Happy Valentine

The Sri Sathya Sai Centers of Central Jersey and Scotch Plains come together every Sunday to offer Sai Spiritual Education (SSE) classes for all four groups in Edison, New Jersey.

In a humble tribute to Swami on Valentine’s Day, the teachers inspired the children to embrace and practice one of Swami’s most beloved teachings: “Love All; Serve All.” With the guidance of their teachers, the children explored how true love is expressed through selfless acts of service to others.

As part of this meaningful lesson, the SSE children wrote about acts of selfless service they had performed on sticky notes and placed them in the shape of a heart. What emerged was a display of overflowing love and kindness, with the children sharing acts of service that varied from simple gestures, such as ‘I let my mom sleep,’ to more brave actions, like ‘I stood up for my friend.‘”

This activity stands as a shining testament to how SSE elicits human values from within and encourages children to embody these values in their daily lives. It is a powerful way to guide them toward becoming responsible adults, grounded in strong moral principles.
