Sri Sathya Sai Grama Seva Project
‘Sri Sathya Sai Grama Seva’ organised at Prasanthi Nilayam from the year 2000 formed one of the most important programmes of the 75th Birthday celebrations of Bhagavan. Bhagavan inaugurated this unique Seva at Prasanthi Nilayam on 31st October. Thus commenced a new era in village uplift and rural service activities.

This Seva was carried out by the staff and students of the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning and allied educational institutions. As directed by Bhagavan, food, laddus and new clothes were distributed as Bhagavan’s Prasadam to each and every house, in all the nearby villages.

  1. I was in the Primary School when Swami started the Grama Seva programme, without much fanfare, if i may say so.It was during the vacations. It has been 12 years since then and what a movement it has turned into! Nothing could take way the joy of Grama Seva, not even the upcoming half-yearly exams. Some of us used to manage to go daily for the Seva, even though the schedule mandated that we go only on alternate days. Who else can inspire 15-16 year olds for service activities?
