Educare For Loka Vikas…

The world today must address all the problems in the platform of human value … that it is time for the world to understand the Sathya Sai Baba’s Educare is not only a system of learning, but,  a singularly well defined way of life, none can question… On the occasion of National Balvikas convention at Prasanthi Nilayam a poem of tribute by Sri Jullie Chaudhuri, hailing His Mission and Vision of Balvikas that leads to Loka Vikas.

Ensnared by the world and its ways,
A mind bereft of ethics…totters and sways,
Dismally clasped in a maze,
No cure in sight for thoughts…
…that are frayed by a myriad malaise…

In steps Educare – an incomparably rare Solitaire,
Bequeathed upon all by Beloved Bhagawan,
He knew that humanity faced absolute despair,
Importune and impair,

(Akin to a vehicle without an engine,
…a kite minus a string…
…a bird lacking wings…
…or a fish without any fins…)
For Loka Vikas…the progress of mankind…
…for universal welfare…
Enhanced guidance at the micro level,
Was sage, vital and appropriate,
And so, the sublime gift of Bal Vikas…
…that nourishes the young impressionable individual psyche,
Adding substance and weight…thus realigning each entity’s fate…

Beyond education…Educare is a communication,
With the self within,
Wherein,
Consciousness embraces elevation,
Heart, mind and soul unites in harmonious action,
Leading to refinement in character…
It is the axiomatic truth…
…a factual, functional notion that -
Progress of any kind is synonymous with Compassion

…an expansive kindred emotion…

Educare is not only a system of learning,
But,
A singularly well defined way of life, none can question…
…that exudes care for life…
…concern for nature and respect for all of creation…
Sathya, Dharma, Shanti, Prema, Ahimsa…
…thus serve as conduits opening channels that assure,
Confirm, establish and guarantee Loka Vikas…
Indeed a benediction supreme that nothing can surpass…
