WISHING OUR READERS A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Fri, Dec 31, 2010: It's year ending 2010 and as has been the practice over the years, the alumni of SSSIHL have come back once again to the hallowed portals presenting themselves to their Beloved Swami. Year endings often mean introspection of the activities during the year, and here, the grateful students seemed to have done their 'home work' well to present their progress report to Bhagawan. They have come in good numbers and presented a dance drama entitled "Your Message is Our Life", a sequel to the previous year's presentation entitled "An Eternal Bond of Love"! 
Earlier, Bhagawan came in His car at 1810 hrs., to go for a full round of Darshan. Upon coming on stage at 1820 hrs. He blessed the alumni to commence the evening's further proceedings.
How best to live a worthy life that has already been sanctified by Bhagawan with His bounteous blessings, entitling them with the title Sai Students? The presentation in the evening was an answer to this question. Continuing from the previous year's story that depicted the story of Karthik, the persona representing an ideal Sai student, the presentation for the evening carried the story-line forward coining actual stories from the lives of alumni.
Story moved from the medical camp at Whitefield to Bhagawan's revelation done in 1976 where He spelt out His future mission, through a materialised medallion, involving His students. Impressed at the revelations, Karthik was pumped up, yet was worried about 'something' that was holding him back to take a big leap to follow His teachings. When opportunity came in his way, when the call was irresistible, Karthik responded and took home a destitute child, turning the orphan under his loving care. Karthik was joined by a couple of more Sai students.
The story of Sai Anandam, an orphanage for destitute children, the coming up of Sri Sathya Sai Jagruti Vidya Mandir, the newly dedicated project "Sathya Sai Vidya Vahini" and the coming up of a hospital meeting the need of the hour, serving the villagers etc. were depicted showing how Sai students are making waves in the society spreading His message, Love All Serve All.
The one-hour presentation ended with a message of Oneness of All Creation with a call to merge in Him to become One!
Bhagawan moved down the dais to pose for a photo session. Accepting Mangala Arathi at 1935 hrs. Bhagawan left for Yajur Mandiram at 1940 hrs. Prasadam was distributed to the entire audience.
