God is the source of all love. Love God, love the world as the vesture of God, no more, no less. Through love, you can merge in the ocean of love. Love cures pettiness, hate, and grief. Love reduces attachment; it saves man from the torment of birth and death.

This Annual Report highlights the loving, heartwarming, selfless services being provided by SSSIO members around the world. The goal of all service projects and individual sadhana is to realize the oneness of creation and to see and experience divinity in everyone. Swami exhorts us to realize that the purpose of human life, and the purpose of the Organization that bears His holy name, is to realize our innate divinity and to help others recognize their own innate divinity.

We are immensely grateful to Lord Sai for giving us the opportunity and the privilege to take part in His divine mission through the SSSIO. I pray to Swami to bless us with strength, wisdom, and dedication so that we can continue serving Him and His creation selflessly, with unconditional love, until our last breath.

Samasta Loka Sukhino Bhavantu (May All the Worlds Be Happy).

Narendranath Reddy, M.D.

Chairman, SSSIO
