[Goanet] Changing face of Catholicism

[Antonio Menezes]

Well, I am not surprised at all. Way back in the forties, when
I was a student of a Portuguese Secondary School called
Lyceum,I vaguely remember a middle aged staunch Catholic
priest tell me:
''Eu sou (I am ) bramane, catolico e portugues '' in that order.
Of course, there was no question of being a ''Goes'' or for that
matter, being an ''Indiano'' of the ''grande e glorioso Estado
da India Portuguesa.

[Goanet Reader]

Guadalupe: The experience of one pilgrim caught unawares

Nazar da Silva

As a complacent near-nonagenarian, I have learnt to take
long-distance travel in my stride: I read the scenery rather
than sign boards. I get taken to places unknown; but I have
my wits around me for sure.

For instance, my son and I were due to travel from Vancouver
to New York; so I expected to travel from the West coast to
the East. Never having travelled this route before, I looked
out eagerly for landmarks.

There were none. We seemed to be hugging the West coast; that
could only mean we were travelling South! My son reassured
me: "On this route we have to make a transfer in San
Francisco," he said. Thoroughly confused, I resigned myself
to fate! That's when he had pity on me.

  Flash-back: Many years, may be a dozen years ago, I
  was enthralled by an EWTN programme on TV. I only
  got a little bit of the programme but I was
  fascinated by the sheer devotion of the throngs of
  people who sang their hearts out in praise of God
  and in thanksgiving for the gift of His Virgin
  Mother -- Our Lady of Guadalupe.

I spoke to whoever would listen about my experience. It made
no impression on anyone. My own sister who is a nun and has a
two-year advantage over me in seniority, had been posted much
earlier to Mexico City; but she does not have any
recollection of this devotion. I spoke to family members who
live in this part of North America: they love to go to the
beaches on vacation; I said to them: "Go to Guadalupe!" But
then I came to discover: the village of Guadalupe which is
many miles northeast of Mexico City has nothing to do with
this devotion.

Here I am now, on a plane supposedly bound for New York but
proceeding in the exact opposite direction! And now I am
informed that we will be landing in Mexico City at supper
time; the next morning we would celebrate the Eucharist in
'the' Basilica! And, post noon we would be on our way to New York!

I was desperate to know more about the ground realities in
order to plan a programme to fit into such a tight schedule
but language was a problem. At the dining reception, the
person we met was a young lady. Her name was, believe it or
not: Guadalupe! I was over the moon! But not for long.
Language was the barrier. I had to wait until the next
morning. Guess who I met next morning in the vast breakfast
hall?

At 7 o'clock on a Sunday morning, the hall was practically
empty. That is why I noticed the two gentlemen that appeared.
By the time they filled their plates and picked a table to
sit at, I discovered that one of them spoke English! It did
not take me long to go across and barge in on their
conversation.

I got a load of information: In the new Basillica, every
hour, on the hour, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays, the
Eucharist would be celebrated. There is seated accommodation
for 5,000 people in this basilica. It is packed for every
celebration. Masses are also celebrated in the old Basilica
and five other chapels in the immediate vicinity. The 'must
see' sites are the two basilicas and the chapel built on top
of the hill where the Virgin Mother appeared to the peasant
pronounced Saint Joao Diago by Pope John Paul II. All the
holy sites are within one square mile of real estate.

The ride by cab from the airport to the Basilica takes under
twenty minutes if you are lucky to get a parking slot. We
were lucky -- not only with the parking, but also with the
seating in the pews! Apart from the high altar, what drew our
attention was the relic of the cloak protected by a photo
frame fixed to one side on the wall behind.

On a Sunday, there is no way to get close to the relic;
however, at a lower level, behind the main altar, one can
step upon a moving platform that takes you past, but well
below the relic.

The spoken language is Spanish, and all the services
and homilies are conducted in this language. Fortunately,
plenty of room is reserved for the language of Love. Everyone
you are likely to meet is conversant with this language.

But hey! Wait a minute: am I trying to sell the pilgrimage by
describing it in every detail? I hope not!

Physically, for me, the most difficult chapter of this
venture was not the three hundred odd steep steps leading to
the summit of the hillock where the loving encounter between
the Virgin Mother and her faithful disciple took place; it
was not the climb, but the descent to terra firma! If it were
not for my son's arm to which I latched on for dear life, I
could not have made it to ground reality!

With hindsight, I can say that there should be at least two
criteria that establish the success of any pilgrimage: The
first of course is to approach the venture with utmost
humility, and the second is to establish a firm sense of
purpose. If one is lacking in either of these criteria, the
outcome, at best, may be lukewarm.

Put another way: it is quite common to approach a pilgrimage
with an attitude 

[Goanet] Wreck of Portuguese slave ship

[Bernado Colaco]

The wrecks should have been national treasure of Goa and Portugal but according 
to the reports below they have been stripped off their bounty. Moreover I was 
expecting some slaves to be found (reference to the title). But by the looks of 
the article no slave was found or probably they were sold to the richest bidder.

?  Shipwreck treasure off Goa coast
Mayabhushan | Panaji
Next time you are headed for Goa, it makes sense to pack in your scuba gear 
along with swimming trunks.
With more than three shipwrecks discovered and explored off the State?s coast 
in the last seven years, marine scientists at the National Institute of 
Oceanography (NIO) here believe that Goa might be the next big thing as far as 
underwater shipwreck exploration is concerned.?
?We have begun explorations since 1988 but regular, organised explorations 
began in 1997. We had found two ships earlier, but this is the first time we 
found a steel-hulled steamship,? NIO marine researcher Dr Sila Tripathi told 
The Pioneer, adding that the recent find was a century-old merchant ship.?
Over time, however, some of the underwater relics have been stripped bare of 
their merchandise by local divers.
?Boilers, furnace bricks, flanges, broken copper pipes and tubes were found 
scattered over a wide area. The engine, which appears to be a triple-expansion 
type, is reasonably well preserved, though local divers have despoiled the 
wreck in the recent past. They have removed copper alloys, and other attractive 
or saleable items,? Dr Tripathi said.
In the last few years, three wrecks ? including a 17th century merchant ship 
(oldest wreck found in Indian waters to date) ? were found at the Sunchi Reef 
(between Mormugao harbour and the promontories of Cabo headland), a Basel 
Mission Company shipwreck at St George reef (eastern side of Grande Island to 
the south of Mormugao port) and the recently-explored merchant ship at Amee 
shoals (a sand bank that divides the Mormugao bay from the Arabian Sea).
The Sunchi shipwreck, found in 2006, fetched a unique brass barrel of a 
handgun, iron guns, an anchor, Chinese ceramics, Martaban pottery (stoneware), 
assorted bases of glass bottles, elephant tusks, hippopotamus teeth, lead pipe 
fragments, a copper vessel and strip, stone bricks and dressed granite blocks ? 
all sitting pretty at one location.
According to the NIO, the wrecks have offered rare glimpses and vital clues to 
the Portuguese and British maritime trade.?
?The stamps on the flanges and the name on the firebricks of the wreck suggest 
a British origin, and the three scotch boilers indicate that it was a large 
merchant ship (naval vessels used water-tube boilers),? Tripathi said.?
The scientist further said that in the 1880s, steel from Sheffield (England) 
was imported by Portugal for the laying of a railway line from Mormugao to 
Castle Rock, a railway station in Karnataka near the border with Goa. ?The 
vessel could be from that period. However, lack of datable finds means that it 
is difficult to identify the date and origin of this wreck,? Tripathi rued.?
With Goa being a major trading post for the Portuguese, it is suspected that a 
large number of ships sunk off its shores. ?The Portuguese records housed in 
the Goa State Archives, Panaji, and India House, Lisbon, hint at the wrecking 
of numerous Portuguese shipwrecks in shallow waters off Goa, with its 
treacherous reefs and sand-bars, in prevailing storms or due to enemy fire,? Dr 
KH Vora, a marine archaeology project leader at the NIO said.
The Portuguese had established several shipyards in Bassein (Maharashtra), 
Cochin (Kerala), Goa and Daman on the western coast of India.?
Goa alone had three shipyards situated on the banks of the Mandovi. Well-known 
ships that were built in Goa shipyard at the time include the Santo Ant?nio de 
Tanna, Cinco Chagas, S?o Jo?o Baptista, Bom Jesus and Madre de Deus.?

[Goanet] Changing face of Catholicism

[Albert Peres]

Its not the changing face of Catholicism, its simply not Catholic. And 
its simply not Religion, as in 'a particular system' of faith and worship.


This is type of thing the RC Church has had to deal with for centuries...

Aspects of evolution are up for discussion, but heresy in the first 
degree is usually quite obvious..


These stories should be uses as an opportunity to reflect, study and 
deepen faith, trigger an exit, or even start a new religion...

An interesting picture of priests worshipping Lord Ganesh was sent to me

in Goa. In concani one would say - soglem attam boltechz zalam.

[Goanet] Mumbai: `Public has greater role to play in resolving city's traffic chaos' ...TOI 14 Sep pg 9

India

Severe and stringent steps are required to be taken urgently, if we are to save 
our roads from total chaos and mayhem




COMMENT - `Public has greater role to play in resolving city's traffic chaos'
Armin Wandrewala


?
?
The traffic situation on Mumbai's roads is reaching a state of grave concern. 
Severe and stringent steps are required to be taken urgently , if we are to 
save our roads from total chaos and mayhem.

While the authorities --BMC, government, police, transport department--have a 
major role to play in resolving the many issues that plague our roads, the 
general public itself has an even greater role to play , considering that the 
majority of the problems are caused by sheer indiscipline, lack of obedience to 
signals and traffic regulations, and utter lawlessness that road users exhibit 
blatantly, defying laws, rules, regulations, even common courtesy and indeed, 
common sense.

It is a given, today , that hardly anyone halts at a red signal. What is worse 
is, if someone does, they are sought to be intimidated by the vehicles behind, 
into moving ahead, with constant honking, at times even abuses! This happens 
even at pedestrian crossings and the zebra lines continue to be transgressed. 
Often, regrettably , the traffic police at pedestrian junctions urge the 
vehicles ahead, right onto the zebra lines, in a bid to try and diffuse traffic 
jams, without a thought to pedestrians.

The problems are compounded by pedestrians jaywalking , often while talking on 
cellphones, resulting in motorists having no option but to honk, leading to 
noise pollution. Pedestrians sometimes jump over barricades right in the middle 
of the road without a thought to oncoming traffic, even at night. A mishap, if 
occurs, can then create untold problems for the hapless motorist, for no fault 
of his.

Increasingly evidenced is the tendency of motorists --especially bikers--to 
drive on the wrong side of the road and to completely disregard "no-entry" 
signs, creating bottlenecks for the traffic coming the right way . Bikers often 
get onto pavements adding to the woes of the hapless pedestrians.

While illegal parking mushrooms all over, there is the alarming increase in the 
tendency of people to park not only bikes, but even cars on pavements. So, 
pedestrians who are already battling against hawkers, encroachments and filth, 
also have to contend with vehicles parked on pavements.

What is needed is a combined, holistic effort by all road users with sincere 
efforts by the authorities concerned to address our traffic situation, which 
results in more fatalities than does terror. Less tolerance and more outrage 
voices against traffic offenders would perhaps help remedy the situation.

violations and indiscipline)

[Goanet] A Good Samaritian: Amid Violence In Bengaluru, Lorry Owner Becomes Saviour For Tamil Nadu Driver

Amid Violence In Bengaluru, Lorry Owner Becomes Saviour For Tamil Nadu 
Drivers
www.ndtv.com
In the middle of the arson and vandalism seen in Karnataka's Bengaluru on 
Monday over the Cauvery water dispute with Tamil Nadu, one man refused to go 
with the mob.




Shivanna went to the spot where Tamil Nadu-registered buses were being set on 
fire.

BENGALURU:
HIGHLIGHTS

  1.  Shivanna went to Mysuru Road where buses were being set on fire.
  2.  He drove the drivers to the border with Tamil Nadu.
  3.  More than 40 buses were burnt in the depot.

 In the middle of the arson and vandalism seen in Karnataka's Bengaluru on 
Monday over the Cauvery water dispute with Tamil Nadu, one man refused to go 
with the mob.

Shivanna, who has been in the lorry business since 1968, went right to the spot 
where Tamil Nadu-registered buses were being set on fire on Mysuru Road. There 
were flames and smoke everywhere at a depot where more than 40 buses were burnt.

Some of the drivers were hiding in a storage room. They didn't know how to 
escape, until Shivanna helped them.

"I was in Ramanagaram. When I returned to Bengaluru and learnt about the 
protests I checked if my lorries were damaged. Two were. I learnt that the KPN 
buses had been set on fire so I took my car and went there. 42 buses were 
burnt. I looked for the drivers. 15 of them had been taken to a police station 
and the others, all frightened, were hiding in a godown," Mr Shivanna told NDTV.

He found the drivers, put them in the container compartment of his lorry and 
drove them to the border with Tamil Nadu. He said: "I took 31 drivers, put them 
into the bus home and then returned to Bangalore,"

That day, those who were not protesting stayed away from the roads. What made 
Shivanna go the extra distance to help the men?

"My service is mostly in Tamil Nadu. I felt in my mind that I have been eating 
their food so I wanted to help. I also employ 30 drivers from Tamil Nadu. The 
men I took to the border called me when they reached home and blessed me," he 
smiled.

"When we are born as human beings we need to do things like this. Whatever 
state they are from, once they come to Karnataka we must consider them ours and 
help them."

Two persons were killed in protests, several buses were burnt and shops and 
other buildings were vandalized after the Supreme Court announced an order that 
meant Karnataka would have to give more water from the river Cauvery to 
neighbor Tamil Nadu that it had been asked to a week ago.

[Goanet] Wreck of Portuguese slave ship

[eric pinto]

    Shipwreck treasure off Goa coast
Mayabhushan | Panaji
Next time you are headed for Goa, it makes sense to pack in your scuba gear 
along with swimming trunks.
With more than three shipwrecks discovered and explored off the State’s coast 
in the last seven years, marine scientists at the National Institute of 
Oceanography (NIO) here believe that Goa might be the next big thing as far as 
underwater shipwreck exploration is concerned. 
“We have begun explorations since 1988 but regular, organised explorations 
began in 1997. We had found two ships earlier, but this is the first time we 
found a steel-hulled steamship,” NIO marine researcher Dr Sila Tripathi told 
The Pioneer, adding that the recent find was a century-old merchant ship. 
Over time, however, some of the underwater relics have been stripped bare of 
their merchandise by local divers.
“Boilers, furnace bricks, flanges, broken copper pipes and tubes were found 
scattered over a wide area. The engine, which appears to be a triple-expansion 
type, is reasonably well preserved, though local divers have despoiled the 
wreck in the recent past. They have removed copper alloys, and other attractive 
or saleable items,” Dr Tripathi said.
In the last few years, three wrecks — including a 17th century merchant ship 
(oldest wreck found in Indian waters to date) — were found at the Sunchi Reef 
(between Mormugao harbour and the promontories of Cabo headland), a Basel 
Mission Company shipwreck at St George reef (eastern side of Grande Island to 
the south of Mormugao port) and the recently-explored merchant ship at Amee 
shoals (a sand bank that divides the Mormugao bay from the Arabian Sea).
The Sunchi shipwreck, found in 2006, fetched a unique brass barrel of a 
handgun, iron guns, an anchor, Chinese ceramics, Martaban pottery (stoneware), 
assorted bases of glass bottles, elephant tusks, hippopotamus teeth, lead pipe 
fragments, a copper vessel and strip, stone bricks and dressed granite blocks — 
all sitting pretty at one location.
According to the NIO, the wrecks have offered rare glimpses and vital clues to 
the Portuguese and British maritime trade. 
“The stamps on the flanges and the name on the firebricks of the wreck suggest 
a British origin, and the three scotch boilers indicate that it was a large 
merchant ship (naval vessels used water-tube boilers),” Tripathi said. 
The scientist further said that in the 1880s, steel from Sheffield (England) 
was imported by Portugal for the laying of a railway line from Mormugao to 
Castle Rock, a railway station in Karnataka near the border with Goa. “The 
vessel could be from that period. However, lack of datable finds means that it 
is difficult to identify the date and origin of this wreck,” Tripathi rued. 
With Goa being a major trading post for the Portuguese, it is suspected that a 
large number of ships sunk off its shores. “The Portuguese records housed in 
the Goa State Archives, Panaji, and India House, Lisbon, hint at the wrecking 
of numerous Portuguese shipwrecks in shallow waters off Goa, with its 
treacherous reefs and sand-bars, in prevailing storms or due to enemy fire,” Dr 
KH Vora, a marine archaeology project leader at the NIO said.
The Portuguese had established several shipyards in Bassein (Maharashtra), 
Cochin (Kerala), Goa and Daman on the western coast of India. 
Goa alone had three shipyards situated on the banks of the Mandovi. Well-known 
ships that were built in Goa shipyard at the time include the Santo António de 
Tanna, Cinco Chagas, São João Baptista, Bom Jesus and Madre de Deus.

[Goanet] HIGH COURT GRANTS CONVICTED GOAN MODEL SIDDESH JUVEKAR CONDITIONAL BAIL

[Aires Rodrigues]

Justice CV Bhadang of the Bombay High Court at Goa today granted
conditional bail to the jailed convict Goan model Siddesh Dashrath Juvekar.
Suspending the jail sentence pending the hearing of his appeal the Court
has directed that Siddesh Juvekar be released on furnishing a bail bond and
one or two sureties of Rs 50,000. Siddesh Juvekar who has been lodged at
the Colvale Central Jail since 8th September has also been directed to
deposit in Court Rs seven lakhs within two weeks and to pay the total fine
of Rs 15,000 forthwith. Siddesh Juvekar has been further directed to
deposit his passport in Court and not to directly or indirectly contact the
victim girl or the witnesses.



The Court today passed the order after hearing Senior Advocate Surendra
Desai representing the convict, Additional Public Prosecutor Pravin
Faldesai for the State and Adv. Aires Rodrigues representing the victim
girl.



South Goa Additional Sessions Judge Sherin Paul on 8th September sentenced
Siddesh Juvekar to seven years imprisonment for having raped an orphan girl
from Navelim on the false promise of marrying her. The Court also sentenced
him to three years imprisonment for having cheated the victim the girl to
the tune of five lakhs while also directing him to pay the victim a
compensation of seven lakhs. The Court also imposed a fine of Rs 10,000 and
Rs 5000 for the offences of rape and cheating respectively. The Court on
3rd September had convicted Siddesh Juvekar under Section 376 (rape) and
Section 420 (cheating) of the Indian Penal Code for being guilty of rape
and cheating.



Siddesh Juvekar who has been pursuing modeling as a career had represented
Goa and was the first runner up at the ‘Mr. India Man Hunt’ contest held
last year in Delhi by Sky Walk Entertainment. He is a close relative of
Senior BJP leader Pradeep Shet.



Siddesh Juvekar on 13th November 2013 was charge sheeted by then Colva
Police Inspector Nilesh Rane on charges of rape and cheating. Siddesh
Juvekar was accused of having repeated forcible sexual intercourse with the
victim girl under the false promise of marrying her. He was further charged
of cheating the victim to the tune of over Rs five lakhs by taking money
from her on the false pretext of starting a business.



Siddesh Juvekar was however on 4th July 2014 discharged by the then South
Goa Additional Sessions Judge Vandana Tendulkar without going through the
trial. The victim girl through a Criminal Writ Petition moved the High
Court challenging the order discharging the accused Siddesh Juvekar.



Allowing the victim’s petition Justice S.B. Shukre of the Bombay High Court
at Goa on 26th February this year while quashing and setting aside the
South Goa Additional District Judge’s order directed the accused Siddesh
Juvekar to appear before the Margao Sessions Court and to face trial for
the alleged offences.  The Court had also further directed that the trial
be completed within six months.


Justice Shukre in his order observed that the South Goa Additional Sessions
Judge had committed illegality by discharging the accused in disregard of
the well settled principles of law and that such an order cannot stand the
scrutiny of law.
