The growth, strength and inter- supportiveness of these four pillars are key to spreading of the Swaminarayan Faith. Lord Shree Swaminarayan has acknowledged these pillars and laid down the key responsibilities for each of the pillars. He instructed his Nand-Santos to write Shastras which helped the devotees to perform devotion (Bhakti), acquire true knowledge (Gnan), practice righteous living (Dharma) and develop non- attachment to every thing material except Supreme God, Lord Shree Swaminarayan (Vairagya). There are nine types of bhakti, of which, Lord Shree Swaminarayan has singled out Kirtan Bhakti as one of the most important and fundamental in our devotion to God. -

For the welfare of society he toured along with his followers but the public was in darkness and used to believe in blind faith and was totally ignorant of Sanskar. He thought that if their sufferings are removed and their mental health is improved it want listen to religious preaching so he started digging wealth and ponds for drinking water he stopped the violence carried out in the name of religions and set free the kings and his yes men from the clutches of vices and removed rotten ill customs. -
Philosophy That Grants All Equal Rights to Moksha
Satsang Pragna 3 Essay 1 Philosophy that grants all equal rights to Moksha ‘Aksharpurushottam Darshan’ is a philosophy of Parabrahman Swaminarayan. Philosophy means right understanding. The right of philosophy is not limited to the scholars of scriptures or to those who have proficiency in Sanskrit or English language. The doors of philosophy are open to everyone. A person, who can milk a cow without giving any sufferings to the cow, is considered the philosopher scholar of that task. A person who can cook pure, delicious, and digestible food is considered the master of cooking. A person might not have an education in school, college, or university, but that person might be an expert, scholar or philosopher in his/her own field. This is the fact, and there are thousands of examples in the world. Spiritual philosophy is similar and is called ‘Brahmavidya’. Brahmavidya is the key for ultimate happiness for all human beings. The doors of Brahmavidya are open for everyone. Everyone has equal right of Brahmavidya. Brahmavidya is far beyond the differences of egoistic racism, the differences of homemaker and ascetic, the differences of gender. Brahmavidya is for everyone. The real spirituality welcomes everyone equally. ‘Akshar Purushottam Darshan’ is the philosophy of Parabrahman Lord Swaminarayan that benefits all human kind. All aspirants have rights for the philosophy. It means it is theoretically accepted that this philosophy is worth achieving. In this article, we’ll learn more about this theory. Shri Hari has addressed ‘one who wishes to’, meaning Shri Swaminarayan Bhagwan has permanently left all the doors open for everyone with equal values without seeing the differences of cast, and is very clearly seen in these words Therefore, ‘Aksharpurushottam Darshan’ is the philosophy that is beneficial to everyone and is for the well-being of everyone. -
