Articles: Devotion | Living up to His message
- Prof. venkata ramanamurty mallajosyula

There were a few students who would do this service, in rotation and it so happened that during the summer, there was this student when everybody had gone to their respective home towns. Swami too was not in Brindavan. Very few teachers were around and there was this student who was looking after this devotee and his welfare. Even the washerman of the ashram had disappeared. The student waited, one week, two weeks; three weeks passed. They were twenty-one pairs of clothes collected over 20 days to be washed. This boy waited, the washerman was not around. He gave up and himself washed all the twenty pairs of that devotee unknown to anybody in the Hostel or in the Ashram.
A few weeks later, Swami returned to Brindavan, and suddenly He asked the Warden one day, “Send the boys who take care of that devotee” and when the boys were with Swami, out of the blue, Swami pointed out to that boy and said, “I know that the washerman was away and you personally washed twenty clothes belonging to him” and then He blessed him and filled his hands with gifts.
What I am trying to underline is every good little act you do, in the silence of the night, even if nobody around knows it, God knows and is willing to bless you and recognize you for your effort.
The True Sathya Sai Student
There is also a Question and Answer session following, I will not take more time, but it is a great privilege to be a Sai Youth and to be a Sai Youth is actually an aspiration. The other day I was interacting with some of our students and I asked them the question, “What is the difference between being a Sathya Sai University Student and a Sathya Sai Student?”
