This article is about one of the many resounding successes of positive thinking, dedication, and all-giving Universal Prayer recitation. Yes, you heard it right! Kimaya Anup More of DPYA (Dadar Parsi Youth Assembly) School, Wadala, studying in 8th Standard has once again illustrated the importance of nurturing positive thoughts, focused dedicated efforts coupled with the recitation of Universal Prayer, that eventually resulted in a dream take-off for her, in the literal sense! She has been invited to the USA for a special training course training course by the most prestigious institute for space science NASA. Kimaya was selected amongst thousands of students based on her spectacular success in the ISSO (Indian Space Science Olympiad) exam. She topped this exam by securing AIR (All India Rank) 1. Only 25 kids are selected from all over Asia, Kimaya being one of this meticulous group of students. The training course will be held in the month of May.
Kimaya has always been a bright student since her childhood to teachings from her grandmother, Aparna Arun More, who is an ardent follower of Jeevanvidya Mission Philosophy. The character-building sessions (Bal Sanskar Kendra) of Jeevanvidya Mission had a great influence on Kimaya's upbringing. The 3R formula of Read, Remember, and Reproduce crafted by Jeevanvidya Mission’s Founder and Great Philosopher Satguru Wamanrao Pai proved very beneficial to her while studying. In addition to this, she used to recite Haripath, Universal Prayer, and Bless All Wishing strategies regularly. This ultimately led her to achieve the most astonishing achievement one could dream of at such a young age, securing AIR 1 in the ISSO exam. The ISSO is a platform for the talent hunt of budding young minds in the field of space science exploration.
Her family narrated the entire experience of her journey toward this success and is worth knowing. The exam was conducted in two phases. In the first phase, Kimaya stood 1st representing Maharashtra while the following Phase was held in Kerala. Her parents took a lot of effort in this journey beating all odds that came their way during the second phase of the exam. Just before the second phase exam, Kimaya was diagnosed with food poisoning. Doctors advised to admit her to the hospital for further treatment, which for a minute shook the entire family. But they immediately gathered themselves and remembered Jeevanvidya's principle of "Accepting the circumstances and working towards shaping them for betterment”. Kimaya's mother, Yeti, decided to get an online consultation from their family doctor in Mumbai. Sticking to the prescribed medical course, the entire More family, also opted for Jeevanvidya’s prescription of a revolutionary healer course of Universal Prayer, Haripath, and Bless All wishing strategy recitation for all students appearing for the exam.
Kimaya began to recover and feel better. Her perseverance to appear and succeed at the exam never faded anytime during the tough times. Although Kimaya was on the path of recovery, miraculously, the universal forces had a different plan. The planned exam day had to be postponed by a day due to a technical glitch which provided an extra day for Kimaya.
Kimaya not only appeared for the exam in great spirits but stood 1st across India and scored full marks in the ISSO Exam. Owing to this Kimaya was awarded a gold medal, a certificate of Achievement, and a Telescope by the hands of scientists Dr B Simon and Dr Sajeen from Bangalore. Kimaya's trailblazing success received an overwhelming celebration back in her hometown in Mumbai. Various mainstream newspapers and electronic media took note of her success and recognized her. Her school proudly hosted a grand felicitation program and bestowed her best student award appreciating her a lot. Honourable Chief Minister of Maharashtra Mr. Eknath Shinde also felicitated her and praised her efforts.
Jeevanvidya Mission recognized Kimaya for her efforts in implementing a practical application-based approach to Jeevanvidya principles and received warm felicitation and appreciation from Jeevanvidya Mission’s Life Trustee and Youth mentor Mr. Pralhad Pai accompanied by all other trustees. Kimaya's family expressed heartfelt gratitude towards Jeevanvidya Mission and the entire Pai family for their guidance and blessings.
The life lessons taught and impressed by Jeevanvidya's philosophy on Kimaya from an early age by her parents, and grandparents helped her in this journey of success till now and will have her achieve many such accolades and accomplishments representing India on a global stage. Indeed, Jeevanvidya Mission is nurturing gems for a better and glorious India!
