Parra the Beautiful.

With the onset of the monsoons, conditions were just right for this setting
last
month in Parra, my ancestral village in Goa. My father was born here and our
last name derives from it. (It is also the home of the disastrous clown who
recently served as India's Defense Minister.)

 Yes, of course; but is the horse not already half out of the barn? In
mid-seventies I attended 'upadesa' sessions given in Mysore by 'Father
Amalor' (Amalorananda) --- Reverend D.S. Amalorpavadass, who championed
'Inculturation' in the wake of earlier spiritual leaders who insisted that
the Vedanta & Christianity are joined in the natural evolution of East/West
human culture becoming 'planetized'. Later 'tributaries' such as Islam, in
due Evolutionary fashion join the mainstream---but everything takes Time!

Amalor's detractors accused him of trying to 'Hinduise Christianity' and
went to the extent of making a legal issue of it (in Madras/Chennai) which
fortunately did not go very far.  These Issues are not 'solved' by the
stroke of some power-broker pen but by a collective effort involving
'lifestyle adaptations'. Open Letter signed by Christian Intellectuals is
commendable, but there can be danger of 'activist-sounding brass & tinkling
cymbal'.

Break Your Silence: 101 Christian Intellectuals to the Church in India
THE CITIZEN BUREAU
Break Your Silence: 101 Christian Intellectuals to the Church

Saturday, August 05,2017

NEW DELHI: A 101 Christian intellectuals from all walks of
life have written an Open Letter to the silent---and as some
would say---the rather timid leadership of the Church in
India to come out in support of civil society in its struggle
to "safeguard India's cultural and religious plurality and
diversity, and the republics Constitutional values of
secularism, and socialism."

The signatories include Jesuit theologians T K John and
Francis Gonsalves, academicians Sr. Nirmalini, AC, Dr.
Michael Williams, and St Stephen's college dean Fr Monodeep
Daniel, All India Catholic Union president Lancy D Cuna, EFI
general secretary Rev Vijayesh Lal, New Delhi YMCA president
Vijay Russel, Former Member of Delhi Minorities Commission AC
Michael, activists Cedric Prakash, Ajay Kumar Singh, Dominic
Emmanuel, Virginia Saldanha, lawyers Jenis Francis, Tehmina
Arora, Pramod Singh, PI Jose, and journalists Suresh Mathew,
Jacob Kani, KM Selvaraj, and John Dayal.

  The Open Letter states: "The number of violent acts
  against Christians alone during the last three
  years (2014-2016) are over 600, including an
  increasing trend at social boycott that impinges on
  the right to life, food and livelihood. This
  includes physical violence, stopping of worship in
  churches, attacks on churches, arrests of pastors
  and their companions, and rapes of Nuns. The
  National Crime Records Bureau documented 47,064
  acts of violence against Dalits in 2014, up from
  32,643 in 2010. The violence against Muslims is
  reaching an alarming peak. The hate spewed not just
  by non-state actors and political functionaries,
  but even by Members of Parliament and sometimes by
  ministers forms the backdrop of this violence, as
  it also smothers voices seeking justice."

The Christian community, despite its laudable heritage of the
prophetic tradition of defending justice, human rights and
freedom, especially of the oppressed and the marginalized,
has not come out openly in support of the truth and its
upholders. Many had looked upon the Church and expected it to
protest these infringements, whoever be the victim of the
moment.

"The Church, guided by you, needs to act before it is too
late. This is the lesson we learn from history. It is time to
stand with the victims to be the voice of poor and
marginalised; time to collaborate and partner with the civil
society to spread the truth; and time to take bold
initiatives and action to prevent further erosion of our
humane and constitutional values," the Open letter said.

The following is the text of the letter and the names, in
alphabetical order, of the signatories:

"We, as Indian Christians, are concerned at the steady shift
we see in our country from a pluralist, secular, democracy to
a Hindu Rashtra. What used to be fringe, has now become
mainstream. There is a systematic design to undermine the
Constitution. Official machinery often seems working in
tandem with the 'vigilantes'. Street lynching, victims
charged as accused, stage-managed trials; all on the basis of
one's religious and caste identities. Media seems mute,
silent in self-censorship, coerced by the state, or leashed
by its corporate ownership. Fake News is the final straw.

What is at stake? The country risks a hierarchical order and
an ideology eroding, containing and overwhelming the liberty,
equality and fraternity bequeathed us by the Freedom Struggle
as an 'idea of India' for the modern age. A new coercive
culture, steered mob-inspired killers, is destroying lives
and families amongst us. Fear stalks the land.

  The spontaneous multi-city #NotInMyName upsurge of
  public revulsion was the ordinary Indian's cry
  against this hate and blood-letting.

The anger is as much over the killings as it is over our
collective silence.

The government's double talk is apparent. It is right in its
solidarity with the global challenge to international
terrorism, but has minimized and dismissed the terror wreaked
on the weak and the marginalized by the violent nationalism
of the mob. Victims have been Dalits, specially their youth
and their women, Tribals and religious minorities.

The number of violent acts against Christians alone during
the last three years (2014-2016) are over 600, including an
increasing trend at social boycott that impinges on the right
to life, food and livelihood. This includes physical
violence, stopping of worship in churches, attacks on
churches, arrests of pastors and their companions, and rapes
of Nuns. The National Crime Records Bureau documented 47,064
acts of violence against Dalits in 2014, up from 32,643 in
2010. The violence against Muslims is reaching an alarming
peak.

[Goanet] XIX Sunday of the Year

[Jude Botelho]

08-Aug-2017
Dear Friend,
Often we want God to act dramatically and sensationally in our lives and in the 
lives of others! In reality our God acts in small and unobtrusive ways often 
unnoticed and unheeded by us. Our all-powerful God is a God of small things! He 
does not display his power yet works in wonderful ways for us and with us. Have 
an exciting week discovering his quiet action and presence in our lives! -Fr. 
Jude
Sunday Ref: XIX Sunday “Courage! It is I, the Lord! Do not be afraid!”          
 13-Aug-2017Readings: 1 Kings 19: 9, 11-13;          Rom.9: 1-5;          Matt. 
14: 22-33;
In the first reading we meet Elijah the prophet hiding in a cave as he tries to 
distance himself from Queen Jezabel who is out to get him because he has 
humiliated and killed her prophets. Now on the run for his life, he is directed 
to Mount Horeb where he takes refuge in a cave. He wants to meet God and wishes 
this God to act powerfully against his enemies. There he discovers that his 
tactics are not God’s tactics. God’s approach is a non-violent one, symbolized 
by the mighty wind and earthquake in which he does not find God. Rather it is a 
gentle one, symbolized by the gentle breeze. Our God is so different from what 
we expect!

Deep calls to DeepA storm arose at sea and the ship was being tossed by winds 
and waves. Panic-stricken, the passengers ran helter-skelter on the deck 
begging God to save them. Amidst the confusion, little Monica stared coolly at 
the tempestuous sea. Seeing the girl so cool and composed, a passenger barked, 
“Hey kid, aren’t you afraid?” Monica replied casually, “Why worry? My daddy’s 
the captain!” Today’s readings speak of winds and waves, and of Christ, our 
Captain’s assurance. “Courage! It is I!”Francis Gonsalves in ‘Sunday Seeds for 
Daily Deeds’
In today’s gospel, we read that Jesus sent his disciples in a boat and he went 
on the mountain and was praying until three in the morning. Later, Jesus walked 
over the water and found His disciples fighting a losing battle against the 
storm. Though He was present fear engulfed them. His presence calmed the sea 
and gave them freedom from fear. The lesson in this passage is abundantly 
clear. As Matthew relates it, the story is clearly symbolic. The disciples in 
the boat represent the infant church; the wind and the waves represent the 
persecution let loose on the Church. Jesus is not with them physically; He is 
in heaven praying to the Father. However in the Church’s direst need, when all 
seems lost, her Lord comes to save her, The incident of Peter sinking and being 
saved by Jesus is probably a reference to Peter’s failure during the passion, 
and his restoration after the resurrection. In any case Peter represents the 
typical disciple, caught between faith and doubt. Jesus’ rebuke, “Man of little 
faith! Why did you doubt?” is directed to us also, who often start out 
courageously only to lose heart when faced with a crisis.
Jesus Comes … In silenceA proper understanding of the gospel story of Jesus 
walking on the sea has a lot to teach us of who Jesus is. Jesus comes to us in 
our trials and tribulations. He comes very calmly and quietly. He comes to us 
in silence. If we practice silence long enough, we may, like Elijah, sense God 
in the most surprising moments of our lives. Let me conclude with this story. 
Four monks decided to meditate silently without speaking for two weeks. By 
nightfall on the first day, the candle began to flicker and then went out. The 
first monk said, “Oh, no! The candle is out.” The second monk said, “Aren’t we 
not supposed to talk?” The third monk said, “Why must you break the silence?” 
The fourth monk laughed and said, “I’m the only one who didn’t speak.” –Mother 
Teresa says, “We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and 
restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, 
grass- grows in silence; see how the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move 
in silence…we need silence to be able to touch souls.”John Pichappilly in ‘The 
Table of the Word’
The impossible becomes possible…Mark Link tells the inspiring story of a 17 
year-old girl named Joni Eareckson, who like all teenagers her age was full of 
vitality, vigour and promise. Her favourite sport was horse riding, and in 
every completion her performance was so very impressive that her prospects for 
the future kept rising both noticeably and dramatically. One hot afternoon in 
July, Joni went for a swim in Chesapeake Bay and there tragedy struck. On one 
particular dive she sustained such a severe injury to her head that she was 
instantly knocked unconscious and rushed to the hospital for emergency 
treatment. And there the worst fears of her loved ones were confirmed. Joni 
would be a quadriplegic for the rest of her life. The months ahead were an 
absolute nightmare, with just no light at the end of the tunnel. The once 
graceful rider, who delighted crowds with her performances,

AFC FUTSAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME KICKS-OFF IN NEW DELHI

*AIFF Media Team*



*NEW DELHI:* Representatives of the Asian Football Confederations (AFC) met
the All India Football Federation (AIFF) at the Football House, New Delhi
today (August 08, 2017) on the opening day of the AFC Futsal Development
Programme - Assessment Visit to India.



The AFC was represented by Mr. Ali Targholizadeh, who is the Technical
Director of the Futsal & Beach Soccer Development Department of the AFC,
Mr. Jacob Joseph Biggs, the Project Manager of the AFC Futsal Development
Programme and Mr. Badrul Hisham Bin Kalam of the AFC Futsal Referee's
Department.



AIFF’s General Secretary Mr. Kushal Das along with Hero I-League CEO Mr.
Sunando Dhar, AIFF’s Technical Director Savio Medeira, AIFF’s Head of
Player Development Richard Hood were also in attendance at the meeting.



Speaking on the occasion, the AIFF General Secretary said, “We have trying
to develop Futsal in India for some time now. This was missing from the
Indian development programme. And I hope with the help of the AFC we should
be able to start a Futsal competition by this year in India. That is the
objective.”



Ali Targholizadeh opined, “Asia has almost 2/3rd of the world population
and India is a major and very important part of that not just
demographically but in other aspects too. Countries who might not be
traditional footballing superpowers can do well in Futsal. I’m happy with
AIFF’s initiative to develop futsal for football and futsal for futsal
which is a part of developing football overall.”



“I think it’s a new beginning for us and we are looking towards getting in
more coaches and instructors to help us develop futsal in India”, added
Savio Medeira.



The meeting took place to discuss matters on regarding developing and
creating a road map for Futsal in India. There was also a discussion on
creating an ideal platform for the spread and advent of Futsal as a popular
form of football in India. The AIFF conveyed its full commitment towards
creating a pathway for courses, competitions and match officiating across
our country that will help in development of Futsal.

DECISIONS OF THE AIFF SPECIAL COMMITTEE




*AIFF Media Team*



*NEW DELHI: *The Special Committee formed as per the directions of the All
India Football Federation’s Emergency Committee met at AIFF Football House
on August 3, 2017 to review the jurisdiction of the AIFF and State
Association and to adjudicate the status of a player in view of the dispute
between Mr. Abinash Ruidas and Kingfisher East Bengal relating to validity
or sustainability of the contract for the 2017-18 season.



The Committee reviewed the AIFF Constitution and AIFF regulations for the
Status and Transfer of Players as well as various circulars issued by FIFA
relating to the fundamentals of a contract to be entered between a Club and
a player.



It also reviewed the decision of the IFA’s Players Status Committee as the
Constitution of IFA stipulates that whichever Club is in possession of the
token of a player has the ‘legal right’ of registering the player in the
Club for the forthcoming season.



Based on the review of the above, the special Committee decided as follows:



1.The decision of the IFA dated July 28, 2017 relating to the legal rights
of the player on the basis of the token cannot be sustained and/or enforced.



2. AIFF is the authority to adjudicate the disputed subject issue in its
entirety including the “Status” of the Player and/or whether there exists
any valid and binding written contract, and whether there has been
mandatory compliance of Articles 4.3 and 5 of the AIFF regulations for the
Status and Transfer of Players.



3. As per the AIFF Constitution and AIFF regulations for the Status and
Transfer of players, the “Players Status Committee” of the AIFF is
entrusted with exclusive powers to deal with and settle the ‘dispute’ as
the status of the Player and his Contractual validity.



4. Any other or further decision of the IFA relating to or arising out of
the subject issue of Abinash Ruidas cannot be sustained/enforced.



Accordingly, the matter relating to validity of the contracts of the
players will be dealt by the AIFF Players Status Committee at a meeting to
be summoned soon.

[Goanet] GST ON CARS INSURANCE PAYMENT?

[Stephen Dias]

The Editor
TOI

Request to publish in City Mailbox

This is in regards to the report from daily newsletter appeared in Times of
India on 7th Aug 2017 on GST revision on SUV's , high end cars may rise
from 15% to 25 % I have to state my renewal of my car insurance from M/s
Bajaj Allianz Insurance Pvt Ltd is  due for renewal on 13th August 2017.
The GST charges has been fixed to total 18th% as per the insurance policy
reminder.  Now the Insurance Company has bifurcated its charges with equal
amount of 50% for the State and Central.
My question is who authorised this Insurance Co. to break up these charges?
Is there any instruction from the Government?
When the insurance Co. called me for payment I was told that the 18% GST
charges is fixed for my vehicle. If the range was between to 15 to 25% what
was the criteria estimating my vehicle to 18%  which needed to be known
earlier. We at the most may make payment for GST as per the requirement
from Goverment but the bifurcation of charges for 50% to state and central
cannot be accepted  as we not want to be a party to it.
We do not mind if there are more than one break up or bifurcations within
the total GST payment but it is for the Insurance to give justification.
The GST taxes has given us more headaches then relief.

[Goanet] Fwd: NO REASON FOR GOANS TO FEAR MOBILE TOWERS Posted by nt on August 4, 2017 in Goa News

[Stephen Dias]

Dear Arun Sinha

Your editorial telling Goans not to fear on Mobile Towers hazards was very
bad in taste. You should have ascertained the scientific information based
on international papers and then put your comments.You are a non technical
Editor in this field. You have no right to mislead people of this country
and Goa where you lived in this state for so many years.

Kindly see the information provided by an expert Prakash Munshi from Mumbai
and if required I alongwith Prof Girish Kumar a renowned electrical
professor in the electro communication field in the world with hundreds of
research papers at his credit,  do not mind presenting a lecture or Power
point presentation on the hazards of cell tower radiation if the Goa
Goverment agrees or permits.

[Goanet] A SINKING GOA NEEDS TO BE SAVED

[Aires Rodrigues]

After being MLA of Panaji for over two decades, Manohar Parrikar is still
in the dark on the problems faced by the city. Manohar Parrikar should hang
his head in shame and take a dip in the St Inez Creek.



http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/after-23-yrs-parrikar-needs-ias-officer-to-solve-panajis-woes/articleshow/59961715.cms



Instead of moving Forward Goa is currently enveloped in utter political
anarchy and administrative chaos. To attain his ulterior motives,  the
crafty and devious Town and Country Planning Minister Vijai Sardesai is
going to concertize what remains of Goa by appointing three Chief Town
Planners which is a step in the wrong direction.


We need less Government and better Governance. A very small State like Goa
does not need a Zilla Parishad. This unnecessary extra layer should be
scrapped and instead more powers should be vested with the Panchayats. And
Goa could be well governed with just 30 MLAs and a cabinet of five instead
of the current 40 MLAs and a jumbo cabinet which is only needlessly
burdening the tax payer.


Goem, Goenkar and Goenkarponn will only remain a dream, while Fot, Foting
and Fotingponn is the current government’s order of the day.
