Developing Talent at Kodaikanal



"Swami makes them (His students) sing devotional songs  They will be asked to play on musical instruments.  Boys who are gifted with the talent of public speaking will be asked to address the devotees.  And sometimes we have Kavi Sammelan (poets' meet) also. 

Sathya Sai University is unique in the sense that we have students from all over India and a few from overseas also.  Each student is talented.  Some of them can write poems and compositions in their own language.  They have altogether some fifteen languages.  

Swami organises the Kavi Sammelan, the assembly of poets.  Swami will ask the boys to sing a song or recite a poem in his own native language.  Swami explains, interprets and translates them.  He also corrects them wherever they go wrong."
