BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Vaishali Nagar
BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Rajkot, Gujarat, is a revered Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Swaminarayan. Located on Kalavad Road, this temple is part of the Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS), a global spiritual organization promoting faith, service, and harmony.
The temple follows the Swaminarayan Sampradaya, founded by Bhagwan Swaminarayan, and is built using Ancient Vedic Shilpa Shastra techniques, ensuring that no contemporary building materials were used in its construction. The temple is adorned with Ambaji marble, Makrana marble, and Udaipur pink marbles, giving it a stunning architectural appeal.
The pink stone used in its construction was sourced from Bansipahadpur in Rajasthan, similar to the stone used in Akshardham at Gandhinagar. Inside the temple, visitors can find three shrines. The first shrine houses an idol of Harikrishna Maharaj, made from Panchdhatu, an alloy of five metals.
The central shrine features Lord Swaminarayan, Mul Akshar Gunatitanand Swami, and Gopalananda Swami, while the third shrine contains the idol of Ghanshyam Maharaj.
