Desh Vibhag Lekh

Satsang | Sanskriti | Seva

The Desh Vibhag Lekh is a document written by Swaminarayan Bhagwan in 1827 establishing the division of the Swaminarayan Sampradaya into two dioceses by territory of Ahmedabad and Vadtal.  This document is highly regarded by the two diocese as it establishes Acharyas as the successors to Swaminarayan.

Purpose
The Lekh has 30 articles, which give the following directions:

Demarcation of the jurisdiction and responsibilities of the two Gadis (Nar Narayan Dev Gadi and LaxmiNarayan Dev Gadi). The Nar Narayan Dev gadi controls the Uttar Desh and Laxminarayan Dev gadi the Dakshin Desh. The demarcation is that the Uttar Desh territory runs from Bhuj to Calcutta and above and the Dakshin Desh territory runs below this line as per this Lekh.
