View Balvikas Calendar for year 2013-2014


In Balvikas, children are taught ‘to respect Human Values’. Today it is very necessary that along with worldly and material education, spiritual, moral and ethical education should also be given to the students. The reason why the students of today show utter lack of finer feelings such as respect, compassion and love is that they have not been initiated into spiritual education. It is necessary therefore
that moral, spiritual and ethical education be combined with worldly education.

The Balvikas Curriculum has been designed and developed to perfection in the deepest possible details. We are following this very Curriculum. The aim is that the participants should blossom into human excellence. The Balvikas children who are being guided and inspired will be the leaders of tomorrow.

The virtues which such classes impart in them will remain carved in their memories and transform their outlook and behavior in the days to come.

The inner significance is that by introducing the understanding of human values which enter every aspect of life, the child from a very early stage is made to appreciate the importance of values which are the basis of good character and happiness and joy in life. The objective is to bring up the child with a proper understanding of human values through stories, practical illustrations and experiences in life, etc., so that as a grown up individual he/she becomes aware of the Divinity inherent in him/her and become a useful member of the society and citizen of the country.


 The Significance of Sai Baba Satcharitra :
  • This is the first and foremost book based on the life-story of Shri Sai Baba, which was originally composed in Marathi verse form. The writing of the book started in the lifetime of Baba with his blessings.
  • The divine truth imparted by this book is even greater than the knowledge contained in the Vedas and Geeta, because all the characters and events in it are real and authentic as also recorded in details by many devotees.
  • The spiritual essence contained in all the religious scriptures like Vedas, Geeta, Yoga Vashisht is found in the life-story of Shri Sainath.
  • The concepts on God and spirituality are explained in such a simple yet comprehensive manner in 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' that no additional book, or commentary etc. is required to understand it. It has a natural flow of which the readers starts feeling as if they had been closely associated with its events in their past life.
  • The foremost duty of a Sai devotee is therefore to read 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' and absorb it by heart if possible. The more they read this book, the more it will bring them closer to Baba and all their doubts and apprehensions will be cleared.
  • It also has been experienced that during crisis if any devotee is searching for an answer, if he randomly opens of 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' praying Baba sincerely and with faith his answer can be found in that open page.
Many people have got their desired benefits after reading 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' for a week in a parayana form.

Sai Satcharitra utilized in the following manner :
  • Get the book, 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' in whatever language one chooses to read. Neatly wrap it up in a piece of new cloth, and place it near Baba's photograph or idol with due sanctity.
  • Whether at home or elsewhere, one should always read a few pages of the book every night before going to sleep. Every devotee should try to keep Baba as the last thought before sleep.
  • During crisis it should be read devotionally for a week, as is mentioned in 'Shri Sai Satcharitra'. If possible, reading should begin on a Thursday or on some other special day, such as Ramnavami, Dussehra, Gurupurnima, Janmashtmi, Mahashivratri, Navratri, etc. After it's completion on the seventh day one should feed the poor and destitute either in the temple/home or wherever possible.
  • One should read it sitting in some isolated corner in the temple or in front of Baba's statue or Photograph/painting. If other people are present, then it should be read to them or with them as well. Group reading should always be encouraged.
  • Wherever and whenever possible, it should be read continuously from sunrise to sunset in the temples on auspicious days.
  • 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' should be read to the devotees - sick, old aged and those nearing death as much as possible. All of them will get peace.
  • 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' is a reasonably priced book and is easily available at Shirdi. Therefore, any devotee visiting Shirdi must bring a few copies with him to distribute among the deserving people free of cost.
  • At times, of distress and agony if one sincerely searches for the answers from 'Shri Sai Satcharitra' he will not only find the answers but also solace. His faith will grown in Baba. Shri Sai Satcharitra should be taken by all Sai devotees as Geeta and Bible.
