Sahajanand Swami has come down from Akshardham for the salvation of his devotees. Along with himself, he brought Dhaam name Gunatitanand Swami. He also brought down with him his choicest devotees as well as his divine powers.

Furthermore, we should also chant Lord Swaminarayan s name during other activities, like going on a trip, doing your morning activities, like taking shower, before and after sleeping, eating, drinking, and any other activities that you do.

Akshar Purushottam Maharaj, Pramukh Swami maa vichare aaj; Pramukh Swami maa vichare aaj, Anek jivo naa kalyaan kaaj...jay... In this dhoon we hail to Akshar, who is Gunatitanand Swami and Purushottam who is Sahajanand Swami. And whoever believes in this will attain Akshardhaam. Today Akshar Purushottam Maharaj resides in Pramukh Swami Maharaj. And through residing in him, he is helping people in getting their salvation.

4 Dhoon - 4 Lagni Laagi Mune Lagni laagi mune Swaminarayan naam ni re Shri Ghanshyam ni Gunatit dhaam ni Bhagatji Maharaj ni Shastriji Maharaj ni Yogiji Maharaj ni Pramukh Swami Maharaj ni The joy grows leaps and bounds when I hear the name of Swaminarayan. Other names that also make me joyful are Ghanshyam, Gunatitanand Swami, Bhagatji Maharaj, Shastriji Maharaj, Yogiji Maharaj, and Pramukh Swami Maharaj.

5 Dhoon - 5 Preme Prem Thi Bolo Preme prem thi bolo, Swaminarayan bhagawan.

Some of the names are Narayan, Purushottam, Paramatmaa, Parabrahma. Gunatitanand Swami, Sahajanand Swami s living place also has lot of names like Swami, Akshar, Brahma, and Aatmaa.

7 Dhoon - 7 Swaminarayan Naam Swaminarayan naam maaraa vahaalaa (2) Swaminarayan narayan (2) Swaminarayan naam. Sarvopari Ghanshyam maaraa vahaalaa (2) Swaminarayan narayan (2) Swaminarayan naam. Neelkanth naam dharnaar maaraa vahaalaa (2) Swaminarayan narayan (2) Swaminarayan naam. Sahajanand Samarath maaraa vahaalaa (2) Swaminarayan narayan (2) Swaminarayan naam.

8 Dhoon - 8 Swaminarayan Swaminarayan Swaminarayan Swaminarayan, Swaminarayan Swaminarayan, Harikrushna vina dukh kon hare, Ghanshyam vina sukh kon kare Jena mukh maa Swami nu naam nathi, Teno Akshardhamama vaas nathi Ahamta mamata abhiman tajo, Bhav taran Bhakti kumar bhajo The mantra Swaminarayan is praised in order to achieve a state of peacefulness. Shreeji Maharaj has many different names. One of which is Harikrishna, he takes away the pain that we suffer. Another form of Maharaj, Ghanshyam, is the one that brings happiness in the life. The one who doesn t worship the name of Lord Swaminarayan, will not achieve salvation to Akshardham. The worldly attachments, ego, etc must be given up. And that can only be accomplished by chanting the name of Swaminarayan.
