Kingdom of God

 


24 April 1984. London, UK. At 11.00 this evening Swamishri stepped into the hallway for his daily walk. The devoted youths chorused the 'Chesta' (songs describing Bhagwan Swaminarayan's daily routine) in happy ringing tones for the next 25 minutes. After his walk, Swamishri lovingly asked Nainesh, a devoted youth, "How are you?" He replied, "I'm fine and very happy in your kingdom." Swamishri, picking up what he had said, "A sadhu does not have a kingdom. God is the sovereign ruler of all the universes. Remember, we are all happy in His kingdom. The more obedient we are to His commands, the more blessed we will become. The more we abide by the moral codes prescribed by Bhagwan Swaminarayan, the happier we will be." Swamishri's poignant message was received with great enthusiasm. Even to this day many visitors to the mandir in Neasden return home impressed by the discipline and moral education of the youths.
