“Service unto Mankind, Devotion unto God”

About HSAPSS New Zealand

Haridham Sokhda Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (HSAPSS) is a spiritual and humanitarian organization founded in 1974 by His Divine Holiness Pragat Guruhari P.P. Hariprasad Swamiji Maharaj.

Rooted in the Swaminarayan faith, our mission is to cultivate Atmiyata (spiritual harmony), Suhradbhav (universal brotherhood), and Samp-Ekta (unity) — serving individuals, families, and communities regardless of background.

With over 500 centres worldwide, HSAPSS New Zealand brings this legacy of devotion and service to Aotearoa — connecting families through weekly satsang, youth programs, cultural festivals, and community seva.

“O Lord! Whether the other person becomes Atmiya or not, please make me Atmiya!”

— P.P. Hariprasad Swamiji Maharaj
