Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Jyothi
Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Jyothi (SSSVJ) is an All India Program that aims to inspire children by empowering schools. The selected schools are government schools located in rural or backward areas where the children come from families with less means and lack the basics of modern education, nutrition and medical treatments. The program gives the Sai Youth an opportunity to give the children Maths, Science, Computers and language coaching along with conducting fun-filled activities for the children involving arts, crafts, music, drama and sports. In areas where mal-nourishment is prevalent in children, Sai Protein is distributed. Medical, Dental and Vision checkups are conducted periodically in the schools to ensure the well-being of the children. In cases where the infrastructure in the school is inadequate, repairs are performed and required equipment is donated.
The SSSVJ program combines worldly learning with spiritual learning. BalVikas classes are conducted weekly, where the children learn the importance of Human Values namely Satya, Dharma, Shanti, Prema and Ahimsa (Truth, Right Conduct, Peace, Love and Non-Violence). The BalVikas gurus narrate stories from our ancient scriptures and conduct value based games and activities to inculcate Human Values in the children’s daily lives.
The teaches from the adopted SSSVJ schools are also given the training needed to become BalVikas gurus themselves so that they may include Human Values teaching as part of the normal curriculum teaching they give to the students daily.
Counseling is provided to parents of the children and village adults where there are problems prevalent. All stakeholders involved in the upbringing of the child namely Teachers, School Administrators, Parents, Village elders (Panchayat) are kept informed of the SSSVJ activities and support is provided where needed.
