Hindola
Hindola falls in the months of Ashadh or Shravan in the Hindu calendar. During this month, devotees swing Lord Swaminarayanbapa Swamibapa on a beautifully decorated swing adorned with different themes. The theme is based on the innovation of the disciples.
This year the Hindola Utsav commenced on the 2nd of August (Ashadh Vad Bij) and will conclude on the 31st of August (Shravan Vad Bij).

He is the heir to Acharya Shree Purushottampriyadasji Swamishree Maharaj, and sixth in the lineage of ascetic Acharyas, which descends directly from Lord Shree Swaminarayan.
