Our Student’s Say
“I joined the children’s home at Ramakrishna Sarada Mission in 2000 when I was in Grade 1, with no prior education and very little knowledge about school life. In my family, me and 4 elder brothers, parents passed away, leaving us to face life’s challenges alone. With the loving guidance of Mathajis and Kanapathy Pillai Amma, I gradually learned to read, write, and discover my talents, completing my studies step by step. I went on to earn a BSc in Information Systems and Management from Manipal University. Today, I work at Astanga Yoga Mandir, where I continue to grow professionally while cherishing the values of education, determination, and compassion that the home instilled in me.”
“My name is Tharshini. In 2004, my mother and I faced great struggles, worsened by the tsunami, and in January 2005, I joined the children’s home at Sarada Mission with nothing. With the blessings of Holy Mother Sarada Devi and the guidance of Matajis and Selvi Ganapathi Pillai Amma, I completed my school education, and earned a BA and MA in Bharatanatyam from the University of Madras. Today, I work as a teacher at the Hindu Ladies College Dance & Music School. The values of education, devotion, art, sisterhood, and compassion that I learned at the home have shaped my life, and I am forever grateful for the love and guidance I received.”
“By the grace of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, I was nurtured in Ramakrishna Sarada Mission for over 20 years. The Mission became my home, my spiritual haven, and the foundation of my life. The Matajis guided me with love, discipline, and moral values, giving me the confidence to face the world. I was blessed with opportunities to learn, grow, and discover my talents, which shaped my character and aspirations. With the blessings and support I received at the Mission, I completed my degree in Interior Architecture and today I am working as an Interior Architect in the United Kingdom. I am forever grateful to the Mission for shaping my spirit and giving me a lifelong home in faith, love, and discipline.”

“My name is Devamanojini Mahendran, and I joined Sarada Balika Mandir in 2005 during a very difficult period in my life. At that time, my family was struggling without my father, and I was on the verge of stopping my education. In that critical moment, I came to the home, and Ma Sarada stood by my side when my life felt like it was drowning in the sea. The Mission laid a strong foundation for my life and education. Now, I am a Siddha Doctor and work as a demonstrator at the Trincomalee Campus of Eastern University. I consider myself the luckiest person in the world to have Ma Sarada in my life, as her guidance and courage continue to strengthen me through every hardship.”
“My name is Sivanandhani, and I came to Mother Sarada’s Home on 02.11.2005. I was lovingly brought up there for nearly fourteen years, until May 2019, in a safe and caring environment that shaped my life.The home was not just a place to stay, but a true family where I learned good values, discipline, and confidence. Under Mataji’s kind guidance and encouragement, I worked as an Office Assistant (Tamil Medium) at Royal College for three years. With the blessings of Mother and the support of Matajis and Miss Vasanthi Rasaiah, my marriage was arranged, and I later went to India to begin a new chapter of my life. I remain deeply grateful to my Mother’s Home for supporting me at every important stage of my life.”
My name is Nanthani Yogeswaran, and I am 32 years old. My parents passed away when I was seven years old, and after this painful loss, I grew up in the Ramakrishna Sarada Mission orphanage. Although that period of my life was not always easy, it made me strong and shaped my character in a lasting way. I studied hard in school because I believed education was my path to a better future. Later, I moved to Switzerland, learned German through dedication and effort, and successfully completed my professional training. Today, I work as a nursing assistant and live in Switzerland with my daughter, feeling grateful for the journey that helped me become a strong and independent woman.”
