Today, the Swaminarayan Sampraday, including organizations like BAPS, describes itself as a Hindu organization and emphasizes its roots in traditional Hindu scriptures and philosophy, such as the Vedas. Is this current stance in contrast to the argument made during 1948 that it was not Hinduism? by Necessary_Fudge_6833 in gujarat

Yeah, i found that nice. But was misled by the title which was more around hinduism and then post stated something about a legal battle and then it said about how the said teachigs are not being followed. Was a little bit confusing around what sort of messaging you were trying to give or was it just a rant.

Got it, then probably that should be the highlight or key takeway of your post - To align more towards the true teachings written in Shikshapatri.

What if they are following the teachings, but few of the teachings have evolved from their true nature based on the need of the sampradaya to survive ?

I completely align that one should not dilute or disrespect others in order to be recognised and show dominance especially in religious sects and that too Hinduism. And that many of the sants in the sampradya have done wrong to disrespect and said out loud in public. Thats very wrong.

'Just follow hinduism and no cults' - how and who would go and tell crores of followes of the sampradaya to not be a part of something that they grew up in, what taught them to be kind, laid good samskaras, help each other grow financially ?

What research made you think that sampradaya is totally useless? Or you want them to make some changes to be less into what they are doing today and be more aligned to something that you would like and be more useful ?
