Smruti Mandir (Ahmedabad)

India / Gujarat / Vatva / Ahmedabad
 smruti, do not draw title

Our beloved Acharaya Swamishree built Shree Muktajeevan Swamibapa Smruti Mandir in memory of his Guru our beloved Shree Muktajeevan Swamibapa.

Swamibapa gave darshan on this earth for 72 years. Smruti Mandir is 72 foot in height, there are 72 columns and has 72 steps.

When first entering the grounds of Smruti Mandir, you first receive the darshan of the divine charnavind of Jeevanpran Swamibapa within a chhateri. Millions and millions of the "Swaminarayanbapa Swamibapa" mantra were written in celebration of the opening of the mandir in 1991, and these are held within this chhateri.

The mandir was opened in 1991 by Dr Shankardayal Sharma the then president of India.

On entering the actual mandir the first murti you see is that of our beloved Acharya Swamishree.

On entering the ground floor you can see Swamibapa na tap na murti. Upon having the darshan of this murti all your thoughts disappear and you become immersed in the beauty of this peaceful murti.

On the first floor the marbles murtis of our guruparampara can be found.

On every floor of the mandir, the history of our satsang can be seen through pictorial images.

    I visited to this temple once when I was little with my parents. My parents took me there because it has elephants just before you enter the temple. The elephants have water fountain in their trunks so as a little kid, it was amazing sight to visit. I knew nothing about Swaminarayan nor did I believe in it. I went there only because it has great water works, gardens and all the flowers in the garden and everything you can possibly like in your childhood. Now that I have grown up and caught in all sorts of trouble that everyone does in their early 20s. Time to time I visit this temple, as soon as I enter the land of this temple, all my worries-family tension-personal problems and so on , seems to disappear and I feel eternal peace here. THAT'S WHY PROBABLY IT IS CALLED "WORLD PEACE CENTER" and I agree to it. I started to bring my friends here as well and they felt the same thing as I did so now from time to time we almost go there every week atleast once if not any more and just spend 2-3 hrs there to take a break from our regular world and to feel something extra-ordinary which I have never felt anywhere else but here. Not just me but even my friends have felt that Lord presides here forever as soon as we enter the temple, all our bad thought , language and bad habits becomes good and clear and we just feel that we are different human beings. I recommend anyone who's looking for eternal peace, you don't need to go anywhere else - visit this temple and I can assure you and guarantee you that you will agree with me. I am not trying to promote any temple or anything here as I am not really a Swaminarayan - though I have started to believe in it because of this temple - but I just shared my great experience and I just talked about my second home as of now.
