Uday Kamdi’s journey is an inspiring example of personal growth, academic focus, and spiritual transformation. During his B.Sc course at a college in Silvassa, he often felt shy, introverted, and low in confidence. Surrounded by students from high-profile backgrounds and having no close friends, he frequently felt isolated and hesitant to participate in college activities. This phase left him unsure of his abilities and disconnected from his environment.
Everything began to change when he joined Shrimad Rajchandra Vidyapeeth for pursuing his M.Sc in Chemistry. The friendly atmosphere, supportive faculty, and opportunities for interaction helped him gradually open up and rebuild his confidence. A major turning point came after the Shrimad Rajchandra Vidyapeeth Student Retreat 2024, wherein inspired by Pujya Gurudevshri’s teachings, which he later followed regularly on YouTube, Uday developed clarity of purpose, self-discipline, and a strong belief in himself.
Guided by these teachings, he prepared for Gujarat State Eligibility Test and Council of Scientific and Industrial Research National Eligibility Test (CSIR NET)using only college resources and online resources. Along with academics, he actively participated in college events, performing a lyrical dance during the Paryushan Mahaparva 2025 in Mumbai. On the same day as his performance, he received news of qualifying for CSIR NET with All India
Rank 73, which was a significant achievement.
Uday now aspires to do a PhD after completing his M.Sc, demonstrating that with the right guidance, inner conviction, and divine inspiration, even the quietest student can rise to remarkable heights. His journey proves that when perseverance is supported by spiritual clarity, every step becomes purposeful, and every challenge becomes a stepping stone.
