From an Ivy League education to Wall Street to fame and fortune as a MTV Rap star, at some point along Nimo’s (stage name) journey he realized that we were walking a path of darkness and that the only path to light is through selfless service for others and our own internal purification. For the past seven and a half years Nimo has been serving the needy and working with under privileged communities in the Gandhi Ashram in India.

Recently Nimo has reconnected to his roots of music and is offering these gifts of love, peace and togetherness through his songs: an offering he calls "Empty hand music." The title 'Empty Hands' was chosen because of the profound wisdom we all can gain when we understand this deep truth: we arrive on this planet empty handed and we will all soon leave empty handed. |
The visit from Nimesh Patel defiantly engraved a mark of remembrance in the minds of the young DS students.
Although Nimesh Patel was slightly late, the students utilized the extra time they had to celebrate the birthday of one of the most humorous, affectionate members of the DS family-Mr.Raymond. With a loud cheer and loads of good wishes, Mr.Raymond turned 48 years old. |
He was then surprised with a song by the senior choir, to which he danced along. Patel declared himself captivated by the next attraction, a spectacular dance performance from our DS dance club's energetic members…that's not all- Mihir Shaik, our DS School Rapper, blew Nimo’s mind with his outstanding rap on being kind and generous and received trucks of appreciation from the guest rapper himself. During these performances, Nimesh Patel had our school’s owner, Miss Verma, right next to him enjoying all the performances showcased by our exceptional students. |
Next, he voiced his message of friendship, love and peace in his rap‘From a small seed, a mighty trunk can grow’. This saying from Nimo meant that we are young, pure and we WANT to help our world, all we need to do is get up and do it!… go ahead and go moral with a pure soul because our pure deeds will grow and become great and maybe on the way, someone might get inspired to do the same(pay it forward). |
