The Underlying Philosophy
The Sai educational institutions have been established

not merely to enable students to earn a living but to
make them acquire good traits, lead ideal lives, and
give them ethical, moral and spiritual strength. I have
established them with a view to inculcate love and teach
good qualities to students. They will learn here humility,
discipline and faith.
I have established these institutions to impart spiritual

education as a main component and worldly education
as a secondary one. Education should enable one
to cultivate good qualities, character and devotion.
The teaching of the university curricula is only the
means employed for the end, namely, spiritual uplift,
self-discovery and social service through love and
detachment.
This will be a Gurukula - a place where teachers and

taught will grow together in love and wisdom - and
like the ancient system of education, it will develop in
its students a broad outlook and promote virtues and
morals, which serve to foster noble ideals in society.
This Institute will be a temple of learning where youth

are shaped into self-reliant, contented and enterprising
heroes of action and self-sacrifice, for the purpose of
serving humanity.
SRI SATHYA SAI BABA

Revered Founder Chancellor, SSSIHL
Education softens the heart. If the heart is hard,
one cannot claim to be educated.

The Process
The diagram on the right forms the basis of the system of

Values-based Integral Education at SSSIHL.
The base is the concept of a modern Gurukula that sustains

all relationships and activities at SSSIHL. It is responsible for
creating and sustaining the congenial environment necessary
for the teacher-student interaction to grow and develop.
Adherence to discipline and appropriate behaviour are the two

important aspects that encompass all interactions.
The five human values of Truth, Right Conduct, Peace, Love and
Non-violence form the undercurrent of all the dimensions of
integral education.
These dimensions are: Intellectual, Physical, Cultural, Devotional

and Service. The key activities for each of these dimensions
form the basis of most of the time that students spend at
SSSIHL.
Bhagawan Baba purposefully designed the system of Integral

Education so that while students spend 60% of their time on
academics (intellectual capacities), they also spend 40% time
on the development of other qualities.
(See page 8 for further details.) Sri Sathya Sai Values-based Integral Education
Daily Routine
This is a crucial component of this process. Each student’s Hostel Life
day starts at 5:00 a.m., with a couple of hours spent in prayer,
exercise and other vocational pursuits (such as practice sessions The philosophy of hostel life is based on the approach of
for music, band, traditional Indian music and the likes). community living: each one lives for the other and all live
together for a common higher cause.
Classes commence at 9:00 a.m. After college ends at around
4:00 p.m., students move to the Mandir/Prayer hall for Students from different states of India, and varied economic and

8 Introduction
As a result, the hostel is a miniature

model of the world outside with people
of different habits, temperaments,
lifestyles, language and outlook staying
together and working. This develops the
qualities of understanding, adjustment,
sharing and caring amongst the students.
It nurtures virtues like adaptability,
tolerance and sacrifice; developing
students into noble and responsible
citizens.
The ambience is suffused with both

discipline and loving care. All doctoral
research scholars and one of every five
teaching faculty reside with the students
in the hostel. The relationship between
the students and teachers is very cordial
and warm, and the teachers pay personal
attention to the problems of each and
every student. The teachers are chosen
with extreme care to play an important
role in this process. Many of them are
alumni of the Institute, dedicated and
well versed in integral education. They
serve as facilitators and are available at
all times for mentoring the students on
personal and academic matters.
Personal cleanliness, punctuality and

regularity, general behaviour, personal
etiquette and room cleanliness are the
major components of the discipline that
is followed at SSSIHL hostels.
The Outcome
The outcomes of the system of Values-

based Integral Education at SSSIHL are
threefold. It prepares all graduates to be:
⚪ Spiritually aware
⚪ Socially responsible and
⚪ Professionally sound
It helps develop a strong character and

positive qualities in students and nurtures
virtues like adaptability, tolerance and
sacrifice; shaping them into noble and
responsible citizens.
