From Team Venugaanam’s Desk




We are delighted to bring to you the November 2012 edition of Venugaanam. This edition begins with Swami’s Divine call to His devotees and students to have firm faith in Divinity and this will be sufficient strength to achieve any task.
In Atmajyothi, we continue the deliberation on realizing our inner nature and true potential. Bhargav shares his insights on the secrets of a healthy living from the perspective of the world’s oldest medical science- Ayurveda.  Even the so called inanimate objects have life; Sriram outlines this in the series entitled “A Journey Within”.
SowmyaRoopa shares her experiences as a student of the Anantapur campus. In the series called Golden moments , she narrates incidents that happened during those precious years and specific instructions from Swami to improve our lives. Prakash speaks on motivational aspects that every teacher should be aware of. What counts is not the amount drilled into a student but the effort to create an environment that generates interest in every child to learn, he opines.
There have been some significant developments last month.  The teachers’ workshop was a grand success in the school. The teachers who attended had a fruitful 4 days from 25-28 October. The sessions involved speakers from diverse backgrounds including a former Principal, a State Bal Vikas co-ordinator, former director of NCERT, a Bank Manager and other keen educationists. The speakers covered a range of topics from Educare to Psychology to Motivation and Skills development. We expect that the teachers would exhibit the same enthusiasm and spirit in developing these in the students also. All teachers who attended all sessions of the workshop would be given certificates of appreciation.
Meanwhile, construction is progressing rapidly and the first floor roof has been completed on October 22nd.  The second floor roof is also expected to be completed by November 15th while the masonry and other finishing work for the ground floor is in progress.
We invite you all to come and celebrate Swami’s birthday with all the school children at Sai Krushna Mandir. The ground floor of the children’s home will be inaugurated as part of our  humble offering marking the celebrations of Swami’s birthday.
We are happy to have your feedback on how to make ‘Venugaanam’ a better communication tool. You may kindly mail us at contactus@saikrushnamandir.org . Do feel free to share with us your experiences in following Swami’s teachings or on any other theme of your choice.
Happy reading! Wish you all a Very happy and festive November. Even as we celebrate the birthday of the eternal and unborn - may Swami turn our lives into a celebration of His message of love and service.
With All our Prema,
Team Venugaanam
