Gopalanand Swami

On the left of Bhagwan Swaminarayan stands an image of Gopalanand Swami. He was a senior disciple and renowned scholar of Bhagwan Swaminarayan, and is recognised as aksharmukta – a liberated soul. 

At a young age he had mastered Ashtang Yoga, the complete eight steps of Yoga that culminates in God-realisation. His open palm gesture is known as the varad mudra. It signifies the offering of prayers. 

Now make your way to the shrine on your far right and then press next.
