Guru Mantra

Guru mantra is a mantra given to devotees by Acharya Maharajshree. One should take this mantra when they have a steadfast belief in bhagwan. When taking your Guru Mantra you must vow to follow 5 Vartman. Guru mantra is essential without it salvation is very difficult to achieve.

Once the mantra is received it must be recited everyday in your pooja. This is done like a normal mala the only difference is that every bead you take instead of reciting Swaminarayan you recite the mantra.

The mantra used is from the Vedas

Guru mantra was given to Ramanand swami by Ramanujacharya in his dream at Shreerangkshetra. He knew this dream was true as in the dream Ramanujacharaya had marked swamijis body with gopichandan. When swamiji woke up the gopichandan was present on his body.
