The Gold Series: Chapter 9 - Trushad Shivananda Pujari

I come from Kakhandaki village in Vijayapur district, Karnataka. My father is a farmer, and my mother is a homemaker. My journey with this institution began in 2014-15 when I joined Sri Sathya Sai Vidyaniketanam, Kalaburagi Campus for my 6th grade. This campus became my second home, guiding me through my pre-university education(PUC) in 2019-20, and later paving the way for my undergraduate studies at Sri Sathya Sai University for Human Excellence (SSSUHE) in 2021-22. Today, after completing my undergraduate course in Physics, Mathematics, and Chemistry, I am undergoing an internship at the very institution that shaped me. Further, I aspire to do my post graduation in Chemistry.

My time at the Kalaburagi Campus opened up a whole new world of opportunities for me. Along with focusing on academics, I participated in sports like football, basketball, and athletics. The knowledge I gained by learning the Indian scriptures has inspired me to make selfless love and service the cornerstones of my life.

More than anything, this institution has given me a sense of purpose. It has taught me the value of lifelong learning and instilled in me the importance of striving for excellence in everything I do. Today, I live by these principles, dedicating myself fully to every endeavor and finding meaning in selfless service and love.
