OASIS initiates L3 course for teenagers

Oasis L3 Workshop (The Philosophy, Art and Science of Living, Loving and Learning) was introduced for

Teenagers. The Oasis L3 Workshop for Teenagers is an advanced leadership development program under the

IYLDP Project (Indian Young Leadership Development Program). The 4-year workshop series enables overall

self-development of the teenagers. In 2014, first batch of Oasis L3 was launched. In the year 2015, 3 new

batches of Oasis L3 Workshop for Teenagers were formed.

The first batch of Oasis L3 for teenagers was facilitated by Sanjiv Shah and Sheeba Nair. This batch completed

their first year in 2015. The new batches were conducted by new facilitators, namely, Hiral Patel, Pallavi Raulji

and Pratiksinh Parmar.

The purpose of L3 Teens workshops is self-education- educating oneself for living life in a right way, in an

excellent way. As Aristotle has said, “There is no excellence in the whole world which can be separated from

right living.” So this is about excelling in life. It’s about creating a success that is not an illusion- success that is

like true pearls that are unbreakable and not like glass beads that can be broken in no time. Is excellence and

success feasible without this self-education about life and love? This is about providing leadership to self. This

is about life management. This is like getting admitted into a university of love, life, and friendship!

First Oasis Movement Core Community Retreat

It was a milestone for Oasis as the first Annual Retreat of new Oasis Movement Core Community (OMCC) was

organized at Oasis Valleys from 4th to 6th December, 2015. Six generations of Oasis associates - Oasis

Founders, Trustees, Patrons, Close friends, Youth Team and Teenagers - 70 friends, spanning 6 generations

from 14 to 74 years, participated in the retreat. Friends & representatives of Oasis Movement came from

various parts of state & country and also from USA. During the two days of the retreat, in attempt to

understand Oasis Movement better, the community underwent a process of understanding different social

movements and discussed where Oasis Movement stands in comparison with them, how is Oasis Movement

different - be it initiation, leadership, relation with fund, giving to society, visionary or not, what kind of

challenges lie ahead and how we will face them.

Shri Vijay Dalal & Dr. Pravin Shah flew down from USA specially

to attend the retreat. Shri Mahadev Desai, founder of Hu Chhu

Jyotirdhar Movement was also present to support the new

generation. With the new team who made it possible to publish

"Adhyatmani Shodhma" (In Search of Spirituality), Veterans

launched Sanjiv Shah's latest book which was gifted to all.

Written as an account of her association with Oasis, an article published in a gujarati

magazine, 'Jalso', Kshama Kataria tells story of initial years of Oasis. It was very well

appreciated by many writers and publishers as a balanced, mature and honest account of

emerging youth movement, called 'Oasis'.

Friends shared what role Oasis has played in bringing positive change in their

lives. In last more than 25 years, Oasis has seen lots of struggles and has

bravely faced many storms. Oasis has come out strong and tall due to its solid

core based on Principles and Values. These principles and values were

documented systematically in the form of a small booklet and at the end of

the retreat, it was handed over to the young generation of Oasis. This is the

only true Legacy the founders would love to hand over.

Reflections of Oasis Programs and Oasis Valleys

“આ કાય�શાળા �વનમાં ખૂબ ઉપયોગી થશે. કેવી રીતે સામેવાળી �યિ�તન ે �વી - એ બધુ ં અમને �ણવા મ�ું. મારાં બાળકોને કેવી રીતે �વન �વવું એ

I'd heard a lot about Oasis before my visit to its campus on 20th Nov, 2015. After writing on a book published by Oasis in my weekly

column, I came to know about various activities and programs conducted by it. After that, a full-fledged write up by Oasisian and my

friend Kshama Kataria in our half yearly magazine 'Jalso', my desire to visit Oasis became intense.

During our visit there for nearly half a day, not for a single minute did we felt that we were first-timers. An effortless environment of

camaraderie, informality, friendliness was prevalent all the time, as if we know everybody and everybody knows us. The values being

taught there was easily and naturally reflected in everybody's attitude.

The beautiful campus and the hard work to make it so, is worth praising but more important is the values being practiced there.

I wish Oasis would spread its roots more and more into the society and wish the Oasisians all the best for that.

Feedbacks from ASHA Health and Hygiene Course Beneficiaries

“To do special” એટલે કે કોઈ એવું કામ કરવું જ ેસમાજ માટ ેબહુ જ important હોય, પરંતુ, એની સમાજન ેખબર હોવા છતા ંપણ લોકો તે સુધારવાના �યાસો

“While taking adolescence class for government school children I realized that even today so many myths and superstitions are prevailing

in our society.”

- Anjali Jha

"બાળકો સાથે થતા શારી�રક અ�યાયના િવષય માટ ેખબૂ જ દઃુખની લાગણી થતી હતી, આને લઈને હંુ સાભંળંુ કે પેપરમાં વાંચંુ �યારે થતુ ંકે આમાં હંુ કંઈ કરી ના

શકંુ? પરંતુ આ િવષય અહ�યાં શીખીને હંુ બાળકોને સમ�વીશ �યારે હંુ પણ કંઈ કરી શ�યો એ વાતનો મને આનંદ થશ.ે"

- જયમીન પટેલ

“From the beginning till the end everything was amazing. The knowledge, guidance, love, information and the overall experience was

something that not only will help me to polish my skills but also will help me to impart some knowledge to my friends, family, neighbours

and in future my kids; ultimately reaching as many people as possible. The kind of atmosphere built in workshop, is something I liked the

most. When as a health teacher, I came across different views, perceptions, superstitions prevailing amongst children, I realized that our

Nation and society badly needs this kind of Adolescent Health education programs. It is through workshops like this that we can

scientifically address the myths and doubts of our children.”

- Wasim Munshi

The environment created during session was very good. Every one of us was free to ask any type of questions. Our queries were satisfied

entirely. Topics like adolescence, physical and psychological change were discussed without any hesitation. Very happy to see that such

persons are working in India. I must say both of them are very encouraging and positive to everyone.

- Rucha Pardikar

Reflections of government school children on attending sessions of the young Health Teachers:

“Now we know that we can protect ourselves.”

- Anjali Kumari

“We came to know that if somebody touches our private parts we need to do 3 things. 1.Shout, 2.Run and 3.Tell someone you trust.”

- Luhar Devraj

“If someone touches us with bad intentions, we should tell to someone whom we trust the most. And we came to know how to take care

of our private parts and their cleanliness during menstruation.”
