“Hands in Society, Head in the Forest and Heart with God”! 

Having migrated from the cosy comfort of His physical presence, we often wonder whether we truly are doing what He sent us out to do. Yet mired as we now are, in the reality of the unreal, we often find ourselves coping with the inadequacy of mere existence, wondering how we can rise to the potential of being a breed apart and actualize His vision for us.

As Alumni of our magnificent alma mater, ours is truly a unique journey. We begin, ”Where the road ends”, as Howard Murphet’s book is titled, and find ourselves having to move away, from His physical presence, as His messengers, yet constantly absorbed in the endeavour of tracing our way back to the Lotus feet.

How do we set about making a difference amidst the incessant hustle, chaos and clutter that is the world? This is the path that we seek to chart, trek and track in our attempt to live up to His benevolent diktats to us.

In our endeavour to respond to His clarion call, look beyond the realms of intellectual posturing and move towards Love in Action, we need to network as Sai Students - across the globe, share our thoughts, energy, enthusiasm and resources, collaborate once again, relive our student days of fraternal cooperation and play our roles as alumni today.

    “Knowledge without Action is useless,
    Action without knowledge is dangerous.”
     

    Swami has created an environment of academic excellence and has constantly encouraged students to take up higher education. He implores us to convert knowledge into a tool useful to society. The state of the art techniques used in our Institute’s curriculum for teaching and research, the library which is truly a bibliophile’s delight, the quality and the qualifications of His chosen teachers, stand testimony to the importance given by Him to imparting knowledge. His parental concern about our academic performance has encouraged us to achieve outstanding results year after year.

    Rabindranath Tagore dreams echoed in his verse “Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high, where knowledge is free…….” find fruition at His institutions where quality education is imparted.

    “Students! Remember that all those whom we are accepting now as leaders, whom we respect as holding positions of authority, whom we worship as elders, were some years ago students like yourselves. Therefore, you in your turn will be the leaders, power-wielders and elders of tomorrow”

    Swami’s words as always are prophetic. We increasingly find Sai Students living up to fulfilling these words in their respective domains. They hold distinguished positions as academicians, administrators, bureaucrats, bankers, consultants, doctors, engineers, researchers,……… in various blue-chips, institutions of international repute and multinationals.

    There is tremendous potential for each of us to continue to collaborate in our respective domains of expertise and work in tandem to further our competence. There also exists the opportunity for all of us to show our gratitude to our Alma by increasing the levels of alumni – alma mater interaction. Knowledge being in a state of continuous progressive change, there is always a pressing need to keep ourselves abreast. This forum can help facilitate this objective as also keep our peers updated.
