Aum Shree Sairom!!!
Experiences about school and Bhagwan Baba
Every morning I wake up with a great smile because I love to go to my school. I feel very lucky to be a part of this school. My mother works in this school so I came to know about this school and got admission after completing all the process.
Our school is a free school established with the motto "education for character development," which means education is the only thing which develops the character of a person. Bhagwan Shree Sanjay Sai Baba is the patron of our school. He has established this school to serve the people with quality education for free of cost.
Our school has all the facilities as that of a normal school. I am studying in this school from grade one. Teachers of our school are very friendly and experienced. They teach us very nicely. They also tell the stories about the teachings of Bhagwan Baba. Baba himself visits the school and guides us.
We celebrate different types of programs in our school such as competitions, Guru Purnima, Baba’s birthday celebrations, and many more. Bhagwan Baba teaches us to be kind, helpful. I am very inspired by the teachings of Baba. From my birthday, I offered all to Baba as my small contribution to his mission. I always put tika from Baba in Dashain.
I am very happy to be a student of this school and Bhagwan Baba. I love going to my school and learning new things every day. I have lovely friends, helpful teachers, and kind seniors, which makes my everyday in school much more fun.
Besides all these, I have Bhagwan Baba himself guiding me towards the right paths.
I love my school very much, and thank you Bhagwan Baba for making me a part of your mission and making you proud.
2024 May, Ishan gr9, Dang , Nepal, My Experience with Ssssb, Bhagwan Baba and my school
My experiences with SSSSB
I joined SSSSB 4 years ago. It was a day before Guruji Daju's Birthday. Since then I am a part of SSSSB. After joining SSSSB there are a lot of changes in my life. Before joining SSSSB I could not control my anger but now I am able to control my anger. There are a lot of positive changes in my life. Now I am able to think positive and focus on a thing very nicely.
My experience with Bhagwan Baba
I have been to Baba’s Ashram only once. It was about 2 years ago. I went to Ashram with Reshma Ma'am. We arrived late at Ashram and Baba has already started his pravachan. I went and sat in a place in the ashram without any seat but one of the Sairam saw me and offered me his seat. Then I sat on the seat. Then Baba gave pravachan about Mahabharat. Then I ate the parshad made at the ashram. I came to know that Baba has made this parshad and it was very tasty.
My experience about my school
The name of my school is Kashi Noble Academy. I have been reading in this school since class 2. It has been six years. When I joined soul blossom I was in class 4. After joining SSSSB I quit playing mobile games which saved a lot of my time for reading and studying. I am utilizing this time to complete my homework and play physical games. Because of this class, I am one of the most physically active students in my class, and my students reading in my class are not good. They speak rudely and their behavior is not good. So I am proud being a soul blossom student.
2024 May, Sunil Marapin, Coordinator Ssssb and chairmen Holland chapter. [My Experience with Ssssb, Bhagwan Baba and School or Work
Experiences with SSSSB, Swami, and with school or work SSSSB:
The "Shri Sanjay Sai Soul Blossom" SSSSB program is a program that has the potential, if the teachers involved apply it themselves and continue to develop constantly, to make all the people who manage the program a little bit and especially apply it in practice to make themselves and thereby also the world even better. Of course, there are more programs in the world that also have a good influence on our character maintenance and growth. As the international coordinator of the SSSSB program, I call on everyone to at least study it a little and especially apply it in practice to experience its influence themselves. The program is not only intended for students, but for everyone. If there are schools and organizations in the world that do not pay attention to character maintenance and improvement, then the SSSSB program is a perfect addition to make the organization and the participants even more complete. I invite everyone to come and see, investigate and participate in the weekly Zoom-online family classes.
Experiences with Swami / Bhagwan Baba:
About Swami, I can be brief. Swami is the same energy that came as Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, and Lord Parthi Sai. It is best to investigate and experience for yourself. It would be a shame if you did not at least investigate Swami and experience what is going on.
Experiences with school and work:
SSSVM is a school that, in addition to regular education, is also focused on further improving the characters of the students and all those involved. Everywhere character maintenance and improvement come first, and where our words, thoughts, and actions are more and more connected, there will be super-fast and super-abundant success in all areas. Today's sorrow and discord will eventually disappear like snow in the sun. If you are not students or staff of SSSVM, you can participate in the family classes so that you can at least experience the positive influence of this program. Om Sairam. Thank you, Swami.
2024 May, Bandana gr10 My Experience with Bhagwan Baba
1.Experience with Bhagwan Baba.
Om Shree Sairam! My humble pranam at the holy divine lotus feet of Bhagwan Baba. I have known bhagwan for 7 years. My mother told me that we will shift to another school and there is one baba and when i heard baba i think baba means that bhole baba so i was so scared to meet him. I had already given the entrance exam and only the interview was left and me and my mother went to the interview. While going to school I was so scared to meet Baba but when I reached school and saw Bhagwan Baba I felt so relaxed and I was not scared anymore. In the interview Bhagwan Baba laughed while seeing my report card because there was only A+. When we joined the school , my brother forgot to wear an Identity Card and Bhagwan Baba called us in his office and we both said sir to Bhagwan Baba and he laughed and said don't tell me sir and we again said ‘ok sir’. He and the teacher laughed so hard. It was such a beautiful moment. One day I forgot to wear a scarf while going to the ashram and when bhagwan baba came to take flowers he called me and asked ‘Where is your scarf?’ and I said that I forgot to wear it and he slowly beat in my head. One of my friends said that BHagwan Baba gave you a blessing by hitting on your head and protecting you and I was so blessed. And on my birthday when I went to give chocolate to Bhagwan Baba he said ‘ Today is rabbit birthday’ and all of us laughed. When I talk with Bhagwan Baba I feel so relaxed and when he sings bhajan I forget all my sadness and I enjoy bhajan. I am so lucky to read in this school and blessed to have Bagwan Baba’s hand on my head.
THANK YOU!

1.Experience with school S.S.S.V.M.
Om Shree Sairam! My humble pranam at the holy divine lotus feet of Bhagwan Baba. For 7 years I have been reading this school S.S.S.V.M. I started reading in this school when I was in Grade-3 and now I am in grade-10. These 7 years went by so quickly. I read grade-1 and 2 in Pacific Secondary School and I can see that there are many differences in this school and my previous school. In my previous school teachers only focused on the study related to books but in this school teachers not only focused on teaching the thing related to books but also mantras, bhajan and moral values. As the motto of our school is ‘ Education For Character Development’ this school helps students to develop their character and behavior. Compared to other schools this school is very good and better for all the people and the teachers are also loving, caring and understanding.
THANK YOU!
2024 May, Sanu Ma'am [Parent, Poem Sssvm]
Ai: The image contains a beautiful Nepali poem. Here's the text transcribed from the image:
जन्मै कसम सरी खेला
आऊँछौ तिमी साई दूत बनी
सफा गरिदिन्छौं मनको फोहोर
बस्छौं तिमी सुलुक्कै बनी॥
तिमीले केको सबै ज्ञान
बस्ने सधैंमा आत्मबल बनी
बढाई हाम्रै जागर तिमीले
पतक्कै टं शनिबार कहिले आउँछौ भनौ॥
हाम्रो लागि मिहिनेत कति
सबै काममा भरी गुण बनी
तिम्रो अभियानमा साथी बन्छौं सधैं
बस्छौं तिमी मन मनमा ज्ञानको ज्योति बनी।
This poem seems to praise a figure (possibly a guru or a spiritual entity), who cleanses minds, brings light, and serves as a companion in the journey of life. The words express devotion, enlightenment, and a sense of eternal support. Beautifully written!

About my Swami experience
It has been more than a year I have joined soul blossom class. When I was small, I was too weak due to fever. My parents took me to many hospitals, but I couldn’t be fine. Then my parents took me to Balaji and Pashupatinath. There I got Bhagwan Baba's blessing. After 13 years, I became a member of the SSSS blossom class of Sanjay Sai Baba. Although I cannot meet with Swami, I always love Swami forever.
2024 March, Aaryan Chalagian, Student gr 6, Nepal
My experience of being a student of SSSSB
"Om Shree Sairam, my humble pranam at the holy divine lotus feet of Bhagwan Shree Sanjay Sai Baba. I’m Aaryan Chalagian, here to share my experience of being a student of SSSSB."
First of all, introducing SSSSB, it is a program to blossom the values already present in each of us in manners of thinking, talking, etc. When I first listened about it, I was shocked. The online class, where we can learn the moral values. It taught me about love, truth, dharma, peace, punctuality, non-violence, and right behavior that should be shown to all creatures. Teachers here teach us to choose the right way to live life and help us to forget our sorrow, unhappiness, and worries. It helps our body to be focused.
Similarly, it helps in developing right communication skills, problem-solving logic, leadership, teamwork, and involves us in new research. It also promotes our creativity by giving points in SSSSB sites by our teachers. Our teachers — Meena ma’am, Neerana ma’am, Lijta ma’am, Kureshma ma’am, Reshma ma’am, Gurudayi, and other gurus — help us to develop our self-confidence and teach us about the need for hard work for better results.
SSSSB develops good manners. According to research, it is said that it takes 7 weeks to win over a new habit, but SSSSB has something which makes us able to do it in just a few days.

My experience on SSSSB class
When I heard about this class I wanted to join this class. When I joined this class I did not know anyone. When I started going for some years, I felt a change in me. The moral stories give me positive vibes, and games, which increase my intelligence. This class has had increased my level. This class is a class that makes me feel confident to speak. It increases our mental health and concentration power. This class has improved me on my confidence level, concentration, and mental health.

“This is my experience with Soul Blossom.
I used to have some bad habits, like occasionally forgetting to bring a book.
I also lacked concentration power. However, I have now gained better concentration, and I no longer forget my books and copies.
I am now able to practice meditation every day.”

"As a SSSSB student, I’ve learnt many things till now. Being humble, dedicated towards the work, loving nature and one of the most important is service to mankind. Not only mine but I find it very crucial in everyone’s life. As we know, every good step we take for us is always beneficial for us. So, it makes us to be responsible towards our duty and successful for our dream. Soul blossom is not just only an organization or a class, it is something which not every individual can know the worth. It is a platform that can nourish the talent every students have. Only thing I don’t like about this class is it ends. It is the only reason where we get connected and learn a lot.
Talking about myself, I’ve experienced a lot of transformation inside me during this entire time. Being connected to this class directly or indirectly makes me feel amazed every time."

2024 January, Siddhant, gr5 Student SSSVM, Nepal
"Now, this is my experience at school. On the first day, there was a sports meet.
I went to school and sat in the assembly line.
I participated in the assembly and then went to my class.
I spent some time there, and Swami came to the school.
We lined up house-wise and performed a march past in front of him.
Afterward, there was a demonstration game in front of Swami, and at that moment, Swami blew the whistle.
All the students became very happy."
2024 January, Shristi Timalsina, bachelor student, passed out student SSSVM Nepal
“SSSVM, my second home. Two years as a student and 3 years as an alumna. I've had so many experiences from my school life. From making new friends to the disappointment of being parted from them. School life had taught me a lot. Action with discipline, words with humility, and work with dedication. This includes every point to be included. To be honest, I was not the mischievous child in school. I used to be very afraid. I was not allowed to go out with friends except for school. So, luckily, a deusi vailo program was organized from school. It was the first time I realized how beautiful it was to enjoy with friends and represent the culture. It was the most memorable moment of my life. After passing out also, I've never felt like I am away from here. I'm becoming more and more closer to school day by day. Programs, picnics, mee%ngs always keep making our way back to our lovely home, SSSVM.”

2024 January, Bandana gr9, Student SSSVM Nepal
My Heart-work of January 6, 2024
What kind of lesson would you create if you were the SSSSB guru of this class??
"Om Shree Sairam! This SSSSB class is running very nicely. In my point of view, this class is very good and interesting. There are bhajan and games, and there is at least one topic to discuss. The classes that happened till now are very great and it is the best class for all people all people should join to learn moral values and other things for their development of character, behavior, etc.
I think this class doesn't need improvement because the class is managed properly from time to time and it has great rules and regulations, plans, etc. But if I were the guru of this SSSSB class I would ask and tell students as well as Gurus and Teachers to share their views and experiences related to topics. I will try to increase students’ confidence to talk something about the topic. I will encourage them to share and show their skill and talent like dancing, singing, drawing, etc. I will continue this class like Guru Daju and the Team. This class was nice, is nice, and will be nice forever. This class is very important for all people."

2023 January, Sadikshya gr7, Student SSSVM Nepal
"My experience with soul blossom class is in soul blossom class the gurus teach me human values, how to be disciplined and puntual student, etc.
This class helps me to be good student . There are also lots of interesting topics, games, bhajans,etc.
In this class lots of students and other people's are joining."
"My experience with guru daju is he opens this class to everyone. He is very good teacher and he search lots of games, topics, etc. for all."

2023 January, Samikshya gr4, Student SSSVM Nepal
"Sairam everyone, I am Samikshya from Grade 4
My experience with guru daju is he is very good teacher. Because he opens the soul blossom classes for all the students, family and other people. When some students have maths problem he helps them. He teach the students very nicely"

2022 November, Prashanti, Sai youth, Biratnagar, Nepal
"My experience in Soul Blossom class is very good. When I joined first I never thought I would be so attached to my soul blossom family. When I lost my father before 1 yr we were really bad with our mental conditions specially my mom but through an SSSSB guru I got contact with this Soul Blossom family. It helped my mom a lot. Weekly bhajans, games and a value topic made our mind fresh and stable.
Soul blossom is not only class its my second family .
Special thanks to Bhagwan Baba and to all the entire gurus, ,brothers and sisters. Om Sairam"

2022 November, Sidhdhima gr8, Student from Biratnagar Nepal
"First of all sairam and koti koti pranam to Lord Shree Sanjay Sai Baba lotus feet.
My experience in the SSSSB class is so amazing. I make there so many friends and family. I feel so happy when i join Soul Blossom🌸 class. When i join Soul Blossom class it remove my negative energy and bring positive energy towards me. I learn so many good habits, bhajan (devotional and value songs), how to handle with daily issues etc etc. My Soul Blossom family are the only one who understood me so well in a short period. Thank you so much my Soul Blossom family from the bottom of my heart.
I love you all so much and thank you so much for being with me in every situation. Om Sairam"

2021 June, Rama Ma'am, Soul Blossom guru from Nepal
"Soul blossom class is the program for students, parents and relatives. It was started in 2019 in Katunje Bhaktapur under Sairam foundation by using the principle of Shree Sanjaya Sai Sewa Organization. The main aim of this class is to uplift spiritual knowledge, educational performance and social values in students.
SB classes are sustained program through creative performance by students.
We are committed to our motto of Shree Sanjaya Sai Sewa Organization, Nepal. Love All Serve All, Help Ever Hurt Never."
"I have noticed the positive changes to the students through SB class. This class really helps the students to differentiate between right and wrong behavior. Furthermore, students can think in creative and innovative way."
Dec. 2020: Soul Blossom Guru and SSSVM teacher, Nepal
Dec. 2020, Ram, 14 years old, student Noble House, Nepal
"First of all we learnt five human values in soul blossom classes. They are love, peace, truth, non-violence and right conduct. These are the 5 rules we should follow to get closer to god. We learn many other things related to these 5 human values. I am in soul blossom class since 4 years. We all know these 5 rules or values and we also know that these are very beneficial for us. We think we do not need such classes to know about these values cause we have been taught similar things from our family too. But most of the time we do not follow even 1 important value among 5. Soul Blossom class really helped me apply these values in my daily life and I will be lying if I said there were no change after I started applying it into my life. Knowledge isn't the only important thing but also applying it into our lives and I think Soul blossom lessons help us to apply the knowledge we already knew so that we can be a better human being."
Dec. 2020, after 10 weeks Soul Blossom class: Bandana, 12 years old, student SSSVM, Nepal
"I like Soul Blossom class very much. This class is very important than academic class. If we follow all the things that we learn in SBc, then we will obviously achieve success. This class teach us spiritual things as well as human values."
Dec. 2020, after 10 weeks Soul Blossom class:
Shristi, 15 years old, student SSSVM Nepal
"Being a student of Soul Blossom class I am very happy and lucky. Get to know many things after joining this class. I learn human values and way of character development. Truth in words, Determination in work and Discipline in life. Learn the self-realization process."
"Not only that, I learn to see the positive aspect of life from which negative will be solved easily."
Dec. 2020, after 4 years Soul Blossom class:
Laxman, 14 years old, student Nobel House, Nepal
"My name is Laxman Phuyal. I have been a student of soul blossom since 4 years. I have experienced a lot of good things in Soul Blossom class. Sudden good change were not seen in the beginning but after few years my behavior changed gradually. I learned so many things at soul blossom class. Before I was a student of Soul Blossom I was not very intellectual and spiritual but after I joined soul blossom, I changed a lot in good aspects".
"Before, I was unsatisfied and unhappy all the time. But after practicing Soul Blossom lessons I learned to be happy in small things too. I learned to focus on good things and eradicate negative things from my life. I learned how to make good choices and I think Soul blossom is important for every growing youths. Thank you."
Dec. 2019: Sunil Marapin (Guru Daju),
Soul Blossom Guru, Holland
"The difference in character between students of the Soul Blossom classes and the other students is noticeable in the community".
"It is the greatest blessing to be able to bring Bhagawan Baba's Soul Blossom program along with other teachers (gurus) to as many people as possible."
"If the education institutions or any other organization integrate the Soul Blossom program into the program of the organization, growth of peace, love and goodness, will be noticeable within a few months."
"We all have the same goal in life. I learn a lot from each student. The students, gurus and others who practice what we discuss in the Soul Blossom classes inspire me the most."
Dec. 2019, after 5 weeks Soul Blossom class:
Shivani, 8 years, student, Holland
"I really like the value classes. I learn new things. My teacher Uncle Sunil is nice and explains things calmly. My teacher also helps with homework and with other questions I have. I usually being the only student, I like these. If more children come to the class later, I am afraid that they will be not quiet, and therefore maybe its will be not so fun as now."
2018: Gauri Maiya Karmarmacharya, parent
"In my opinion, this class succeeds in helping children develop skills to deal with the current situation in the world of today. I am happy that my daughters participate in the Soul Blossom project".
"Value-based education has great relevance for today. The world has become hectic than ever and I feel that the children get to much stress because of this."
2018: Mr. Manohar Das Shrestha, parent
"I am satisfied with the Soul Blossom program not only as a project coordinator but also as a parent of my two daughters who are attending the class regular".
"Soul Blossom is a very impactful program. Although character development is a gradual process, participants of this program definitely exhibit several positive changes very soon. I felt it personally."
December 2019: Meghna Shrestha (assistant teacher, Noble House)
"Soul Blossom is an education different from science and technology, it's the spiritual education that maybe won't provide you jobs or money but will grant you immense happiness and satisfaction in life and in my view happiness and satisfaction is more important than temporary money".

My experience on my school
As I have written, this school is also made by Swami. He is a hero of the world in my opinion. This school is also full of positive vibes. My school not only teaches subjects like science, English, and social studies, but it also teaches morals. My school was established in 2068 B.S. My school is a strict school with discipline. Not only that, my school also thinks about our physical health, so they have managed extra-curricular activities like PT, drill, football, basketball, etc.
My school is the best in every part. In my opinion, my school is the best school in the world.
Thank you

"It was a miraculous moment for me! When I see my beloved Shri Sanjay Sai baba in online. I first saw Him in a YouTube video and I thought who is He? Is He a God? For knowing about Him I just search Him on Facebook and connect with His devotees in Nepal. When I hear that He is an Avatar (Incarnation of God) same as Lord Krishna and Lord Rama I became happy that Rama my beloved God is now living near to us."
"Everyday I listen Swami,s song named "Prema mudita manase kaho Ram Ram Ram" Swami is my mother, father, brother and all. Love you Swami forever. ❤❤❤ Raj Narayan from Bangladesh. Class= 9. Science section."


2024 January, Sarita gr9, Student SSSVM Nepal
"When I was 10 years old and gave Entrance in SSSVM [Shree Sanjay Sai Vidhya Mandir] school.
I passed the exam and was ready for an interview with Bhagawan Baba and teachers. I was very excited and nervous to see Him after hearing about Him many times. I saw Him in my interview for the first time.
But now I often see Him and He have provided me the positivity and blessings I need. I was not sure if He was real God or not that time. But now know why He us known as beloved Swami.
I feel blessed to get opportunity like this."
2024 January, Sanu Ma'am, Mother from SSSVM students, Nepal
"Six years back, I was gravely ill and untreatable in hospitals. Despite my devotion to Lord Ganesh, my health worsened, leading to despair and dwindling faith in God.
This struggle, I now see, was a test. At a critical life juncture, my sister introduced me to Bhagwan Baba, suggesting a visit to his ashram. Skeptical at first, I doubted Bhagwan Sheetal's existence.
However, at the ashram, I experienced a shift. Although previously focused on idol worship, I started believing in Bhagwan's human embodiment. This aligned with my earlier devotions to deities, also believed to have human forms.
During a visit, I felt a strong, unexplained pull towards Bhagwan Baba. Our eyes met, and it seemed he understood my deepest questions. His divine discourse answered all my doubts.
This encounter profoundly changed me. I learned to embrace my karma without fear, gaining strength and resilience. In a dream, Swami alleviated my problems, inspiring me to face them. I discovered an unprecedented peace and recognized Bhagwan Baba as my true deity. My illness, I realized, was a divine intervention, leading me to Bhagwan Baba, akin to meeting an avatar."

'I was reading at class one .
We wear at canteen my brother and we were eating the lunch.
Bhagwan Baba was rounding at the canteen we were eating lunch.
Bhagwan baba came near of us and feed us with his divine hand."
2024 January, Shristi Timalsina, bachelor student, passed out student SSSVM Nepal
“It has not been so long I've known Swami physically, but I've been feeling his existence from my birth in other forms.
I've experienced something great on how Swami's one glimpse can change everything.
It was an occasion of Guru Purnima. I was studying in class 9, and I was assigned a job to give a speech on my experience with Swami and School. I had almost prepared my words but was not confident enough to deliver it. I was shivering and was facing difficulty to be present over there. Finally, the patience was over, and my name was called through the microphone. Very frightened, I went to Swami to offer the flower before starting.
Then, I started. After welcoming everyone, it was the time to ask for divine permission to continue furthermore. I was still not confident enough. After asking for permission, I looked at Swami; He nodded and smiled at me as if He was telling me, "Don't be afraid; I'm there for you; just speak confidently." Then I continued with a big smile and with 100% confidence.
It can be one of the proofs of how only a glimpse of Swami can change the circumstances around, and we can be confident enough to tackle everything.”

My experience on Swami
When I joined this school, and when we go to the ashram sometimes, the first time in the bus, my friends—most of them—were thinking who is Baba. When I reached the ashram, I felt positive vibes. When I first saw Swami, the tika (bhibuti) from his hand, I was literally amazed. Then I knew how much power he has. From then, I am believing in Swami. I have also heard many sick people suffering from pneumonia and cancer are also fine because of Swami and his miracle. I thank Swami by my heart because he is doing many sewa and he has opened this school.

Swami has determined on this earth to make the prevalent religious norms and values extremely firm and strong while maintaining Nepali religious, social, and cultural unity and tolerance, which have been intertwined like flesh and blood since time immemorial. Swami intends to move forward fearlessly, keeping the glory and dignity of religion high.
Based on the five human values and beliefs of truth, righteousness, peace, love, and non-violence, the work of awakening the light of unity among all Nepali is being done by Bhagwan Shri Sanjay Sai Baba. For the past 12 years, the organization has been providing free drinking water, thanks to 5,000 liters in the drought-hit areas of Kathmandu. Such services are made available in Bramhatol, Buddhanagar, Koteshwar, Nyagahapanchet, and Hovikhol. On the occasion of the 31st Birthday of Bhagwan Shri Sanjay Sai Baba, about 1,100 villagers were served by installing 100 water pumps in the poor Mushahar villages in Lumbini of Rupandehi district. Also, the distribution of free drinking water is being done in many places of the valley in coordination with Kathmandu Upatyaka Khanepani Limited through the service teams of this ashram.
Swami says, “All human beings should get free health treatment.” Following the words of Swami, on the occasion of Baba’s 22nd Birthday, free surgery and treatment were provided to 42 women suffering from uterine disease at the philanthropic maternity hospital in Sasuyakshnyka, Okavre district.
In this context, the organization continues to move forward to maintain unity, harmony, and mutual love among human beings by continuously carrying out such humanitarian activities to maintain peace in Nepal and maintain mutual love and religious harmony.

My Experience About Swami
First, when my mother tried to take me out of Swami's school, Swami said, "No, he is my child," and what Swami said came real. I thought, "How has this miracle come true?" He has given me an award from his hand. I didn't know he would award me. Soul blossom teachers and Meena Ma'am, Rita Ma'am, Sabita Ma'am, and Sujita Ma'am, Soul blossom teachers love me. Swami helped me to stay in the school. Now, I am happy and want to help Swami in the future.

My name is Uhana Bakhrel. I read in grade 3. Now I am going to say about my experience with Swami. I like when Swami says we should be in discipline, and we should not fight with friends. We should behave good. We should respect our parents, our teachers, brothers, and sisters. I like when Swami comes to our school and blesses us.

Om Shree Sairam, my humble pranams at the holy divine lotus feet of Bhagwan Shree Sanjay Sai Baba.
I am a student of Shree Sanjay Sai Vidhya Mandir. I am a student of grade 6, reading here since two years now. The school SSSVM is not an ordinary school. Our school is different from other schools. We are not only taught about the knowledge from books but the knowledge of Vedas and spiritual knowledge too.
The teachers here are sweet, loving, and they teach us the things in brief while giving us extra knowledge.
The school provides us with various sports and other programs for our fun. The school's motto is "education for character development." Our school has provided free education for more than 500 students.
Our school is trying to change our character with the education. Our school doesn't treat anyone for their religion, caste, etc. Everyone is equal.
Since I have been in this school, I am glad that I am a student here. Me as a student of SSSVM has learned a lot more than only the book's knowledge, and I am thankful to my teachers and Swami.
Thank you

ENGLISH
Om Shri Sai Ram,
As a young boy, I believed that if people helped each other even a little, it would greatly improve the lives of those in need. I imagined that scholars, with their knowledge and wisdom, would have all the answers and be able to guide us on the right path. This belief motivated me to work hard in school, hoping to reach a position where I, too, could make a difference. I had immense respect for my high school teachers, whom I saw as potential saviors of the world.
However, when I began my studies in higher education, I was disappointed to find that many of my professors seemed more focused on themselves than on the world’s problems. This realization was painful, especially as I was already struggling academically. Disillusioned, I stopped attending classes. I would leave home as if going to school, but instead, I would sit in a nearby park, trying to come to terms with this disappointment.
After a few weeks, I decided to find another path to fulfill my desire to contribute to society. I turned to sports, hoping to achieve a platform through tennis from which I could speak to the world. I trained tirelessly from early morning until evening, but after a few years, it became clear that I didn’t have the talent to progress to the professional level I had hoped for.
At that time, I had already learned about Parthi Sai and continued attending gatherings, where I absorbed valuable teachings. However, I didn’t find the creative space there to contribute in the way I believed Parthi Sai intended.
Then, in 2020, Bhagwan Shri Sanjay Sai gave me the opportunity to serve as the International SSSSB Coordinator, a role that felt like the most important and essential position I could hold in today’s world.
Since childhood, I’ve seen spiritual programs as essential, offering knowledge about a meaningful way of life. With the rise of modern technology—TV, phones, and especially the internet—spiritual programs have only grown in significance. Yet, as interest in spirituality has declined among some, Swami’s SSSSB program has become even more vital.
The true purpose of these programs is to inspire a transformation toward a better character. Without this transformation, the program’s mission is incomplete. I see Swami’s SSSSB program as indispensable for all of us, as it brings insight, wisdom, and balance to our lives. By practicing its teachings, we can continuously transform ourselves and move toward perfection.
My role as International SSSSB Coordinator enables me to guide the program for maximum impact, inspiring participants to grow and improve. The effect of the SSSSB program is clearly visible among its dedicated participants; parents, schools, and others who witness the positive changes in children are grateful and willing to support it however they can.
I also want to acknowledge that many other programs from different organizations contribute to the character growth of their participants, working toward a better world. I am deeply grateful to Bhagwan Shri Sanjay Sai Baba for granting me this profound opportunity to serve.
Om Sairam,

Om Shri Sai Ram,
Als jonge jongen geloofde ik dat als mensen elkaar zelfs maar een beetje zouden helpen, dit het leven van degenen in nood enorm zou verbeteren. Ik dacht dat geleerden, met hun kennis en wijsheid, alle antwoorden hadden en ons de juiste weg konden wijzen. Dit geloof motiveerde me om hard te werken op school, in de hoop een positie te bereiken waarin ik ook een verschil kon maken. Ik had enorm veel respect voor mijn leraren op de middelbare school, die ik zag als potentiële redders van de wereld.
Toen ik echter aan mijn hogere studies begon, raakte ik teleurgesteld toen ik ontdekte dat veel van mijn professoren meer gefocust leken op zichzelf dan op de problemen van de wereld. Deze realisatie was pijnlijk, vooral omdat ik al moeite had met mijn studie. Ontgoocheld stopte ik met het bijwonen van lessen. Ik verliet mijn huis alsof ik naar school ging, maar in werkelijkheid zat ik in een nabijgelegen park, worstelend met mijn teleurstelling en zoekend naar antwoorden.
Na een paar weken besloot ik een andere weg te zoeken om mijn verlangen om bij te dragen aan de samenleving te vervullen. Ik wendde me tot sport en hoopte via tennis een platform te bereiken waarmee ik de wereld kon inspireren. Ik trainde meedogenloos, van vroeg in de ochtend tot laat in de avond. Maar na een paar jaar werd het duidelijk dat ik niet het talent had om op het professionele niveau te komen waar ik op had gehoopt.
Op dat moment had ik al kennisgemaakt met Parthi Sai en bleef ik bijeenkomsten bijwonen, waar ik waardevolle leringen opdeed. Toch vond ik daar niet de creatieve ruimte om bij te dragen op de manier die ik geloofde dat Parthi Sai wenste.
Toen, in 2020, gaf Bhagwan Shri Sanjay Sai mij de kans om te dienen als Internationaal SSSSB Coördinator, een rol die voelde als de meest essentiële en betekenisvolle positie die ik in deze wereld kon bekleden.
Sinds mijn jeugd heb ik spirituele programma’s altijd gezien als een cruciaal middel om een zinvol leven te leiden. Met de opkomst van moderne technologie—tv, telefoons en vooral het internet—zijn spirituele programma’s alleen maar belangrijker geworden. Toch is de interesse in spiritualiteit bij sommigen afgenomen, en daarom is Swami’s SSSSB-programma nu relevanter dan ooit.
Het ware doel van deze programma’s is het inspireren van een transformatie naar een beter karakter. Zonder deze transformatie is de missie van het programma onvolledig. Ik zie Swami’s SSSSB-programma als onmisbaar voor ons allemaal, omdat het ons inzicht, wijsheid en balans biedt in het leven. Door deze leringen in de praktijk te brengen, kunnen we onszelf voortdurend transformeren en streven naar volmaaktheid.
Mijn rol als Internationaal SSSSB Coördinator stelt me in staat om het programma zo effectief mogelijk te begeleiden, zodat deelnemers worden geïnspireerd om te groeien en zich te ontwikkelen. De impact van het SSSSB-programma is overduidelijk zichtbaar bij de toegewijde deelnemers. Ouders, scholen en anderen die de positieve veranderingen in kinderen zien, zijn dankbaar en bereid om het programma op alle mogelijke manieren te ondersteunen.
Ik wil ook erkennen dat veel andere programma’s van verschillende organisaties bijdragen aan de karakterontwikkelingvan hun deelnemers en werken aan een betere wereld. Ik ben diep dankbaar aan Bhagwan Shri Sanjay Sai Baba voor deze diepgaande kans om te dienen.
Om Sairam,
Sunil Marapin

Neerana shakya talks about herself and Swami's SSSSB program.
ENGLISH
Om Shree Sai Ram 🙏
As a science student during my school and college years, I did not believe in gods and found the concept of being religious or a dharmatma unappealing. Visiting temples and performing puja sounded mechanical, and the term "spirituality" wasn’t even in my vocabulary. However, I did believe in living a life grounded in simplicity, truthfulness, and a soft-spoken nature. With Swamy’s divine grace, I became involved in his mission from the very beginning, joining the organization as a sewa dal member in the first year of its inception. For Swamy’s 19th birthday celebration, five sewa dal groups were created, and I was honored to be a part of one of them. I regularly attended programs at the Ashram and gradually began internalizing Swamy’s teachings through his divine discourses on Saturdays and special occasions.
Over time, these teachings transformed me into a spiritual person, though the journey took a while. I attribute all this transformation to Swamy’s grace and humbly bow at his divine lotus feet. In 2022, respected Guru Daju invited me to attend the SSSSB classes. Although hesitant at first, as I was not a teacher, I agreed to participate as an observer. Today, I feel deeply grateful to be part of this spiritual family, from which I have learned so much.
I realized that the "Family Class" model is essential in today’s world, where grandparents, parents, and children come together, inspiring each other to learn and live values daily. This communal approach is key to self-transformation. Guru Daju has crafted a complete program package aimed at personal growth and spiritual transformation. SSSSB classes are valuable not only for children but for everyone, adults, as they encompass physical, mental, academic, and spiritual development—essential in today’s world.
Often, we think only elders or teachers guide children. Yet, in SSSSB, we also learn from children, which is truly remarkable. The SSSSB platform encourages us to apply Swamy’s teachings in daily life and inspires us to grow together. As of today, the quality of the classes is exceptional.
Om Sairam.

Om Shree Sai Ram 🙏
Tijdens mijn school- en collegejaren studeerde ik wetenschap en had ik geen geloof in goden en godinnen. Religie en spiritualiteit spraken me totaal niet aan. Naar de tempel gaan en puja uitvoeren voelde mechanisch aan, en het woord "spiritualiteit" kwam niet eens in mijn vocabulaire voor. Toch geloofde ik sterk in eenvoud, waarheid en nederigheid als basis voor het leven.
Door de goddelijke genade van Swami raakte ik vanaf het begin betrokken bij Zijn missie en werd ik in mijn eerste jaren in de organisatie lid van het sewa-dal. Tijdens Swami’s 19e geboortedagviering werden er vijf seva-dalgroepen gevormd, en ik kreeg de kans om eraan deel te nemen. Ik nam regelmatig deel aan de programma’s in het ashram en begon op zaterdagen en speciale gelegenheden steeds meer van Swami’s leringen te beluisteren.
Met de tijd hebben deze leringen mij getransformeerd in een spiritueel persoon, ook al was het een geleidelijk proces. Ik schrijf al deze veranderingen toe aan de genade van Swami en buig nederig voor Zijn goddelijke voeten.
In 2022 nodigde de gerespecteerde Guru Daju mij uit om deel te nemen aan de SSSSB-klassen. In het begin aarzelde ik een beetje, omdat ik geen leraar was. Maar ik besloot als observator mee te doen. Vandaag ben ik diep dankbaar dat ik deel uitmaak van deze spirituele familie, waar ik ongelooflijk veel heb geleerd.
Ik heb ingezien dat het “Family Class” model in de huidige wereld essentieel is. Hier komen grootouders, ouders en kinderen samen om elkaar te inspireren en dagelijks belangrijke waarden te leren. Deze gezamenlijke beoefening is de sleutel tot zelftransformatie. Guru Daju heeft een compleet programma ontwikkeld dat zich richt op persoonlijke en spirituele groei.
De SSSSB-klassen zijn niet alleen belangrijk voor kinderen, maar ook voor volwassenen, omdat ze bijdragen aan fysieke, mentale, academische en spirituele ontwikkeling—iets wat in de wereld van vandaag hard nodig is.
Vaak denken we dat alleen volwassenen kinderen iets leren, maar binnen SSSSB leren wij juist ook veel van de kinderen. Dat maakt dit platform zo bijzonder. SSSSB inspireert ons om de leringen van Swami toe te passen in het dagelijks leven en samen spiritueel te groeien. Tot op de dag van vandaag is de kwaliteit van deze klassen uitzonderlijk.
Om Sairam.

My Soul Blossom classes journey started in the year 1997 as a parent to my daughter. Initially I

was asked to do some stories or plays games with children in class
My first Bal Vikas class was inaugurated on the occasion of Makarsankranti in January 1998 in
Kandivali area at my home. Later on during 2016, we started our First Shri Sanjay Sai Soul
Blossom Class of Mumbai chapter at our house -Gokul Gagan where all the non devotees parents
with their children attended the class.
In our Soul Blossom Class, we play games, do shloka chanting , meditation , storytelling with

Koti Koti Pranaams aan Uw Lotusvoeten, onze geliefde Bhagawan Baba.
Mijn Soul Blossom class-reis begon in 1997, toen ik als ouder mijn dochter begeleidde naar de klas. In het begin woonde ik de Balvikas-lessen bij als ouder, ongeveer zes tot acht maanden lang. Later werd ik gevraagd om verhalen te vertellen en spelletjes te spelen met de kinderen, waarna ik zelf een guru werd.
Mijn eerste Balvikas-les begon op Makarsankranti, in januari 1998, bij mij thuis in Kandivali. Later, in 2016, startten we de eerste Shri Sanjay Sai Soul Blossom Class van het Mumbai Chapter in Gokul Gagan, waar ook niet-devotee ouders en hun kinderen de lessen bijwoonden.
In onze Soul Blossom Class spelen we spelletjes, reciteren we shloka’s, mediteren we, vertellen we verhalen en nemen we deel aan seva-activiteiten. We leren de kinderen de leringen van Swami, zoals:
"Love All, Serve All"
"Sharing and Caring"
"Help Ever, Hurt Never"
We moedigen ouders aan om samen met hun kinderen deel te nemen aan festivals en seva-activiteiten, zoals:
15 augustus - Onafhankelijkheidsdag
Ganesh Chaturthi Festival
Diwali Joy Packets Seva
Mango Seva-distributie
Chaas (karnemelk) distributie
In 2022 werd de Gokul Gagan Soul Blossom Class verbonden met het Holland Chapter onder leiding van de gerespecteerde heer Sunil Marapin, die wij liefdevol Guru Daju noemen. Hij is het hoofd van zowel het Holland Chapter als de Internationale Soul Blossom Class. Sinds mijn aansluiting bij het Holland Chapter ben ik ook actief betrokken bij de Internationale Soul Blossom Class, waar ik regelmatig lessen geef aan kinderen in Nepal, Congo en India.
Ik bid tot Bhagawan dat Hij ons helpt om Zijn goddelijke missie voort te zetten en ons blijft zegenen met Zijn liefde en genade.

Aum Shree Sairam !!!
As being in a big family with Grandmother, Aunt (Father’s elder sister), parents and we 2 brothers and six sisters, we all were in a spiritual environment. Grandmother and Aunt most of the time visited different pilgrimage in India as well as Nepal. They always tell spiritual stories, Mantras and stories from holy books – Ramayan, Mahabharat, Swasthani Katha and many more. Always encouraged to visit the Temple and do pooja at home too in pooja room, Fasting ( Brata) to all of us. When I was 11, 12 years old at that time one of our relative went Puttaparti and broght photo, Locket, ring, Bhajan book of Swami Satya Sai Baba and said that this is the incarnation of God in India. So we became very happy and we believe and started to wear Locket, ring and Bhajan on Thursday at Home. At the time of Bhajan we offer Sweet polinda ( Haluwa) infront of Swami. After Bhajan we saw Aum (Om), Shree on prashad. We amazed and continued it.
After marriage couldn’t continue it all which I did before. Spend the life in teaching and continuing visit Temple and Fasting. I worked 11 years as a Teacher in Biratnager. Then in 2002 I joined Child Home and worked with the children 18 years. At that time I came to know about Our beloved Swami, Guru, God, Mentor Shree Sanjay Sai Baba. We went the Ashram at Shankhamul and BuddhaNagar a couple of time. Then as we get time we continue going Ashram to get Darshan and Blessings. After some months came to know that that Ashram has been shifted but where I didn’t know. One day I was returning from the office I saw near Koteshwor ( Narephat) a Banner was about Swami’s birthday. I became happy and started to visit Ashram. After that got Swami’s blessings, Interview and then selected as a Teacher of Swami’s School and his mission. In 2018 Swami himself taken interview and chosen as a Teacher.
Then at the time of Covid respected Guru Daju met as another mentor for SB class. Started SSSSB class by online and slowly physically at room. Now because of respected Guru Daju I learnt about SB class though I was unknown about this class. Now we are running Balkot- SB class every Saturday by the help of Guru Daju. I express my gratitude to beloved Swami giving all these opportunities in my life. I will try my best to continue till my last breath.
Aum Shree Sairam!!!

Aum Shree Sairam !!!
Opgegroeid in een groot gezin met mijn grootmoeder, tante (de oudere zus van mijn vader), ouders, twee broers en zes zussen, bevonden we ons altijd in een spirituele omgeving. Mijn grootmoeder en tante bezochten vaak verschillende pelgrimsoorden in zowel India als Nepal. Ze vertelden ons altijd spirituele verhalen, reciteerden mantra’s en deelden wijsheden uit heilige boeken zoals de Ramayana, Mahabharata, Swasthani Katha en vele anderen. Ze moedigden ons aan om tempels te bezoeken, thuis in de gebedsruimte (pooja kamer) te bidden en regelmatig te vasten (Brata).
Toen ik 11 of 12 jaar oud was, bezocht een familielid Puttaparti en bracht een foto, een medaillon, een ring en een Bhajan-boek van Swami Satya Sai Baba mee. Hij vertelde dat Swami een incarnatie van God was in India. Dit maakte ons ontzettend blij en vol geloof begonnen we het medaillon en de ring te dragen en Bhajans te zingen op donderdag thuis. Tijdens de Bhajans offerden we zoete polinda (haluwa) aan Swami. Na de Bhajans zagen we soms de symbolen Aum (Om) en Shree op het geofferde prasad. Dit wonder verbaasde ons, en we gingen ermee door.
Na mijn huwelijk kon ik niet alles voortzetten zoals voorheen. Ik wijdde mijn leven aan lesgeven en bleef tempels bezoeken en vasten. Ik werkte elf jaar als leraar in Biratnagar. In 2002 sloot ik me aan bij een kinderenhuis en werkte daar achttien jaar met kinderen. In die tijd leerde ik over onze geliefde Swami, Guru, God en mentor, Shree Sanjay Sai Baba. We bezochten meerdere keren het Ashram in Shankhamul en Buddha Nagar. Later hoorden we dat het Ashram was verplaatst, maar we wisten niet waarheen.
Op een dag, op weg van mijn werk, zag ik bij Koteshwor (Narephat) een banner over de verjaardag van Swami. Ik werd heel blij en begon het Ashram opnieuw te bezoeken. Na enige tijd ontving ik Swami’s zegeningen, een interview en werd ik geselecteerd als leraar voor zijn school en missie. In 2018 nam Swami zelf mijn interview af en koos mij als leraar.
Tijdens de Covid-periode ontmoette ik gerespecteerde Guru Daju, een nieuwe mentor voor de SB-klas. We begonnen de SSSSB-les online en schakelden later over op fysieke lessen in een lokaal. Dankzij Guru Daju leerde ik over de SB-klas, iets waar ik daarvoor niet van op de hoogte was. Nu geven we elke zaterdag de Balkot-SB-klas, met de hulp van Guru Daju.
Ik ben diep dankbaar voor onze geliefde Swami, die mij al deze kansen in het leven heeft gegeven. Ik zal mijn uiterste best doen om deze spirituele reis voort te zetten, tot mijn laatste adem.
Aum Shree Sairam!!!
