Laxman Kami
Age 20 – India
Hi my name is Laxman Kami, I am 20 years old. I am from Kailali state in Nepal, but I was born and brought up in Mumbai, India.
I have graduated this year (2016) majoring in accountancy. I am a professional Dancer and am versatile, having trained in western styles such as jazz, jazzfunk, contemporary, hip hop, new style hip hop, lyrical styles, ballet among others. I am very passionate about dancing and spreading the dance knowledge through teaching dance. I teach dance to more than 500 students. My take on peace is more about “Me” being the change, which means in order to spread peace I have to find and attain inner peace in myself. In this case I strongly stick to a golden rule for myself which is “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”.
I believe that doing deeds and acts of love and kindness without expecting anything will help bring about peace and that is what I do and follow always. For example giving out clothes to the needy or food to the hungry without expecting anything in return, be it a smile or thank you. Hence this attitude of me and this particular approach towards bringing about change helps me maintain peace and spread happiness by doing such acts of love. This is what also changes the perspective of the other person towards mankind and that person may also help someone and then making it a large chain is how I feel I work towards peace along with all my friends but the initiative is taken by Us. As now if there needs to be a change that we talk about we need to act and start somewhere and , I take that as a responsibility with the help and support of my friends to take a step towards that change by bringing in peace and uniting one another through it.
