Welcome to the Light Academy

This academy is part of my personal journey and even part of my big dream to bridge East and West.

I illustrated my journey in my magazine …

“Kelly in India”

What Exactly is The Light Academy? And how does it work?

This academy is part of my personal journey and even part of my big dream to bridge East and West. As a Belgian, I lived and worked already 5 years in India. I illustrated this journey in my Kelly in India magazine that was published in 2019.

Our Mission 

The life journey of Kelly in India gave birth to this The Light Academy. The Light Academy wants to bring the ancient wisdom from the East to the West. At the same time, the West can bring light to the East by becoming a member of The Light Academy. In this way funds are generated in a sustainable way to provide solar panels with battery backup to government schools in rural areas in India that have now erratic access to the grid.

Our Vision

The ancient wisdom of India is vast and hardly known in its pure form in the West. Via Indian teachers in different topics that Kelly experienced herself, she wants to bring this knowledge to the West. The proceeds generated from your membership will support solar projects in Indian schools who have erratic access to the grid. This solar projects are showcased on kellymermuys.com. The Light Academy bridges East & West and exchanges ‘the light’.

The Light Academy

In India I experienced the power of the mind in yoga, meditation and Ayurveda from its deepest roots taught and guided by authentic Indian teachers. 

At the same time, I played a role in the Indian corporate world in the sector of renewable energy that is even globally still a male dominated world. I Installed solar & wind portfolio management software for big Indian players. I also realized small solar projects on schools in rural India that had no electricity before. Sustainability was always a main driver in my career as a bioscience engineer.

The Light Academy and
the link with Science

I’m also in touch with researchers on the highest level in Western medicine that discovered the glymphatic system in the human brain and optic nerve. This will be key for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer, glaucoma and Parkinson where accumulation of toxins occurs in the brain. It might be possible to measure the effects of practicing yoga, meditation and ayurvedic treatments on the cleansing of the brain. I believe in the link between the power of the mind described in the ancient Indian wisdom and its role it can play in modern Western medicine.

Building a bridge
between East and West

With my Light Academy, I want to build a bridge between East and West. This academy facilitates to bring ‘the light’ in its purest undistorted form from East to West via traditional Indian teachers. It can converge with the innovations in the Western medicine. In exchange, further solar panels will be installed in rural India to light up the lives of so many children.
