Nirdosh buddhi is the divine acceptance that God is the all-inspirer and all-doer. It is not looking at the faults of others, criticising or gossiping.  

When we try to focus our minds on God we find that our minds are filled with thoughts of the day, activities that we need to do or problems that may be worrying us. We have to stretch our minds to stay in God whereas worldly thoughts flow freely. But we see that Guruhari Param Pujya Pappaji and the swaroopo

Sarvopari no aashro is the complete refuge in the supreme God. It is the total reliance on Him just as a child relies upon its parents without any doubt or reservation. It is the realisation that every second of every minute of every day that He is the all-doer (Vach. Jetalpur 5). We are the most fortunate of all as

  In order to stay in God, when we have a free moment, we can: do dhun (chant the Swaminarayan mantra) do smruti (remember Guruhari) do antardrashti (introspect within)

Lord Swaminarayan has the desire to make one million Manvar ships full of souls free from Kal, Karma, Maya, and to make each and every soul there a guaranteed member of Akshardham. The only condition for such liberation is Sambandh Yog, that is, the contact with a Gunatit Sadhu either by deliberate surrender or by accidental contact.   To put this into
