BAPS Swaminarayan Prakash 17+

Swaminarayan Prakash is the official registered monthly magazine of the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha, a globally renowned spiritual organization dedicated to fostering spirituality, values, and community service. This esteemed magazine was first published in 1938 on the auspicious day of Sharad Purnima, marking the beginning of a legacy that has inspired millions of readers over the decades.


Released on the 1st of every month, Swaminarayan Prakash has consistently served as a beacon of moral guidance, cultural enrichment, and spiritual enlightenment. Its primary aim is to instil and strengthen the values of shil (moral values), samskar (cultural refinement), bhakti (devotion), and upasana (worship) among its readers. For over eight decades, it has been a cherished resource for those seeking to deepen their connection to the teachings and principles of the Swaminarayan Hindu tradition.


This magazine holds the distinction of being the oldest and most historic publication within the Swaminarayan Sampradaya and the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha. Its pages are filled with articles, insights, and stories that not only preserve the rich heritage of the Swaminarayan faith but also present its timeless messages of Hinduism and global faith traditions in a manner relevant to the challenges and opportunities of modern life.


One of the unique features of Swaminarayan Prakash is its integration with the Swaminarayan Satsang Patrika, a bi-weekly publication that was launched in 1955 by Brahmaswarup Yogiji Maharaj Swami Gyanajivandasji, one of the revered spiritual leaders of the Swaminarayan tradition. The Satsang Patrika served as a vital source of spiritual inspiration and practical guidance for devotees. In 2001, it was seamlessly incorporated into Swaminarayan Prakash, enriching its content and making it an even more comprehensive spiritual resource.
