Sairam Dear Brothers and Sisters:
(This email is sent to Region 3 Education Coordinators, Center Presidents and Group Leads -Please share this email with center officers / members as you seem appropriate)
With Bhagavan’s blessings, we are humbled and delighted to announce plans to offer – Online SSE for select SSSIO Region 3 families/students. Region 3 SSE online program is inspired by the two quotes mentioned below.
“Let the message of this educational revolution, insisting on the resurgence of the divine in man, spread to every street and home. You have my blessings in ample measure. You can receive my guidance and help always in the fulfillment of this task” SS XVII, 31 Dec 1984
“Consider every student who is eager to learn as your own child.” SSS XIV, 18 Feb 1980
The Region 3 Online SSE program is also a humble response to the many requests/questions we have received from parents and teachers to have access to SSE program during these unprecedented times. We are grateful to Swami in showing us the path to make His very own SSE program available to students who are eager to learn via Online Sessions. As we continue to follow Swami’s guidance in building the framework for our Online SSE – we thought it is critical for us to share some foundational work with our Sai Community. Please review and provide us with any suggestions to make this an offering to our Guru. Please review the criteria below for online SSE program:
