@tammy.n.t: BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham in Robbinsville, New Jersey is a large Hindu mandir (temple) built between 2015 and 2023 by the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha, which venerates Swaminarayan (1781–1830) as the highest manifestation of Purushottama (Vishnu). It is by a significant margin the largest Hindu mandir in the Western Hemisphere, and the second-largest in the world.The Grand Centerpiece The central shrine is dedicated to its founders Swaminarayan and Gunatitanand Swami, worshiped together as Akshar Purushottam Maharaj (supreme God). The Akshardham was initiated by BAPS's fifth spiritual leader, Pramukh Swami Maharaj, and is one of the three Akshardham mandirs constructed by the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha; the other two are in New Delhi and Gandhinagar in India. Traditional Hindu Mandir The Akshardham campus also contains the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir (Robbinsville, New Jersey), a smaller traditional shikharbaddha mandir built between 2010 and 2014; and further Nilkanth Plaza, a welcome center, a vegetarian cafe, the BAPS Swaminarayan Research Institute, a museum, and an event center. #temple #swaminarayan #hindi #fyp #culture
