In the second half of July 2025, the Siberian Region of Russia hosted its Children’s Regional Festival under the Zonal Project Active Summer 2025. With the theme, ‘A heart in which kindness lives is a temple of God’ and the motto ‘A kind heart is like the sun—the most important thing is to shine for others’, the festival became a radiant expression of light, love, and goodness. The event drew 29 participants, including 10 children, from five Sai Centers and Groups, who immerse themselves in uplifting bhajans, creative workshops, dances, games, morning exercises, and the Sai Olympic. The highlight was the quest through stations of Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Love, and Nonviolence, led by fairy-tale characters, where children discovered that kindness itself is divinity. Completing the quest, they assembled a heart-shaped puzzle symbolizing the temple of God and received a sweet surprise—chocolates with loving messages from Swami. Children and adults together enacted stories, parables, and plays, realizing the joy of unity, mutual assistance, and good deeds. The Sai Olympics united everyone into two teams in a spirit of cooperation and encouragement. The festival concluded with a ‘Big Round Dance,’ where hearts overflowed with gratitude to Bhagawan. The celebration not only filled everyone with joy but also deeply impressed upon all that a kind heart is the dwelling place of God.
