In the complaint jointly addressed to the Secretary of Ministry of Civil Aviation, Chief Secretary of Goa and the Director General of Police it has been sought that an FIR be registered against the organizers of that illegal public meeting besides Amit Shah and all the other dignitaries present at the meeting as they cannot now claim to be ignorant of the legal provisions. In the complaint it has been stated that probably for the first time ever in the history of the country, a public meeting was organized in the high security precincts of an airport when the Goa BJP held a public meeting addressed by party President Amit Shah at Goa?s Dabolim Airport. In total violation of law, on display was sycophancy at its worst, when Amit Shah arrived and contrary to the Airport regulations was allowed to address a public meeting of party workers within the airport premises. Pointing out that the Goa civilian airport functions within the Naval air base and is a Defence establishment, in the complaint it has further been stated that a carpeted podium, chairs for the dignitaries and a sound system was all set up at the entrance of the Dabolim airport terminal where Amit Shah arrived at 11.15 a.m. and addressed the public meeting with the Airport and police officials conveniently looking the other way while the law was being blatantly breached. Alleging that the holding of that public meeting within the Goa airport premises was a complete and gross abuse of power, it has been also stated that the illegal and very highhandedly organized public meeting was attended by Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar, Union Minister Sripad Naik, Goa BJP Chief Vinay Tendulkar, Ministers and MLAs besides hundreds of people who were herded to the Airport. Holding of that public meeting also constituted an act of an unlawful assembly as defined in Section 141 IPC, by which not only mischief had been caused but also other people who were arriving or departing from the airport were restrained by the blockage due to the public meeting, as also the airport being considered a security installation, no public meeting could have been held and that it also amounted to a violation of the other enactments covering vital installations like Airports. In the complaint an immediate inquiry has been sought to ascertain which officers were responsible in allowing this illegal public meeting and that stringent action in accordance with law be taken against the erring officers for having acted as cronies of a political party, in rank dereliction of their duty.

We feel overburdened with the responsibilities of our family, or our job and the pressure only keeps increasing. It seems nobody cares and there is no way out! Those who face this predicament are invited to come to God: ?Come to me, all you that labour and are burdened and I will give you rest says the Lord.? Have an uplifting weekend! -Fr. Jude. Sun. Ref: XIV Sun. ?Come to me, all you who labour and are overburdened I will give you rest? 09-Jul-2017Zech: 9: 9-10; ? ? ? ? ?Rom 8: 9, 11-13; ? ? ? ? ?Matt. 11: 25-30; In today?s first reading Zachariah the last of the minor prophets, describes the coming of the Messiah and his nature as a triumphant and victorious king and yet humble and lowly in nature. In order to belong to the Messiah promised and sent for us we have to fulfill a very important condition: We have to imbibe the spirit of the Messiah without which we cannot belong to him. He gives up all authority and power, he does not control, He walks the way of justice and peace for all. Have we the Spirit of Jesus dwelling in us? Do we live life according to the Spirit of Jesus? What goes around comes aroundWhen I was working as a disc jockey in Columbus Ohio, I used to go to the University Hospital or Grant Hospital on my way home. I would walk down the different corridors and just enter different people?s rooms and read scripture to them or talk to them. It was a way of forgetting my own problems and being thankful to God for my health. I was very controversial on radio. I had offended someone in an editorial that I had done and the person I exposed literally took a contract out on me. One night I was coming home at about two o?clock in the morning. I had just finished working at the night club where I was emcee. As I began to open my door, a man came out from behind the side of my house and said, ?Are you Les Brown?? I said, ?Yes, sir.? he said. ?I need to talk to you. I was sent here to carry a contract on you.? ?Me? Why?? I asked. He said, ?Well, there?s a promoter that?s very upset about the money you cost him when you said that the group that was coming to town was not the real group.? ?Are you going to do something to me?? I asked. He said, ?No.? I was glad. He continued, ?My mother was in Grant Hospital and she wrote about how you came in one day and talked to her and read Scripture to her. She was so impressed that this morning disc jockey, who didn?t know her, came in and did that. She wrote to me when I was in the Ohio penitentiary. I was impressed with that and I always wanted to meet you. When I heard the word out on the street that somebody wants to knock you off? he said, ?I accepted the contract and then told them to leave you alone.?Les Brown in ?A 2nd Helping of Chicken Soup for the soul? This Sunday?s gospel begins on a note of thanksgiving with Jesus acknowledging the Father for hiding things from the wise and the clever and revealing them to infants, to those who stand in humility before God. When the people returned from the Babylonian captivity, the Davidic dynasty no longer ruled in Jerusalem. In a shift it was thought that the ideal king would come in the indefinite future when the Davidic throne would be restored. This gave rise to the idea of the emergence of the Messianic king. Yet, since there was no visible dynasty to produce this figure, other Jewish expectations emerged. Some Jews expected salvation through an ideal priest or prophet like Moses or by God himself without human assistance. It was amidst these expectations that Jesus was born to poor parents in Jerusalem. Jesus himself did not openly claim to be the Messiah. He appeared to be the humble Messiah that Zechariah prophesied a few centuries before the birth of Jesus. Jesus chose the titl e ?Son of Man? while speaking of his life and mission. Jesus is the messiah who lived among suffering humanity, a friend of the out-castes of society, who sought table fellowship with sinners and tax collectors. It is in this context that his invitation to us in today?s gospel becomes intelligible. ?Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble of heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.? Centuries ago Jesus summoned his apostles and disciples and sent them two by two to communicate God?s love, to bind up wounds and to be peace-makers in a troubled world. Jesus knew they would make mistakes; nevertheless he involved them in his mission and gave them his authority. Today, all the baptized understand their call to Jesus?s mission and ministry to others. Whatever our position in society, we are invited to set out with full hearts to build our Church, and help it grow. Armed with faith and our personal experience of Jesus, we can all proclaim with our lives the reign of God. Through simple acts of caring, we have the ability to change the world. By providing a listening ear to the sick or lonely, or companionship to the young or elderly, we are ministers. When we are helpful, loyal and constant without seeking personal glory, we respond to the needs around us and build up the body of Christ. As we are called and respond, so do we also call others to do the same. L et us celebrate this gift and task with thanksgiving. We can make this world better with our lives, let us begin. Where to look for God?s image?You may have heard the ancient tale of God?s original problem: where to conceal his most precious possession, his own image. He called three wise counselors to listen to their suggestions. The first advised God to put his image on the top of the highest mountain on earth where it would be safe forever; God however declined the suggestion. The second wise man proposed that God put his image in the depth of the deepest sea; but God saw submarines in his mind?s eye and said no. The third suggested that God hide his image on the far side of the moon; but God smiled to himself and said even there man could reach it. Then God had his original idea: ?I know where to conceal my image,? he said. ?I will put it where people would never think of looking; I will put it into their hearts. There it will never be discovered.? And the three wise men nodded in agreement; they knew that God was right, indeed right.Denis McBride in ?Seasons of the Heart? Doing goodThere was a queue of people outside the gates of heaven. Each person was asked the question: 'Why do you think you should be admitted?' The first person in the queue, a very religious man, said, 'I studied the Bible every day.' 'Very good,' said the Lord. 'However, we'll have to carry out an investigation to see why you studied the Bible. So please step aside for a moment!' The second was a very pious woman who said, 'Lord, I said my prayers every day without fail.' 'Very good,' the Lord answered. 'However, we'll have to see if your motives were pure, so step aside for a moment.' Then an innkeeper approached. He just said, 'Lord on earth I wasn't a very religious man, but my door was always open to the homeless, and I never refused food to anyone who was hungry.' 'Very good,' said the Lord. 'In your case no investigation is needed, go right in.' -It has been said that if you do a good deed, but have an ulterior motive, it would be better not to do it at all. The onl y exception is charity. Even though it isn't as good as doing it with a pure motive, it is still a good deed, and benefits the other person, no matter what your motive.Flor McCarthy in 'New Sunday and Holy Day Liturgies' Keeper of the flameSometime ago the Los Angeles Times carried a moving story by reporter Dave Smith. It was about a modern Christian who put God first in his life, other people second, and himself third. His name is Charlie DeLeo. After returning from Vietnam, he got a job as maintenance man at the Statue of Liberty. Charlie told the reporter that part of his job is to take care of the torch in the statue's hand and the crown on the statue's head. He has to make sure that the sodium vapour lights are always working and that the 200 glass windows in the torch and the crown are always clean. Pointing to the torch, Charlie said proudly, "That's my chapel. I dedicated it to the Lord, and I go up there and meditate on my breaks." But Charlie does other things for the Lord, as well. He received a commendation from the Red Cross after donating his 65th pint of blood. And since hearing of the work of Mother Teresa in India, he has given over $12,000 to her and to people like her. Cha rlie told the Los Angeles Times reporter: "I don't socialize much; don't have enough money to get married. I don't keep any of my money. After I got my job, I sponsored six orphans through those children's organizations." Charlie ended by telling the reporter that he calls himself the "Keeper of the Flame" of the Statue of Liberty. Later a park guide told the reporter: "Everybody knows Charlie is special. When he first gave himself that title, people smiled. But we all take it seriously now. To us, he's exactly what he says: 'Keeper of the Flame."Mark Link in 'Sunday Homilies' Pay nothing? You get nothing!A man came to buy a saddle for his horse. He saw a fine piece and asked, "How much?" "Five hundred rupees", the shop owner replied. "But that is too much," the man replied. "As it is the saddle is overly decorated. Remove some of the decoration and cut down the price." "All right" the shop owner said and took away some of the decoration. "Now it will be Rs. 400." "Rs. 400? Even that is too much. There is still some decoration you can remove." And so it went on till the price was brought down to Rs. 250. Even so the customer found the price too much. At last the shop owner said, "All right, sir. The saddle will cost you nothing." The buyer asked excitedly, "Nothing? Wonderful! What do I get? The shop owner told him. "Nothing." - We get according to our willingness to pay. This holds good in the spiritual realm too.G.

Gerrard Street Village (Little India, or Gerrard India Bazaar) is the grand old lady of the Indian retail storefronts and restaurants in Canada. There are now numerous South Asia areas in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) among the 100's of other multi-ethnic neighbourhoods. These neighbourhoods are not ghettos but remarkably well organized, internationally integrated, vibrant areas. They are places where people dream hard and work hard. I'm sure this is similar to every city in the Western World.
