What is
left with a person who has given his
all?
Nothing. Nothing but himself. And that
himself is everything.
It is an ocean of goodness, of purity and
humility, a summary of spirituality.
And that alone has inspired many people of
all faiths throughout the
world.
Pramukh
Swami Maharaj is the fifth spiritual
successor of Bhagwan
Swaminarayan and the present leader of the
BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha.
He leads an austere life of lifetime
celibacy. Representing the essence of
Hinduism, his compassion for humanity,
universal wisdom and striking
simplicity have touched many world
religious and national leaders.
But most important is his quiet,
undisturbed love for God which rises
beyond
all borders of nation, race and
religion.
Today under the
guidance and inspiration of Pramukh Swami
Maharaj,
followers of the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha
begin their day with prayers and
meditation, lead upright, honest lives and
donate regular hours in serving
others. A life totally free of alcohol,
addictions, adultery, meat and impurity
of
body and mind comprise their five main
vows. Such pure morality and
spirituality forms the foundation of over
160 humanitarian services performed
by the BAPS Swaminarayan
Sanstha.
