Carnaval  Khell
Zomnivoilo Khell

(watch video above)

Carnaval  khell is a sort of street play, performed out in the open, on 
the ground (no  stage) hence it is known as 'Zomnivoilo Khell' (play 
on ground). Usually its a 3  small plays or 'Partio', there was a time, where 
they even performed up to 6  plays at a time/place. each play would last around 
1 hour.
Band  consists of Drummer, a Trumpeter and Sax /Clarinet and sometimes banjo

Usually,  they (actors) performed in the middle surrounded by the 
people (full circle).  Inside, they too took places in circle. All of 
them would seat on the ground (as  in Indian Toilet seat mode) and as 
and when their turns comes up, they will rise  up.
Eg. One fellow will knock at  the door (saying 'O Ghora' meaning 
'O House' which is equivalent to 'anybody  home?'), he or she will rise 
up and the dialogue is between the two. All others  are seated.
To go to one house or place  to another, small and typical music 
sequence was played indicating their  movement or journey.
No chairs, no table for the  actors. Only the musicians used one bench.
Majority of the people  gathered there would also watch it standing. However, 
few benches were borrowed  /arranged which were meant for benefactors or 
contributors. These benches would  come from people 
houses, as each house had atleast one bench of av. 6 seater.  They used
 to carry these benches on foot for upto 3 kms distance to the  venue.
Venue or mandd for such  khell was fixed or traditional spot. Each 
such spot had it’s own name e.g.  Ambddeakodde, Ambeakode (legend - such 
as name of trees, houses,  person etc)
Each play  will start with an opening song called ‘imno’
All other singing was in  voices (first-Second) and the songs related 
to the play performed.
It’s like half the  conversation though songs. Typical characters were 
of Bhatkar (Landlord), Mauxi  (usually a wicked Aunty (male), Shett or 
Konknno (Hindu dress ‘puddvem’), Police,  Balla or Sadhu etc.
There were no females acting  but men dressed as female. Some actors 
always did female role for which they  were good at, year after year. 
Present day Tiatr (Konkani  Drama)originated from this Traditional  Khell.
Beside, 3 carnival days,  such plays were also performed on and after Easter 
for a week or two

[Goanet] Letter to CBI on Vanxim scam

2016-02-09 Thread Sebastian












Date: 01st
February 2016

To,

The Director/ In-charge,

Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)

Bambolim, Goa




Terms of references :
Investigations into layers of corruption in Vanxim, Goa




Sir/Madam,

It has come to our notice that there has been very high
level of layers of corruption in Vanxim land deal in Tiswadi, Goa involving Goa
Archbishop and various offices of Goa Government. We list them out for your
information for further investigation, gathering of evidence and prosecution of
those involved in this scam.

Bharat
Mukti Morcha calls for CBI probe on below counts:

1.    Whereabouts
of black money generated through sale of Santa Monical land at Vanxim to
Mahendra Gaunekar by Diocesan Procurator Fr. Arlino D’mello on behalf of
Archbishop Felipe Neri Ferrao at the rate of 6 rupees and 20 rupees violating
Civil law regulating tenancy as well as Cannon Law regulating Church properties
on February 11, 2006. People of Goa has a duty as well as right to know as to
the depth of these underground operations taking place in Bishop’s House in
Panjim. Vanxim people intending to purchase the land are told to pay at the
rate of Rs.1350/- per square meter while Vanxim land was sold to Gaunekar at
the rate of Rs. 6/- and Rs. 20/-. This land belongs to the Santa Monica
Convent, Old Goa that was vested with land titles by various people over the
past few centuries. These lands that were given to the Church was with certain
obligations to be fulfilled by the Church. The inventory of the land gifted to
Santa Monica be examined to find out as to who gave Vanxim to Santa Monica and
for what purpose. Archbishop Ferrao sold 4,85,275 square meters of land claiming
to be at the rate of Rs.20/-. At this rate total amount comes to
Rs.97,05,150/-. Sale deed however shows that Archbishop received Rs.
55,04,150/-. When Archbishop was questioned on this he had no answers and put
his head down. This is total fraud of accounts on the sale deed.

2.    Probe
into the political nexus involving Ozone corporate and top politicians of Goa.
Closer examination of Joint Development Agreement of August 11, 2009 between
Mahendra Gaunekar in his wife on one side and various groups connected with
Ozone corporate reveals that Mahendra Gaunekar is to overcome environmental
regulations in force through political maneuverings. In this respect probe
nexus with top politicians of Goa who has been bribed to keep silence on
Vanxim. Specially probe role of Digambar Kamat who is Goa’s past Chief
Minister, Churchill Alemao who is Goa’s past PWD minister who visited Vanxim
advocating the cause of Ozone corporate, MLA Mickey Pacheco, MLA Vishwajeet
Rane, ex-member of Parliament Francisco Sardinha, and any other politician CBI
may suspect.

3.    Probe
into role of Defence Minister of India Manohar Parrikar, his secretary 
Krishnamurthy
and his wife Sajla Chawla Krishnamurthy who is reported as Deputy General
Manager of Ozone corporate. Defence Minister through series of nexus is
directly involved in Vanxim scam as reported by Prime Media TV channel.

4.    Probe
the corruption involving current Chief Minister of Goa Parsekar, Tourism
Minister Parulekar and Cumbharjua MLA Pandurang Mandkaikar with their links
with Ozone corporate and attempted cover ups of frauds involved. The local MLA
Madkaikar gave 1000 rupees each and took 5 buses of people to the TCP office in
support of Ozone corporate. To make up for the crowd even migrant labourers
were roped in.

5.    Probe
into role of past deputy Collectors at Panjim office who entertained
‘Condonation of delay’ applications and passed orders in favour of Ozone
corporate even though Deputy Collector has no powers to do so. Two of these
deputy collectors against whom CBI probe is a must are Sabhaji Shetye whose
current posting is in Vasco and Sanjeev Desai who has been rewarded with
posting as Director of Tourism. Sanjeev Desai wrote in his judgments that they
were dictated in the open court while we know from Ligorio Silviera case
judgment that this was not true as judgment was never dictated in open Court.
We suspect that all the judgment in condonation of delay were written in the
office of legal officers attached to Mahendra Gaunekar and Ozone corporate.
Probe is needed in this regard. All the names on form I & XIV are totally
and completely fraud as they are based on Deputy Collectors entertaining of
condonation of delay. The powers to entertain the condonation of delay are with
Administrative Tribunal. All the orders issued by Deputy Collector are void in
law.

6.    Probe
into the properties of Santa Monica sold to Mahendra Gaunekar. How Santa Monica
did have hold of the land in Vanxim? who gave? Under what obligations? When?

We will appreciate your positive approach and action so
that Goa/ Vanxim get Justice though Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) which
is our hope.




Thanking you,

[Goanet] Objections to Investment Promotion Board recommendation to convert Vanxim (Capao) land as settlement zone

2016-02-09 Thread Sebastian












01st February 2016












To,

Secretary
(Town and Country Planner)

Secretariat,
Porvorim, Goa




To,

The Chief
Town Planner,

Town and
Country Planning Department,

Panjim, Goa










Subject: Objections to Investment
Promotion Board recommendation to convert Vanxim (Capao) land as settlement
zone to set up 5 star hotel and villas by Ozone Leisure and Resort Pvt Ltd.




Sir,

We have come
to know from the media reports on January 01, 2016 that Investment Promotion
Board has recommended conversion of 82,295 sq.mts of orchard land in Vanxim
(Capao) in Tiswadi as settlement zone granting in-principle approval to the
project of Ozone Leisure and Resort Pvt Ltd consisting of 5 Star Hotel and
luxury villas.

We write to
object the same on following grounds.

1.   
Investment
Promotion Board has never conducted site inspection to verify the nature of
land in Vanxim. Vanxim is an island in Mandovi river and CRZ regulations are
applicable on all sides. Besides it is also low lying area with biologically
active mud flats, Khazan land, mangroves and sluice gates. 

2.   
The
transfer of occupancy rights from Santa Monica of Old Goa to Ozone Leisure and
Resorts Pvt Ltd are fraud as it is
effected with cases against tenants for condonation of delay in Deputy
Collectors’ office in Panjim when deputy collector has no powers to entertain 
such
cases. The powers rests with Administrative Tribunal and hence entire occupancy
rights in favor of Ozone Leisure and Resorts Pvt Ltd is void. We have called
for Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe against the two former deputy
collectors involved in this scam namely Shabaji Shetye and Sanjeev Desai. 

3.   
Investment
Promotion Board is outsourcing of cabinet powers to private entities under
Investment Promotion Act 2014. This law overrides Panchayati Raj Act, TCP Act
as well as Land Revenue Code besides making mockery of the democratic system.
Through this law democracy has been replaced with dictatorship. The elected
representatives who supported this law have either not applied their minds or
willfully betrayed their voters. The transfer of powers of Cabinet to the
private actors spread out all over the country and beyond is unacceptable. We
do not support this law and it must be repealed with immediate effect. We urge
you to reject the Investment Promotion Board recommendation for land
conversions in Vanxim.

4.   
The
decision of the Investment Promotion Board to bully Town Country Planning
Department into getting ecologically sensitive areas of Vanxim is motivated by
high level of political interference and we have already called for CBI probe
into these links involving Indian Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar, His
secretary Krishnamurthy and Krishnamurthy’s wife Sejla Chawla Krishnamurthy who
is Deputy General Manager at Ozone Leisure and Resorts Pvt Ltd. We have already
called for CBI investigations into this nexus reported by Prime TV Channel in
Goa.

5.   
Occupancy
rights on tenanted land in Vanxim (Capao) has been transferred to Ozone Leisure
and Resorts Pvt Ltd by Archbishop Felipe Neri Ferrao via Mahendra Gaunekar
violating Tenancy law and Canon law by selling land without informing tenants.
The tenants and the People of Vanxim were not aware and were never informed
that the sale deed was registered. Only after four years of the registration of
the sale deed Vanxim People came to know about the same when some people from
Vanxim were taken to Bicholim and made to put their thumb on documents and
offered cash. These people who put their thumb did not know to read and write.
So total manipulation and fraudulency involved. Few from amongst those who knew
to read and write asked for documents and then the entire game plan was
revealed followed by which we went in for RTIs and got all details. We have
called for CBI investigations into this aspect too.

6.   
There
has been opposition to this project at Malar Panchayat Gram Sabhas as well as
Town and Country Planning office. Now Investment Promotion Board decision on
Vanxim is a coup-d’état against every
democratic institution on ground and complete insult to these institutions.
Democracy has been replaced with Dictatorship and Goa has been converted into
Colony open for abuse. The political consequences of Investment Promotion Act 
2014
is loot and plunder of Goa’s land, and Jurisprudential value of this Act can
best be compared to an assembly of thieves gathering in the middle of the city
hall and proclaiming their decree.

7.   
Investment
Promotion Act 2014 is direct violation of not only Article 48-A and Article 51
–A (g) but also of Article 21(Right to life) of the Indian Constitution.
Supreme Court relying on Article 21 declared in M.C. Mehta V/s Union of India
(1987) that life; public health and ecology have priority over unemployment and
loss of revenue. 

8.   
In
M.C.Mehta V/s Union of India (1997) the Supreme Court of India has enunciated
the doctrine of “Public Trust”, based on 

[Goanet] Press Release on illegal fishing in Zuari

2016-02-09 Thread Sebastian










01st February 2016










Bharat Mukti Morcha is deeply concerned about continues
violation of fishing rights in Zuari River by trawlers carrying on illegal
fishing in Zuari and mini – per seining. Daily monitoring of the illegal
fishing activities in Zuari was repeatedly brought to the notice of the
Fisheries department as well as Coastal Police. However both have proved to be 
flop in tackling the situation. Breakdown of
patrol boat has been their favorite excuse. 




Bharat Mukti Morcha has long been
suggesting to fisheries department to have full time Patrol boat 24 hours
everyday to demonstrate its serious commitment to the task at hand. Bharat
Mukti Morcha worried about the repeated bungling from Fisheries department in
responding to the calls on illegal fishing in Zuari. We have realized that
Fisheries department too is kept itself deliberately ill prepared to tackle
illegal fishing in Zuari.

[Goanet] Terminate MPT lease deeds for Marinas in Zuari

2016-02-09 Thread Sebastian










01st February 2016

Press Release calling for termination
of MPT lease deeds for Marinas in Zuari




Bharat Mukti
Morcha calls for termination of two Lease Deeds in Marinas at Nauxim in Tiswadi
and Sancoale in Mormugao signed by MPT with two private firms Kargwal
Construction Pvt Ltd, Mumbai and Yacht Heaven (Goa) Pvt Ltd, Vasco. Lease Deeds
were signed in October 2010. As per these deeds MPT has claimed jurisdiction
over waters of Zuari River from the mouth of Arabian Sea up to Cortalim Ferry
point from May 2000 onwards and plans to lease out River to various private
companies. The most objectionable aspect of the these two Lease Deeds is that
fishermen fishing in Zuari river are not even acknowledged and leased out over
2,50,000 sq.mts of river between two low tide lines on shore in North and South
of Zuari. Over Few hundred  fishermen
carry on the fishing activities in this river and support their livelihood.

The closer
examination of both the marinas based on the data submitted by the two marina
companies in Form I to Goa Coastal Zone Management Authority confirms that
there will not be any scope left for fishing as there will be breakwaters in
the middle of the river, dredging of the fertile fishing grounds to increase
depth to navigation channel for yachts, backfilling of river and reclamation of
land from the river.  

Goa’s
Environment Minister Rajendra Arlekar’s comments that Marinas are like taxi 
stands
are wrong. Both marinas details are submitted to Goa Coastal Zone Management
Authority. He just has to apply his mind and get the papers and study. But
since he is biased against fishermen and is determining to misguide them he is
not taking this route. Mrs. Alina Saldanha was sacked as Environment Minister
few months ago because she upheld the interest of the fishermen and opposed
marinas totally. 

BMM is
surprised that Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB) in its 119th
meeting on 28th January 2016 has discussed issue of Marinas in Zuari
without meeting with fishermen in Zuari who are protesting the marinas
inflicted dead end to fishing to be replaced with high end tourism. BMM is
shocked to note that GSPCB has initiated the process of issue Consent of 
establish
and consent to operate for two marinas. This is latest exclusion of fishermen
in Zuari river from decision making process. It is high time to put an end to
this style of decision making.

[Goanet] COMPLAINT FILED AGAINST GOA CIC PRASHANT TENDOLKAR FOR ILLEGALLY USING RED BEACON

2016-02-09 Thread Aires Rodrigues
A complaint has today been filed against Goa’s Chief Information
Commissioner Prashant Prabhu Tendolkar for illegally and blatantly using a
red beacon on his official vehicle GA-07-G- in clear defiance of law
and amounting to a gross contempt of the Supreme Court’s order.

In the complaint jointly addressed to the Chief Secretary, Director General
of Police and the Director of Transport it has been pointed out that the
Supreme Court has flagged the red card over the blatant misuse of the red
beacon.

It has been further pointed out that in accordance with the Supreme Court
order the Goa Government by a notification issued on 3rd July 2014 notified
the list of persons entitled to use the red beacon on their official
vehicle and that as per that notification only allowed to use the red
beacon are the Governor, Chief Minister and Ministers, Speaker, Deputy
Speaker, Chief Justice and Judges of the High Court, Leader of Opposition,
Advocate General and the Chief Secretary.

Prashant Tendolkar in clear defiance of law and in gross contempt of the
Supreme Court’s order is illegally using the red beacon. The law
enforcement officers though fully aware of this blatant violation have
failed to take action against Prashant Tendolkar just because he is
politically well connected.

The rule of law must prevail and Prashant Tendolkar cannot be high-handedly
using a perk and privilege that he is not entitled to. Immediate action
must be taken to seize the red beacon and prosecute Prashant Tendolkar for
an offence under the Motor Vehicles Act. Failure to take action would also
amount to contempt of the Supreme Court’s order.

[Goanet] CLEANING UP ST INEZ CREEK: LONG WAY TO GO

2016-02-09 Thread Stephen Dias
-
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Posted by: nt  February 9, 2016 in
Commentary 

*Cleaning Up St Inez Creek: Long Way To Go*

In my letter dated November 29, 2015, I was a bit harsh on the status of
the St Inez Creek and I may have appeared to be sarcastic about the work
undertaken by the Panaji MLA and that of the Goa State Pollution Control
Board. At the outset, I must confess that I am not undermining the hard
work undertaken and I hope that we become successful in rejuvenating the
creek soon. But as a scientist and after interacting with scientists, I
wish to caution the MLA about being over enthusiastic about what appeared
in The Navhind Times report on St Inez Creek. May I present some hard
facts, not in order to criticise, but out of caution. Cat fish (or the
so-called ‘thigur’) breeds in polluted waters. It is a sturdy and slippery
fish (much more than ‘sangtam’) and can withstand depleted and variable
oxygen levels. During my childhood, we used to catch these ‘thigurs’ mostly
in the well-known ‘thigur baem,’ which used to be a freshwater well. It
would take a few years for a ‘thigur’ to reach the size it appeared in the
picture accompanying the report. The aeration experiment started only a few
months back and, therefore, either the cat fish was already breeding in the
creek before the aeration, or else it was planted there. Cat fish inhabits
polluted water and hence finding one in the creek is no indication of
reduction of levels of pollution. I am not trying to be cynical, but there
is an English saying ‘One Swallow (bird) does not make a Summer.’
Similarly, one cat fish is not a reason for optimism. We have a long way to
go and I and my friends will stand by the authorities and help them and the
MLA in the hard work undertaken and vision to see the St Inez Creek being
restored to its original glory.

[Goanet] AIFF REPORT: INDIAN WOMEN BLAST FIVE GOALS PAST SRI LANKA

2016-02-09 Thread AIFF Reports
Dear colleagues,


Please find below the match report of India’s clash against Sri Lanka.


*We request you to follow AIFF Twitter Handle @AIFFMedia for regular
updates.*


Regards,
AIFF Media Team




*INDIAN WOMEN BLAST FIVE GOALS PAST SRI LANKA*

*AIFF Media Team*



*NEW DELHI:* It rained goals in Shillong on February 09, 2016 as the Indian
Women’s Senior National Team hammered Sri Lanka 5-0 in a one sided
encounter at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in the ongoing 12th South Asian
Games.



A brace from Dangemi Grace and strikes from Sasmita Malik, Kamala Devi and
a Sri Lankan own goal gave the Indian Women an easy win over Sri Lanka,
leading them to garner 4 points out of 2 matches.



“We took our chances today and the result is there for all to see. However,
we should not get carried away with the result”, Head Coach of the Indian
Senior Women’s National Team Sajid Dar told www.the-aiff.com.



“We face Nepal next and we have to remain focused on the task at hand”, he
added.



Coming on the back of a goalless draw against Maldives, the Indian Women
tried to pile pressure on their opponents by taking an early lead. In the 4
th minute, Bembem Devi’s rasping shot from outside of the box was saved by
the Lankan custodian. Two minutes later, Prameshwori Devi’ cross which was
intended for Kamala Devi was collected by the opponent’s custodian.



With the crowd hollering the Indian Women through with chants of ‘India,
India’, the Women showcased fluid attacking football, whilst keeping
possession, as they pinned Sri Lanka in their own half.



In the 18th minute, Bembem Devi tried to chip the Lankan Goalkeeper with a
cheeky effort, but the custodian made a fine save to deny Bembem the joy of
scoring.



The breakthrough finally came for the Indian women in the 24th minute,
albeit from an own goal, as the Lankan defence line headed the ball into
their own net, following a Sasmita Malik corner kick to give India a
solitary goal lead.



Rejuvenated by taking the lead, the Indian Women tried to double their lead
as they initiated a flurry of attacks. In the 35th minute, Bembem Devi
released Grace onto goal with a long ball, but the latter ran into
defensive traffic.



Shortly after, Prameshwori Devi, with the goal at her mercy failed to score
as she hoofed the ball over the bar, after Sasmita Malik’s shot earned an
uncanny save from the Lankan keeper. In the 44th minute, Prameshwori Devi
after wriggling past the Lankan defence line, cut inside from the right
flank and teed-up Kamala Devi in the 18 yard box, who ran into defensive
traffic as the opportunity went abegging.



Almost right at the stroke of halftime the Indian Women doubled their lead
as Dangmei Grace blasted her opportunity home to make the half-time
scoreline read 2-0.



The Indian Women picked up right where they left off and Kamala Devi
rattled the Lankan crossbar with a thunderous shot seconds in the second
half. In the 55th minute, Prameshwori Devi failed to tap the ball home from
hand-shaking distance after she was found clear of the defensive mix by a
Sasmita Malik cross.



Three minutes later, a rocket of a strike from Dangmei Grace from outside
of the box, which flied straight into the top corner of the Lankan goal
gave India a 3-0 lead. In the 60th minute, the goal-scorer turned provider,
as Grace released a graceful cross for Kamala Devi, only for the latter to
tap home as the scoreline read 4-0 in favour of India.



In the 73rd minute, Kamala Devi was brought down inside the 18 yard box
following an uncanny tackle from the Sri Lankan defence line as the referee
pointed to the spot. Sasmita Malik slotted it comfortably past the Sri
Lankan custodian from the penalty spot to make the scoreline read 5-0.



With India taking an unassailable lead, the ‘Women in Blue’ kept possession
and saw out the match as the full-time scoreline read 5-0. The Indian Women
clash swords against Nepal next on February 11, 2016.



*India starting XI against Sri Lanka:* Aditi Chauhan (GK); Umapati Devi,
Ashalata Devi, Manisa Panna, Supriya Routray; Premi Devi (86’ – Sangita
Basfore), Bembem Devi (C), Dangmei Grace, Sasmita Malik, Prameshwori Devi
(59’ – Sanju), Kamala Devi (76’ – Bala Devi).

[Goanet] Off Topic: BBC Handbooks (yearbooks) fascinating reading for media wonks

2016-02-09 Thread Albert Peres

BBC Year Book - BBC Hand Book

BBC Publications
  The British Broadcasting Corporation issued a Year Book beginning in 
1928 and which wandered through the decades, eventually expiring in the 
80's to be replaced by a financial report suitable for a banker and not 
a broadcaster.


The BBC Hand Book was first issued in 1928. As either the Hand Book or 
Year Book, it was published through the 1987. The contents were a 
review of the year's programming, cultural and technical achievements.
From 1988 onwards, it was "replaced" by the BBC Annual Report, some of 
which are included here.

[Goanet] GOD - Do you know ? part 2of 4

2016-02-09 Thread Devak Argham
The following verses from the Bible gives us an understanding of where
God is not present :

Where God is not present !

Acts of the Apostles Chp. 17 : 24-26

24 The God who made the world and all that is in it, the Lord of
heaven and earth, does not dwell in sanctuaries made by human hands,
25 nor is he served by human hands because he needs anything. Rather
it is he who gives to everyone life and breath and everything. 26 He
made from one- the whole human race to dwell on the entire surface of
the earth, and he fixed the ordered seasons and the boundaries of
their regions
(God does not dwell in temples made by human hands. He does not need
the service of humans to survive but it is man who needs God because
it is he who gives life and breath and everything.)

Mark Chapter 13 : 1 – 2

1 As he was making his way out of the temple area one of his disciples
said to him, “Look, teacher, what stones and what buildings!” 2 Jesus
said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be one
stone left upon another that will not be thrown down.”
(Does it mean that when this man made temple for God crumbles, God who
is presumed to live there will get smashed with the temple right? No
he does not live in temples made by human hands.)

Isaiah Ch. 66 : 1 – 2

1 Thus says the LORD: The heavens are my throne, the earth, my
footstool. What house can you build for me? Where is the place of my
rest? 2 My hand made all these things when all of them came to
be—oracle of the LORD. This is the one whom I approve: the afflicted
one, crushed in spirit, who trembles at my word

Acts of the Apostles Ch. 7 : 47 – 50

47 But Solomon built a house for him. 48 Yet the Most High does not
dwell in houses made by human hands. As the prophet says: 49 ' The
heavens are my throne, the earth is my footstool. What kind of house
can you build for me? says the Lord, or what is to be my resting
place? 50 Did not my hand make all these things?'
(What type of resting place or house can one build for the creator of
this universe. God whose throne is the heavens and earth his
footstool, the creator of this universe does not dwell in small small
temples made out of human hands. So God does not reside in dwellings
made of human hands.)

Psalms Ch. 115: 3 – 8

3 Our God is in heaven and does whatever he wills. 4 Their idols are
silver and gold, the work of human hands. 5 They have mouths but do
not speak, eyes but do not see. 6 They have ears but do not hear,
noses but do not smell. 7 They have hands but do not feel, feet but do
not walk; they produce no sound from their throats. 8 Their makers
will be like them, and anyone who trusts in them.
(The above verses tells us about one more place where God does not
dwell – Idols and Images made out of human hands. Their makers and one
who trust in them also become like them. They have ears but cannot
hear, nose to smell but cannot smell, they have hands but no feelings,
feet but cannot walk and throats but no sound. In short no life. How
can The Creator who created mankind out of dust and breathed life into
it, live in images made by human hand.! The pictures, images or
statutes are only for remembrance. Well one more place where God does
not dwell – Images or idols made of gold, silver clay or wood etc. by
human hands)

John Ch. 2 : 19 – 20

19 Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple and in three
days I will raise it up.” 20 The Jews said, “This temple has been
under construction for forty-six years, and you will raise it up in
three days?”
( Jesus spoke here of another temple which is discussed later )

Romans Ch. 1 : 21- 24

21 for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or
give him thanks. Instead, they became vain in their reasoning, and
their senseless minds were darkened. 22 While claiming to be wise,
they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for
the likeness of an image of mortal man or of birds or of four-legged
animals or of snakes. 24 Therefore, God handed them over to impurity
through the lusts of their hearts for the mutual degradation of their
bodies. (The glory of the immortal God, was replaced foolishly, in the
image of mortal man, birds, animals and reptiles. Meaning Immortal God
does not dwell in dead humans or birds, fish, animals and reptiles. To
sum it up : 1. God is not present in temples built of human hands 2.
God does not dwell in Idols and Images made by human hands. Idols and
Images of animals, bird, fish or reptiles and in dead humans.)

Now that we have seen where 'I AM' is not present. We need to know
where is God present. Before that it is important to understand WHO or
WHAT is God

YOU ARE WELCOME TO SHARE THE WORD.

Mark 8:36 -  For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the
whole world, and lose his own soul?
