Akshardham
means the divine abode of God.
It is hailed as
an eternal place of devotion, purity and peace.
Swaminarayan Akshardham
at New Delhi is
a Mandir – an abode of God,
a Hindu house of worship,
and a spiritual and cultural campus
dedicated to devotion, learning and harmony.
Timeless Hindu spiritual messages,
vibrant devotional traditions
and ancient architecture
all are echoed in its art and architecture.
The mandir is a humble tribute to
Bhagwan Swaminarayan (1781- 1830),
the avatars, devas and great sages of Hinduism.
The traditionally-styled
Swaminarayan Akshardham complex
was inaugurated on 6 November 2005
with the blessings of
HH Pramukh Swami Maharaj
and through the devoted efforts
of skilled artisans and volunteers.
