With the Divine Blessings of our beloved Bhagawan, the students and staff of Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Educare, Chromepet, Chennai–44, were privileged to undertake the holy pilgrimage to the abode of supreme peace on earth — Prasanthi Nilayam.

The group, led by Correspondent Sri S. Loganathan and accompanied by Principal Ms. N. Vedhanayagi, Headmaster Sri C. Manikandan, Headmistress Mrs. K. Poongothai, along with other teaching and non-teaching staff, commenced the journey in five buses from the school premises in the early hours of 3rd July 2026 and reached Puttaparthi by 7:00 p.m. the same evening. Accommodation was graciously arranged at the Sai Bhakta Nivas halls.

On 4th July, during the first Maha Samadhi Darshan of Bhagawan, heartfelt letters lovingly written by students and staff — expressing gratitude, prayers, and personal transformation — were reverentially offered at the Maha Samadhi. On both days, the group participated in the divine Veda chanting and blissful Bhajan sessions at Sai Kulwant Hall.

The highlight of the pilgrimage was the inspiring Satsangs addressed by Sri Vedanarayanan (Sanskrit Faculty, SSSHSS), Sri Sai Surendranath (Business Studies Faculty, SSSHSS), and Sri Bishu Prusty (SSS Media Centre). Through their soul-stirring narrations of Bhagawan’s values-based divine incidents, they sowed the seeds of devotion and strengthened the faith of the young minds.

Between the Darshan sessions, the group visited sacred sites of spiritual significance at Parthi, including Mother Eswaramma’s Samadhi, Bhagawan’s birthplace and adjacent temples, the revered Vata Vruksham (Meditation Tree), among others. Students were specially blessed to engage in volleyball and basketball matches with the students of SSSIHL, Prasanthi Nilayam, fostering bonds of love and fraternity. The group departed from Parthi at 8:00 p.m. on 5th July and, by Bhagawan’s Grace, reached the campus safely in the early morning hours of 6th July 2026.
