Issue 93 - October 14, 2018 | | In 2016 one of the Satsangs held in the divine presence at El Teatro De Camara, Mexico. A devotee thanked Swami for blessing the Mexicans during Chihuahua crisis. And here is what Swami said: I also want to thank you for being here. God always wants to be with His devotees, just as devotees want to be with God. Just as children want to be with their mother, the mother also wants to be with her children. That way, when the children need their mother most, she is always there for them. Even before the child opens its mouth to call out, its mother, ever watchful, is always in tune with her child. That is why I am here; because you need Me; and you are here because I need you! | | Introduction of Annapoorna Protein Mix for Siddlaghatta Taluk Schools | | Annapoorna added a new approach to address the mission of building nutrition by introducing a protein mix that will be given to school children as a part of their morning breakfast.

They contribute to the breakfast programme in some nearby villages.
Every week, the residents of the Ashram contribute five chapatis per family that will be used to feed school children in the surrounding villages. The school children attending the Government Higher Primary School in Muddenahalli village have received and relished the breakfast. Fruit jam is served along with the chapatis, instantly bringing smiles on the faces of the 70 children studying at the school. Some children requested if they could also get peanut chutney with the chapatis the next time, clearly displaying their instant bonding with the volunteers! Kudos to the residents of the Ashram on uniting for a selfless cause! | | As Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba once said, "Service to mankind, is service to God."
