The Goa Vipassana Samiti has graciously agreed to do a one-day introductory program for TISA. This would include 3 hours session in morning, 3 hours in evening followed by practice. (Read more about Vipassana by TISA members, to understand how it helps a pws: By Ashish, Tanveer, Pramendra; ed.)

More things to look out for the Regional meet:

1. Colin Coelho, Writer, Music Journalist and Biographer to share his experiences on looking beyond stammering.

About Colin: Colin Coelho is passionate about Music and Writing, and has made it his profession. He has published “Goa in Concert” a literary work in 2009, and has written a column called “Music Mania” on the local daily “O Heraldo” in the past. Presently writing a biography of the famous Goan Musician Anthony Gonsalves, slated to release in June 2015. He’s also presently working on a documentary.

2. Premiere Screening of an inspirational short-film “This book will change your life”. This short film is based on a real life incident / personality and holds a very relevant message for the PWS.

    What a wonderful idea! If I was 18 , I would come just to walk on that beach – and try to climb that tree!! No harm in trying!
    Traveling around itself is a big education and very empowering. Meeting other pws, leaning from their experiences – and learning Vipassana – this would be like icing on the cake.
    Hope our readers well make best use of this opportunity!
