In Hinduism, there are 4 main yugs: Satya Yug, Treta Yug, Dwapar Yug and Kali Yug. Currently, humans are living in Kali Yug. In past, there were many people who called themselves god/bhagwan, and many will take birth and call themselves god, but one should understand god.In this article, with some simple basic knowledge about Hinduism, I will prove why swaminarayan is not the god. Click here to read why BAPS is worst for Hinduism.
Little about myself, I’m an Engineer. Being an Engineer, I believe that there is always reason for everything. I come from Gujarati community. In recent years, swaminarayan has become very popular in Gujarati community, which concerns me a lot. I have strong points to prove that swaminarayan is not the god.
Swaminarayan followers believes that he was incarnation of Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna, himself, was an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Ancient text of “Puranabharati” describes Lord Vishnu’s Dashavatara as follows; Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parashurama, Maryada Purshottam Shri RAM, Purn Purshottam Shri Krishna, Buddha and Kalki; Ved and many other purans also describes most of the avatar. Lord Vishnu is still to incarnate as a Kalki; Kalki will be the 10th and final incarnation of Vishnu, it has been foretold to appear at the end of Kali Yug. Kalki will end Kali Yug and will start new Satya Yug.
- If swaminarayan is incarnation of Krishna, then he would have been ultimately 10th avatar of Lord Vishnu. Looking around current ongoing crisis in the world, anyone can clearly tell that we’re not leaving in Satya Yug. In contrast, for some reason, let’s just believe for a minute that swaminarayan was incarnation of Lord Krishna, then it would make “Dashavatara” story hoax. Either swaminarayan or Dashavatara story is false and fake, one of the story has to be hoax to prove my above theory. I lean towards swaminarayan being fake.
- On side note, during 14th century in West Bengal, India, “Chaitanya Mahaprabhu” spiritual teacher founded Gaudiya Vishanavism. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu followers believe that he was incarnation of Shri Krishna. Sarcastically and statistically speaking, Shri Krishna is due to born any time soon.
Swaminarayan books claim that Lord Hanuman came to swaminarayan, and Lord Hanuman expressed desired to worship swaminarayan for life time.
- When Hanuman Ji after finding the whereabouts of Sita ma, Hanuman Ji went to see Shri Ram at kishkindha. Hanuman Ji told the entire story of what happened in Lanka and how he found Sita ma. Shri Ram asked Hanuman ji for a boon, and Hanuman Ji only asked for following.
नाथ भगति अति सुखदायनी। देहु कृपा करि अनपायनी।।
सुनि प्रभु परम सरल कपि बानी। एवमस्तु तब कहेउ भवानी।।

- Above slok is from Sunderkand (33.1), Hanuman Ji only and only ask for Prabhu Ram’s Bhakti.
Famous sloks from Bhagvat Geeta as follows
Above sloks translate that “Whenever virtue subsides and wickedness prevails, I manifest Myself. To establish virtue, to destroy evil, to save the good I come from Yuga (age) to Yuga”. What adharm swaminarayan destroy? Swaminarayan had a very good relationship with Britishers. Jaliyawala bag kand and cruelty of Britishers are well-known. If swaminarayan is really the god, then why did he not destroy evil Britishers and stopped cruelty from all over the world?? Instead swaminaryan met Britishers more than 1 time, and supported Britishers, because of this millions of innocent people died all around the world. Supporting adharm also makes your adharmi. swaminarayan is nothing but adharmi.
Swaminarayan built temple for himself land given by Britishers. No god ever built temple for themselves. Ram and Krishna both were king, yet they didn’t build temple for themselves. Hindu has tendency to pray to anyone who sits in the temple. Swaminarayan was smart to figure it out, and built a temple for himself.
Mahatma Gandhi’s view on swaminarayan. Mahatma Gandhi is a well-known figure around the world. Mahatma Gandhi also somewhat criticized swaminarayan. On Thursday July 25th, 1918; Mahatma Gandhi wrote letter to Maganlal in which Mahatma Gandhi never addressed swaminarayan as Bhagwan and criticized that swaminarayan tradition is not true vaishnava tradition. Gandhi Ji goes on to mention that swaminarayan all sentimentalism and not to compare swaminrayan traditions with true vaishnav tradition. To read a full article click here
- Even Mahatma Gandhi knew that swaminarayan practice are not true Vaishnava tradition, but current sampraday with hands full of greed made swaminarayan a god.
At times, hindu would involve in violence against Islam, but it is very sad to see that handful sects are dividing our own hindu religion, and made their own god supreme. Hinduism is considered the oldest religion in the world; but the oldest religion has been divided into Buddhism, Sikh, Jainism, and is now on path to divide further. Swamianrayan is also on the same path, we should unite all Hindus by following centuries old traditions and not by following any new modern world traditions.
Very good points. My family still believes in BAPS. I stopped believing in them when I was in high school. Some of my family friend’s daughters were sexually abused by some temple officials in the Hindu temple in Houston. I did not know what happened then. But few years later I came to know that the girls were told to keep quiet by Swami Maharaj himself. Don’t know how true is this but I know that some girls were definitely sexually abused. I couldn’t see BAPS as holy and I decided to stop visiting the temple. Its sad I could not even convince my family about some evil that goes on there.

Please read “Criticism” section
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3ASwaminarayan%2FArchive_4
Several decades after formation of the Arya Samaj movement, Swami Dayananda (1824–1883) questioned the acceptance of Swaminarayan as the Supreme Being and disapproving towards the idea that visions of Swaminarayan could form a path to attaining perfection.[15] Swaminarayan was criticized because he received large gifts from his followers and dressed and traveled as a Maharaja even though he had taken the vows of renunciation of the world.[16] Accused of deviating from the Vedas, his followers were criticized for the illegal collection of wealth and the “practice of frauds and tricks.” In the views of Swami Dayananda, it was a “historical fact” that Swaminarayan decorated himself as Narayana in order to gain followers.
WAS SAHAJANAND THE PUPPET OF BRITISHERS???

Very nice and informative points. Swaminarayan never claimed that he is God. He always taught messages from Vedas, Bhagwat Puran and Geeta. He always spoke about Krishna as supreme lord and about Krishna bhakti.
The only scripture he wrote by himself is Siksha Patri. And in that he repeatedly said that Krishna is the supreme lord and asked to do Krishna bhakti. But somehow, after he passed away, Sadhus of swaminarayan sampraday, came up with idea of making Swaminarayan as supreme lord and came up with Vachanmrut. This was done to retain all the financial and political powers gained during lifetime of Swaminarayana. Would you rather believe what Sawminarayan said himself or what Sadhus wrote after passing of Swaminarayana.
Unfortunately, millions of Swaminarayan followers now believe in Vachanamruta (written by sadhus wanted to keep powers) over Siksha Patri. And in few decades time, they will leave Hinduism and form new religion. Its just matter of time. The same way Buddhists did 2500 years ago, Jains did 2000 years ago and Sikhs did 400 years ago.
Instead of uniting Hinduism in this critical time, Saminarayan sampraday sadly dividing us.

Agreeing to what you have posted, I also came to same conclusion after reading the original Shiksha Patri which clearly says do bhakti of Lord Krishna and everything accordingly only for him.
There were, however, a few points I would like to mention which are all described in the Srimad Bhagvatam already well before Swaminarayan existed:
1. Lord Krishna is the supreme cause of all causes and source of all avatars.
2. He descended only once in this universe and only avatars will follow until the destruction of this universe.
3. There’s clearly a difference between an avatar and the source of all those avatars.
4. Only His, Lord Vishnu’s (including avatars of Lord Ram and Lord Narsimha) and Lord Shiva’s abodes are above Maya. Strictly, all other demi gods are below Maya so people have to take rebirths if they go there.
Now, there were a bit more points but let’s discuss only these for now.
The astonishing thing here to note is, all Swaminarayan followers claim all those 4 points only belong to Swaminarayan. What I am trying to say is, remove words Lord Krishna and insert Swaminarayan in all the points mentioned above.
This is what they’re preaching. Meaning, only Swaminarayan is the source of all avatars, only he’s the supreme being and all others are just demigods whose abodes are below Maya, only Swaminarayan descended for once and his avatars will follow and so on.
Isn’t this amusing? Wait. It doesn’t end here.
Moreover, the BAPS sect “educates” their kids by telling them that their guruji controls all these demigods – basically everyone else who is not Swaminarayan, including Lord Krishna.
Well, I don’t have problem with whatever one believes, but the sad part here is, wherever and wherever I’ve visited the BAPS sect temples, the grown ups and kids, all alike, only consider and give importance to their guruji and not even other Hindu deities. This is mostly because of their illogical and completely incorrect teaching that only Swaminarayan will give them ultimate salvation and all other “demigods” are below Maya. Whereas, the original teachings of Swaminarayan are stating otherwise.

I was observing the comments and the various exchanges on it, well i want to post some comments not as a counter but as an exchange, There is a strong lineage in which the 4 Sampradayas exist, In Vedas from day one there are 4 Sampradayas i.e., Sri, Rudra, kumara and one more i forgot which was directly authorized from Supreme lord himself, The chain formation which goes all the way down till Kali will be considered bonafied and pure, Reason is the instructions passed on from one successor (acharya) to another and is “as-it-is” and there should be no change, so my question is where is Swami Narayan Sampradaya coming from and how its bonafied ?
secondly there are very exalted devotees and acharyas like Sankracharya, Ramanujacharya, Vallabhacharya, Madhavacharya and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu who have accepted Lord Sri Krishna is supreme and there is no compromise, though some acharyas have conflict in school of thoughts like Advaitha or Dwaitha or visistadwaitha etc.,
Lord Sri Krishna incarnates many many times, Das avatara is only the one which is revealed as a divine prophecy as the untampred instructions they knew will only last till end of Kali and you know what i mean, there should be no human interpretation and this knowledge should be understood as-it-is.
Finally Lord himself says in 18th Chapter ” Sarva dharman paritajya mam ekam Sharanam vraj” Please note he says openly “Mam Ekam” and non other.
i am meek and humble devotee, i visit SwamiNarayan temple often but i am very impressed with the enthu the devotees have and as i am a Gujarati i love to be in satsang. however i can’t take off the above instructions out of my mind easily, BTW our lord lived in Dwarka and did so many wonderful Leelas, Ranachod leela, Expanding 16108 times etc., and infact if you are guju irrespective of what you are we greet each other with “Jai Sri Krishna”

But, I myself am Swaminarayana devotee. I am trully sorry on behalf of all Swaminarayana followers. I am married to wonderful wife – a true devotee of Lord Shiva.

Hinduism is only religion which is not even religion but way of life. We respect many many Gods to the extend that I even respect Pastafarianism (Great Spaghetti Bhagwan !!) Ever heard??.
Ofcourse, Ram Bhagwan even didn’t wrote to worship only and only me ( Of course Krishna Bhagwan did). And at time of Lord Swaminarayana, its Kalyug. Ofcourse he was not foolish to tell people I am Bhagwan and worship me. People were not fool that time. He did Leelas or else nobody would in this era can believe self claimed Bhagwan. Many powerful saint studied him closely and then said he is Bhagwan himself. But, to some eyes he was just social worker. Not God !! Belief thing.
