Desh Vibhag Lekh
The Desh Vibhag Lekh is a document written by Swaminarayan in 1827 establishing the division of the Swaminarayan Sampradaya into two dioceses by territory of Ahmedabad and Vadtal.: 188 This document is highly regarded by the two diocese as it establishes Acharyas as the successors to Swaminarayan. Groups that regard sadhus over acharyas downplay the importance of the Lekh as an administrative document.
It was dictated by Sahajanand Swami himself and written by Sadhu Shukmuni in the Darbar of Khachar Dada Ebhal at Gadhada in the year 1826. It was translated into English by Geo. P Taylor in 1903. It has been accepted as such by the Bombay High Court as valid document.
