Education
From a young age, Bhagwan demonstrated his compassion by helping needy fellow-students by materializing pencils, notebooks, and other supplies from nothing. He firmly believed that education is a fundamental human right and that every child deserves access to it free of cost. With this vision, the Organization initially began by providing scholarships to underprivileged students in remote villages. This noble mission has since evolved into the establishment of Shree Sanjay Sai Vidya Mandir (SSSVM) in 2068 BS, guided by the motto: “Education for Character Development.”
Swamy emphasizes the importance of holistic education, stating that “Physical (Academic) Education and Spiritual Education are like two wings of a bird.” Both are essential for personal growth, spiritual development, and success in life. To complement formal education, informal Soul Blossom Education is also offered under Swamy’s patronage to inspire children and youth outside traditional educational systems.
Shree Sanjay Sai Vidya Mandir (SSSVM)
- Established: 2068 BS (2011 AD)
- Grades Offered: UKG to Grade 10
- Student Strength: 450 students currently receiving quality education.
- Excellence: The school consistently achieves outstanding results in the School Leaving Examination (SLC) / Secondary Education Examination (SEE), with most students securing A+ or A grades and a very few earning B+.
The school integrates academic excellence with spiritual awakening, providing value-based education to nurture students into good human beings. Parents are not required to pay fees, as the school operates as a free institution, supported by donations from Swamy’s devoted followers, both nationally and internationally. This noble initiative thrives under the divine blessings of Bhagwan Baba.
Infrastructure and Facilities
Initially started in a small rented house in Shankhamul, Kathmandu, SSSVM is now located in Balkot, Bhaktapur, in its own well-equipped school building within a spacious compound on leased land. Recognized as one of the best schools in the country, it offers modern amenities, including:
- A science laboratory
- A computer laboratory
- A library
- Classrooms equipped with audiovisual systems
Future Aspirations
Guided by Bhagwan’s teachings—“The end of information is knowledge, and the end of education is character”—the Organization envisions establishing a university for higher education in the near future.
Shree Sanjay Sai Soul Blossom (SSSSB) Programme
The SSSSB Programme offers spiritual and value-based education for individuals, particularly children and youth. Classes are held every Saturday at the premises of Shree Sanjay Sai Vrindavan Ashram, catering to:
- Children (ages 5–9, 10-14)
- Pre-youth (ages 15-19)
- Youth (ages 20-24)
Swami himself conducts classes for pre-youth and youth, inspiring them to integrate good values into their practical lives. The core objective of the SSSSB Programme is to facilitate spiritual transformation and instill a foundation of moral and ethical living.
Global Reach and Virtual Classes
SSSSB classes are conducted not only at the Ashram but also in various locations worldwide, including Australia, India, Oman, and Nepal, where they are organized by Swamy’s devotees. Additionally, virtual classes are conducted by:
- Australia Chapter
- India Chapters
- Holland Chapter
The Holland Chapter also organizes unique virtual family classes every Saturday and Sunday, which include participants from Nepal, the DR Congo, and other countries. These classes are designed for people of all ages—children, parents, grandparents—under the divine guidance of Bhagwan.
The ultimate goal of the SSSSB Programme is the spiritual upliftment and transformation of individuals across the globe, nurturing a harmonious and value-driven way of life.
