Om Sri Sai Ram

With Swami’s Grace, we are happy to announce the launch of registrations for the Unity Run Culmination Programme to be held at Prasanthi Nilayam on 26th July 2026.

We request you to kindly share this message with all Young Adults (YAs) across the Centres in your Zone. Registrations are now open through the link below:

Although the registration link currently mentions participation only for boys, girl YAs are also welcome to participate, provided they strictly follow the prescribed dress code of wearing churidar, as worn by the girl students in Prasanthi Nilayam. They may register using the same link if they would like to participate.

This is a divine opportunity to be part of a historic and spiritually uplifting event. We are inviting Young Adults from various Zones to come together at Prasanthi Nilayam, making this a truly global expression of unity and devotion.

The poster for circulation is attached. Kindly encourage maximum YA participation from your respective Zones.

Om Sri Sai Ram

I’m truly delighted to share an exciting and deeply inspiring opportunity for all the Youth attending the Leadership Program at Prashanti Nilayam. I wanted to keep you updated on this program.

Each of them now has the privilege of participating in the grand culmination event of the Sri Sathya Sai Unity Run & Ride—a powerful initiative that began last year as part of the Centenary Celebrations. This sacred program was envisioned to nurture a spirit of oneness and harmony, rising above all divisions of religion, region, caste, or creed, and awakening the awareness of the one divine thread that unites all of humanity.

The Unity Run & Ride is much more than a physical activity—it is a heartfelt movement. Through the simple yet profound act of running and riding for a noble cause, it seeks to:
• Spread the universal message of unity, love, and selfless service
• Encourage living the five cardinal human values: Truth, Right Conduct, Peace, Love, and Non-Violence
• Promote a healthy and active lifestyle in alignment with the spirit of the Fit India Movement
• Reinforce the understanding that self-transformation is the foundation of social transformation
• Inspire every participant to make each step an offering for the welfare of all

The team in India has already covered 40 cities and is continuing the project to carry Swami's message to as many cities as possible.

The culmination of this beautiful journey will take place on 26th July 2026 at Prashanti Nilayam, tentatively beginning at 2:30 PM. Participants will run together from Hill View Stadium and enter Kulwant Hall as one united offering at the Divine Lotus Feet—what a profoundly uplifting and unforgettable experience this will be!

We warmly and enthusiastically encourage all young adults attending the Leadership Program to take part in this historic and spiritually charged event. We also plan to invite additional Young Adults from various Zones to join in Prashanti Nilayam, making this a truly global expression of unity. Just to inform you we will use the same core team that helped us with the coin project to work on this.

We will need your help in coordinating this initiative so that we have participants from all countries. Please forward this email to all centers in your Zone & help more YA participate in this event. 

I have discussed this opportunity with Bro Lokesh who will get back with the final numbers of YAs attending the YALST in Prashanti Nilayam. 

This is a wonderful chance for our youth to not only take part in an event, but to live its message—together, as one family.

I will keep you updated on the program once we get the event details from India.

This was just to keep you updated that we are starting to work on this project with Young Adults.
