Diwali Wishes from SSA-Hyd,
This Diwali, let’s rekindle the glow of childhood memories—when decorating our homes with diyas and filling the air with laughter brought pure joy. In these dark months, we light diyas outside, dispelling shadows and inviting warmth, love, and renewal. Diwali brings a fresh start, gratitude, and togetherness, as it has for generations.
In Gurudev Sri Sri Ravishankar’s words, “Knowledge is light.” Let us carry this light within, and like those diyas, spread wisdom, compassion, and kindness to everyone around us. May each of us be a beacon in someone’s life, sharing the love and joy that Diwali is truly about.
Wishing you and your family a Diwali filled with peace, warmth, and boundless happiness.

Dear Parents,
We are delighted to share that today, students of Grades 6, 7, and 8 had a wonderful field trip to Pochampally Handlooms, a place renowned for its GI-tagged Ikat designs. The students were given an exclusive opportunity to visit Nakshatra Ikkat Designs’ private property, where they observed the intricate process of creating Pochampally Ikat fabric.
They learned that raw silk is sourced from Bangalore, treated to make it soft, and then spun into spools of thread using a charkha-like mechanism. The threads are then carefully set on looms, with designs meticulously marked, tied, and dyed. These threads are later woven into beautiful Ikat designs. It was fascinating for the students to see that at least seven skilled people are involved in the preparation of the basic materials before the actual weaving begins. The students were captivated by the skill and craftsmanship of the weavers, who bring the stunning designs to life on the loom.
This field trip provided our students with a deeper appreciation for the traditional art of weaving and the cultural significance of Pochampally. We are certain this experience will leave a lasting impression on them.
Thank you for your continued support in making such enriching experiences possible for our students.
Best regards,
Team

Dear Parents,
Today, we had the privilege of hosting Amanna Raju, the Executive Chef at Novotel Hyderabad Airport, for an insightful guest lecture. With 28 years of experience in hotels, cruise lines, and as a culinary educator, Chef Raju shared valuable knowledge with our students about the culinary field.
He introduced the students to the wide range of career opportunities in the culinary industry, spoke about the latest trends in food, and discussed how one can sustain in the food business. The session also featured a lively Q&A, where students asked questions about pursuing a future in the culinary arts.
It was a highly engaging and informative experience for all the students!

Sri Sri Academy -HYD ,wishes you Shanthi Rasthu, Pushti Rasthu, Thushti Rasthu!
May peace, prosperity, and contentment be with you and your family.
Vijayadashami, also known as Dussehra, is a day of immense sacred significance. It reminds us of the eternal triumph of light over darkness and good over evil. On this day, Lord Rama defeated Ravana, symbolizing the victory of dharma (righteousness), and Goddess Durga conquered the demon Mahishasura, signifying the triumph of divine strength and courage.
Culturally, Vijayadashami is celebrated by invoking the blessings of the Divine Mother, seeking her guidance to destroy inner negativity and fill our lives with peace and abundance. This day also marks the beginning of new ventures, learning, and artistic pursuits, with many starting their education or sharpening their skills in arts and crafts, invoking Goddess Saraswati’s grace.
Divinely, Vijayadashami inspires us to reflect on our inner battles and emerge victorious, embracing wisdom, compassion, and courage in our lives. Let us all use this sacred day to seek clarity, strength, and the spirit to walk the path of righteousness.
May this Vijayadashami bring you inner peace, philosophical growth, and success in all your endeavors!
