Aum Sri Sai Ram
The journey with Swami to Swami is beautiful and gratifying. When we look back, 2015-16,
Swami has blessed us to do more both qualitatively and quantitatively. Every wing of the
organisation has become more stronger.
Compared to 2014-15, we could reach more people. More media persons reached
Puttaparthi as their Parthi Yathra. After their return, they wrote beautifully on the impact of
their trip, Parthi Yathra by Youth, Advocates, Patients operated in Sai Hospitals, Teachers –
all had great impact.
Mahilas could reach to more people and areas, through ‘Satsang Groups’.
Every year Essay Competition for students attract more and more from more educational
institutions. This year more than 32,000 students participated from 1,100 educational
institutions across Kerala.
Seva activities are touching more and more hearts. Sri Sathya Sai Village Integrated
Programme has become more effective. More Sri Sathya Sai Rural Vocational training centres
are established in this year.
To help all to realize innate divinity, spiritual activities were given more importance. Sadhana
camps, study circles etc. are totally revived.
Programmes for students, teachers and parents have attracted thousands and thousands.
3000 operated patients – at Puttaparthi and Whitefield – are given follow up treatment and
medicines under Sri Sathya Sai Rehabilitation Programme (SRP).
Under Sri Sathya Sai Disaster Management programme, training was given to thousands of
college students and government officials. Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Vahini programme is
concentrating on the academic improvement of selected schools by making study interesting
and empowering.
Some new programmes were introduced this year. Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Jyothi is a youth
initiated programme for improving the School conditions. We could adopt 56 schools under
this programme.
All Kerala festivals were celebrated at Puttaparthi in the most fitting manner.
As we reach the end of 2016, with Swami’s infinite grace, we have already planned our vision
for 2017 “Going inward and reaching out”. This will give importance to personal and
community Sadhana and programmes will be there to take Sai Messages to all.
‘Remembering always, Not as our merits, But as His grace’ – Because Swami alone is the
DOER.

Forward from the Convener, Board of Trustees, Sri Sathya Sai Trust, Kerala
Aum Sri Sai Ram
It gives me immense pleasure to present the report of Sri Sathya Sai Trust, Kerala.
The Trust presently runs Sri Sathya Sai Vidyapeeth School at Srisailam and Primary Health
Centre at Shoranur in Kerala.
The number of Students of Sri Sathya Sai Vidyapeeth, Srisailam has been steadily increasing.
Great emphasis is now given to the school curriculum to ensure values-driven education
based on the principles and standards set by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
In keeping with the vision of Swami to provide free education, the school now provides free
education to a number of students.
The Primary Health Centre at Shoranur has treated a total of 2030 patients this year. Dr.
Anand Mohan stands as a pillar of strength in running the Health centre smoothly.
The Trust is now working very closely with Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation to initiate and
fund various projects.
Kidney Dialysis project at Trivandrum and Kollam has been ongoing successfully in
coordination with Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation, Kerala. Further such projects are also
planned in other districts.
With the Grace of Swami we shall endeavor to increase the scope of activities of Trust to
provide succor to the needy as envisaged by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
