Om Sri Sairam.
With the immense grace of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, all the three wings of the organization viz.
spiritual, service and education, have successfully carried out various seva activities in Nagpur district
during the year 2018-19.
I am indebted to Bhagawan for His continued guidance and grace on Nagpur district and indeed the whole
hearted (physical, mental and financial) support from all the office bearers and devotees of Nagpur.
Our beloved Swami has taught us that for seva it is the will not the resources. If you take one step towards
Him, resources will automatically flow. We in Nagpur have time and again experienced this in abundance.
As regards the seva activities in Nagpur district are concerned, I will take the privilege to mention especially
the medicare seva in which we reached the door steps of around 50,000 needy villagers and slum dwellers
through our fortnightly medicare seva van.
Under the Medicare project, 10 special eye camps and 3 dental camps were also organised during 2018-19.
The mother and child care team of Nagpur district also reached to three villages in the Kalmeshwar Tahsil
and distributed Swami’s love in the form of Sai Protein and Iron and Calcium supplements to the pregnant
women.
“Youth can change the world”. The youth wing of Nagpur district also organized awareness programs
through Yuva Vikas activity for the college youth in Nagpur. The youth team of Nagpur regularly organizes

Foreword from the District President
Narayan seva in slums and fruit distribution seva in the govt. medical college. In today’s age of competition
where career is considered to be everything, we are indeed fortunate to have such young individuals who
derive immense satisfaction in spending Sunday with slum dwellers and patients.
Through this Annual Report, we take the opportunity to thank our beloved Swami for accepting us in His
fold and making us an instrument in His mission of helping the mankind in redeeming the precious human
birth and also pray Him to continually inspire us for more and more seva in years to come.
In Sai Service

The Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisations, founded by
Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba in the year 1965, is a service
organisation with a spiritual core and base to benefit all
mankind irrespective of religion, caste, creed or sect. The
Organisation serves as a platform for its members to undertake
service and other activities motivated by an urge for one's own
transformation with the aim of realising one's inherent divinity.
Without any distinction of religion, nationality, race, socio-
economic status, either for those who work in the Organisation
or for those who are served by it, the Organisation transcends all
barriers leading humanity towards the ideal of 'Fatherhood of
God and Brotherhood of Man'.
The concept of fees or membership subscription is alien to
the Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisations, for there cannot be any
fee or subscription for one's journey towards his own self.
The organisation functions through its primary units called
as Samithis and Bhajan Mandalis of which individuals - from
different strata of society, different ethnic groups pursuing
different religions and faiths -are members bound by the dictum
of “Love all, Serve All” and pursue their own sadhana towards
self-transformation following the path of selfless service to
humanity.
At no point is an individual asked to follow a certain
religion or rituals. On the contrary each is inspired to follow his
own faith so as to ensure that a Hindi becomes a better Hindu, a
Muslim becomes a better Muslim, a Christian becomes a better
Christian and so on. In fact, this spiritual basis inspires everyone
to pursue his own religion better by putting into practice Love
and Selflessness. That is why the Organisation features in its
emblem the symbols of the major religions of the world.
“The Organisations named after Me are not to be used for publicising MyName, or creating a new cult around My worship….They must render seva(service) to the helpless, the sick, the distressed, the illiterate and the needy.Their seva (selless service) should not be exhibitionistic; it must seek noreward, not even gratitude or thanks from the recipients. Seva is sadhana(spiritual exercise), not a pastime of the rich and well placed.

Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisations – an introduction
Activities under different wings of the Organisation
You must have the irm belief that the aim of this Organisation is to removethe obstacles that keep man away from God, that separate maanavathwa(Humanity) from Maadhavathwa (Divinity).. This Organisation must elevate thehuman into the Divine.”
WINGS OF THE
ORGANISATIONS
The Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation
functions under three wings viz. (i) Spiritual, (ii)
Education, and (iii) Service.
Each activity in a wing is directed to facilitate
and help the member in his own spiritual
advancement. Although, the nature of activities
undertaken under different wings appear to be
distinct and dissimilar, but there is an inherent
interrelationship amongst all the three wings. The
three wings stand for Worship, Wisdom and Work.
Spirituality and Service are supplementary and
complementary to each other. Spirituality is the
motivational force behind service and service is the
fulfillment of spirituality. Therefore, spiritual
concepts learnt through education must be put into
practice in form of service to humanity. Thus, in
order to successfully realise the objective of
joining the Sai Organisation, one must participate
in activities of all the three wings.

BRIEF HISTORY
Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation (SSSSO) started functioning in Nagpur in the form of Sri Sathya Sai
Seva Samithi in the year 1971. The sapling planted by Sri Chakravarty, Sri D. M. Parekh, Sri Ramdas
Shashital, Sri Shivram Desai, Sri R.R.N. Murhty Sri B.M. Wadegaonkar, Sri V. R. Joshi and others has
become a big tree in the form of six samithis under the banner of Nagpur district.
Initially the activity of the organization in Nagpur was confined to weekly bhajans and bhajans on
special occasions like Maha Shivaratri and Swami’s birthday. But after the formation of Samithi, the
activities of all the three wings (spiritual, service and education) gradually expanded.
The service wing of Nagpur samithi was ably handled by Sri B. M. Wadegaonkar, who was the
pioneer in the field of sanitation seva in Nagpur. His team has a lion’s share in developing the sanitation
network in Prashanthi Nilayam. Till date the May maintenance camp seva continues in Prashanthi
Nilayam under the guidance of octogenarian Wadegaonkar Kaka.
Mr. Wadegaonkar was very fortunate to have received the grace of Bhagawan time and again and it
will not be an exaggeration to mention here that Nagpur Samithi was then known as Wadegaonkar’s
samithi.
DIVINE VISIT

soul of our organization which keeps all the different wings united. Purpose of bhajan singing is to
achieve such purity of heart and mind which will help us experience happiness and peace in every
activity in our daily life.
In all the six samithis of the Nagpur district, weekly bhajans were organised throughout the year.

Sankirtan is an activity wherein group of devotees slowly walk the streets early in the morning, singing
the glory of the Lord. The atmosphere is automatically purified when you take the name of the lord to the
doorsteps of all the people.

The purpose of Study Circle and Sadhana Shibir is to organise spiritual discussion based on
interesting techniques with the intention of assisting the devotees in the search of the divinity inherent in
man.
Study circle is an inseparable part of our organisation. Swami says, “Only reading and understanding
is not sufficient, it is important to find proper place to implement it.
In Nagpur District, 25 Study circle sessions were held at Sai Sankalp Hall.

Namavali Sadhana, Naap Jap Sadhana, Dhyan Sadhana, Veda Sadhana and Namasankirtan.
Veda Chanting:
To derive timely benefits Shri Sathya Sai Baba has cultured us in Veda Chanting. Swami says, “The

with proper intonation, the 65 Divine forces, that are latent in man, become manifest.”
