As part of the Meditation for Life’s Chaos 9 Day Meditation Program, Nikhi covers the topic “The Youth Opportunity ” for Day 7 of the program.
Hello, I am Nikhil Agarwal, and I am a student at Independence Highschool.
Ever since I was young, I have always had a desire to become a medical doctor. However, being able to be admitted into medical colleges is extremely difficult, some colleges even require aspiring students to attain well over 450 hours of medical volunteering.
Although medical volunteering hours are a great opportunity for students to be exposed to the environment, they may one-day be working in, students need to realize the significance of these volunteering opportunities.
They are not simply numbers you track in a log book so you can one day submit them to colleges and the admission board, but instead gaining insight and experience from these volunteering opportunities is the main goal.
Volunteering for UNESCO BMW is one of the opportunities I had which gave me more confidence and self-esteem which allowed me to believe I am capable of taking on more responsibility and work.
Being self-aware of my goal and interest allows me not only to prepare for the rigors of school work, but also allow me to envision possible future jobs.
However, it is through meditation which allows me to pursue this goal. Being self-aware of one’s capabilities and limits allow us to make decisions which enable us to go further in life.
Meditation has helped with this as it allows me to have a more concentrated attention to carefully think through important decisions, but also helps me relax and stay calm even through stressful periods in which school gets excessively difficult.
And it is only through meditation which allows me to stay focused and aware of my plan of moving forward into medicine.
Join our UNESCO BMW for world inner peace, thank you!

In light of the unsettling reality that our youth are going through, the USA government considers it important to address the issues of youth, and thus created a special website called “Youth.Gov”.
We all are responsible to look after our teens and young adults, as a special and vibrant power of every country. Because of that, UNESCO Body & Mind Wellness Club (UNESCO BMW), in collaboration with Sahaja Yoga Meditation (SYM), is pleased to invite you to a 9 Day online program “Meditation for Life’s Chaos” as one of the ways to face and solve the problems of our youth from their own interior and innate resources. (UNESCO: United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.)
Since 2014, UNESCO BMW, a registered non-profit organization and member of the US Federation of UNESCO Clubs and Associations (USFUCA), promotes inner peace practices, encouragement of arts and crafts, as well as the protection of the Eco-system in order to create Eco-friendly jobs.
SYM is a registered non-profit organization. Internationally, SYM is practiced in over 100 countries and includes participants of all ages, races, genders, and ethnicity. Students practising SYM reported a marked improvement in their memory, concentration, and self-esteem. It has also enabled them to develop their natural strengths and abilities.
We would like to offer a taste of these benefits by conducting free 60-minute sessions for nine consecutive days, for teens and young adults, on how to meditate. The program will focus on youth issues such as mental health, social media use/misuse, bullying etc. This instructional program would be free of charge and includes an introduction to the issues followed by a guided meditation with music and a Q&A session. This is a part of UNESCO BMW’s initiatives. Through the use of very simple meditation techniques, one can find that peace is not merely a concept, but an inner state that can be easily and spontaneously reached. The objective is that each participant can experience a state of mental silence, as a gateway to stress relief and inner peace.
Participants with full attendance in the program will be provided attendance certificates from UNESCO BMW.
