CA Final result: 4 from Jaipur feature in top 50
Jaipur: Four students from Jaipur secured ranks in the top 50 in the CA Final, and six students secured ranks in the CA Intermediate, the results for which were released on Sunday. The ICAI Jaipur officially released the names of rank holders Monday. The top rankers for the CA Final include AIR 7 Harsh Garg, AIR 20 Narayan Gagar, AIR 32 Shruti Agarwal, and AIR 35 Muskan Jindal. In the CA Intermediate, AIR 3 Yamish Jain, AIR 26 Harsh Khandelwal and Akshita Khandelwal, AIR 28 Kanishka Jain, AIR 42 Paridhi Maheshwari, and AIR 44 Neha Soni are also from Jaipur. In the CA Foundation, Parth Amarnani from the city secured AIR 9 this year. With 486 out of 600, Harsh secured AIR 7 this year in his first attempt. Recalling his time in articleship, Harsh said that initially, he found it hard to cope with work and studies together and often faced downfalls. But with support from his family, he said he was able to keep himself motivated. "I studied for 10–12 hours a day after looking at my friends but then soon realised that it doesn't benefit me and instead leads to feeling low and unmotivated. I used to study for 7-8 hours, which was enough for me," he said. He said that he prepared through self-study and online coaching, focusing heavily on revisions and active recalls. "The key is to have an adequate amount of time for revision, as that is what helps you to remember all that you have learnt," he added. Jain, who secured AIR 3 in the CA Intermediate, said that his inspiration was his uncle, who cleared the exam at a very young age. He began his preparation last year, right after appearing for his foundation exam. "I started consistently preparing from January last year. Watching my uncle clear his CA when I was younger, I made up my mind early on that this is what I want to be," he said. His strategy for preparation, he said, was using the ABC Method – categorising questions based on his academic finesse. "Category A would comprise the best questions, category B would have questions I needed to revise, and the questions I was thorough with made up category C," said Jain.

The trust highlighted various aspects of Jain belief, including Ahimsa (non-violence) and said if animal slaughter takes place during Paryushan Parv then it would be detrimental to the cause of Jainism.

The Hindu centre of the universe
Mythology states that Indra resides at the peak of Meru, which is considered the Stairway to Heaven. This mountain is the one the Pandavas and Draupadi aimed to climb at the end of their lives, but only Yudhishthira, along with Dharma in the form of a dog, was able to reach the summit. Only a being without sins can ascend this mountain. Meru is said to be the home of Kubera, the god of wealth and king of yakshas. King Kesari, the father of Lord Hanuman, is also said to reside on Meru. Lord Shiva dwells on Mount Kailasha. In texts, Meru is described as having incredible dimensions, with its height said to be about one million kilometres—roughly 85 times the diameter of Earth. This towering mountain connects the earth to both heaven and the underworld. Buddhist mythology depicts Mount Meru in almost exactly the same way as Hinduism, as the centre of the world, with the same fantastic height. The Sun and the Moon revolve around Meru, and when the Sun goes behind it, night falls. Meru is said to be hourglass in shape, with a large square top and bottom, but a narrow stem in the middle. The base of the mountain is surrounded by a moat-like ocean, which in turn is encircled by a ring of mountains. There are seven seas and seven mountain rings like this. In Jainism, Mount Meru is again the centre of the world, and there are two sets of Sun, Moon and the stars resvolving around it. While one set does duty, the other set rests behind Meru. Whenever a Jain Tirthankara is born, Indra puts the mother into deep sleep and takes the newborn to his abode on the Meru peak, where his birth is celebrated by the Devas by bathing him and applying divine pastes.
