Winners Book of World Records proudly presented the Global Spiritual Leadership Award to Motivational Speaker and Devotional Orator Hon’ble Jaya Kishori Ji, recognizing her profound impact as a guiding light of spiritual wisdom and humanitarian service. The felicitation took place in Pune on 25 November 2025, marking yet another milestone in her remarkable journey of spiritual influence and public inspiration.
The award was presented by model, actress, pageant winner, and Chairman of Winners Book of World Records, Dr. Eesha Agarwal, along with Dr. Dipak Harke, the first Indian to achieve 184 world records. Their presence added immense weight and dignity to the moment, symbolizing how Jaya Kishori Ji’s contributions transcend generations, professions, and cultural boundaries. This accolade honours not just her public presence, but also the sincerity and consistency of her spiritual outreach.
Born on 13 July 1995 in Sujangarh, Rajasthan, as Jaya Sharma, Jaya Kishori Ji grew up in a traditional and spiritually grounded environment. She later relocated to Kolkata with her family, where she pursued her education at Mahadevi Birla World Academy and Shri Shikshayatan College. She shares a close familial bond with her sister, Chetna Sharma.
Jaya Kishori Ji’s spiritual journey began early. At the tender age of nine, she started singing devotional songs and hymns. Under the guidance of her spiritual mentor, Guruji Govind Ram Mishra, she learned to recite revered scriptures such as the Sundarkand Path and Shrimad Bhagavad Gita. Over time, her soulful narrations and devotional storytelling became her signature style, endearing her to millions.
Interestingly, Jaya also showed artistic energy beyond spirituality—she participated in the popular dance show Boogie Woogie as a child. This early exposure to the stage helped shape her confidence and ease with public engagement, qualities that later helped her connect effortlessly with audiences worldwide.
Today, Jaya Kishori Ji is a globally recognized motivational speaker and devotional orator whose talks focus on mindfulness, resilience, compassion, and emotional healing through spiritual reflection. Her YouTube channel reaches millions of viewers with motivational discourses, bhajans, and guided reflections, making her a digital-age spiritual figure who bridges tradition with modern interaction.
However, her public journey has not been without critique. Known for her teachings on non-materialism, she once faced public criticism when she appeared in an airport photo carrying a luxury Dior bag. Although the post was eventually removed, it sparked discussions on modern spirituality and the balance between religious expectations and personal lifestyle. Despite such occasional controversies, her core message of humility, gratitude, and inner growth remains unwavering and continues to resonate with her followers.
Jaya Kishori Ji’s work has received extensive recognition over the years. In 2016, she received the Adarsh Yuva Adhyatmik Guru Award from RSS Chief Shri Mohan Bhagwat. She has also been honoured with the Samaj Ratan Award by Narayan Seva Sansthan, Udaipur, and the Sanskar Artist of the Year (2013–14) by Sanskar Channel. In 2021, her influence extended beyond religious circles, winning Iconic Woman Motivational Speaker of the Year, Best Spiritual Influencer at the Lokmat Digital Influencer Awards, and Best Motivational Speaker on Global Digital Detox Day. Continuing this upward trajectory, in 2022 she received the Most Inspirational Woman of the Year (Spiritual) at the Global Excellence Awards. A significant national honour came on 8 March 2024, when she received the National Creators Award from Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The Global Spiritual Leadership Award presented in Pune is a culmination of her years of dedication, clarity of message, and ability to uplift countless lives. This recognition from the Winners Book of World Records reflects how Jaya Kishori Ji’s teachings have transcended temples, gatherings, online platforms, and even national boundaries. In a world increasingly driven by stress, materialism, and rapid technological change, figures like Jaya Kishori Ji remind society of the timeless value of spirituality, compassion, grounding, and service to humanity. Her journey continues to inspire millions—proving that age is not a barrier to wisdom, and devotion is not restricted to rituals, but lived through one’s actions and intentions.
