IS INDIA REALLY A SECULAR COUNTRY?

 

This  is regarding the demolition of the Little Flower Church in Delhi by the demonic type of people of this planet who are the worst enemies of India and whose only motto in life is to see India is splitted into innumerable pieces.  With this demolition can we the minority Christian community trust any more the India’s ruling political party the BJP to give a feeling of meting out justice to the Christians in particular and minorities in general?  I feel ashamed to be a citizen of this  communal country which otherwise is so great, so long and broad and having produced great intellectuals and sages who have not only dazzled the world by their sheer intelligence and excellent oratory in support of India’s stand on Secularism and yet  with the silent nod of the higher ups trouble the minorities.

 

 

For example, when Swami Vivekananda went to America representing India and Hinduism and addressing the  Parliament of the World Religions attended by  7000 highly sophisticated and brainy attendees at Chicago in 1893, said he “I come from the country that build Temples, Masjids and Churches” proving the existence of secularism in India and also co-existece among all the religious communities”. While Dr. Francisco Luis Gomes a Portuguese Parliamentarian elected from the South Goa Constituency to represent and to protect the interest of Goans in Goa, stopping over in Europe while attending the Portuguese Parliamentary session, addressed to  those highly intelligent Europeans detaiing our grieances. This was much before any Ghandis and Nehrus could be born and for that matter any Indian from Bharati land could do as our Dr. Gomes did. Dr. Gomes addressing to the Europeans said – “I come from the land that produced the great Epics Ramayana and Mahabaratha and produced the game of Chess.”.  Going a bit further added Dr. Gomes by saying “I have come here in Europe not only to ask freedom for my land Goa but also to demand full freedom to my country which is suffering too much under the colonialism of  Europe. In his statement Swami Vivekananda praised Indian secularism while the other my Goan brother, Dr. Francisco Luis Gomes praised India and Indians as a whole without naming any  particular community. 

 

 

Now after knowing the Christian Church in Delhi is demolished, I ask this question, are we worthy of  the compliments by Swami and by the Doctor? Are we really secular or still communal ?  When the case of the construction of this Church is still lying in the court, why those fanatics took law into their own hands to demolish it?       

Good that it  was Church only  but  if  it was a Masjid, I am sure situation will go the Babri Masjid way. As a Chief Minister could not Kejriwal do something  to avoid this situation? What guts he has to ask us to vote for AAP in Goa? It looks BJP and AAP are same, both are communal.  I think Goencho  Avaaz is the only  solution for us because what I observed in this party is this that there is not a single mmber of dual character like Dr. Jaxkeyl and Mr. Hyde and it is headed by the most upright man ex-Captain in the indiian Navy,  Capt. Viriato Fernandes.

COMING ELECTION WILL BE FIERCELY CONTESTED,

 

According to my assessment, the coming  election for the Goa State     Legislative  Assembly will be fought very fiercely because almost every MLA will do everything to retain his seat by doing anything within his capacity even by committing worst of crimes because when one tastes the power  he does not leave it easily. Our current MLA’s have already tasted the power by  way of different means either legally or illegally but even then that they lacked advanced social contacts is certainly correct. Also they have tasted the power which they used for amassing  illicit wealth and also illicit sex that evaded them earlier because they are so “Burro” that  at least some of them undergone their internship in sex with the real Donkeys only.   

During their earlier part many of them were nowhere in the midst of society. Having tasted the power and show of MLA and Ministership in the current term they are aware of the importance of being in the Legislative Assembly which gives them full illegal authority to loot and even to kill anybody who comes on their way and yet this misdeed will go untraced and untracked as that of Fr. Bismarque inspite of the fact that we are having fully equipped with all the facilities the department to trace and track such calamities.  Our Security personnel are fit to catch “easy to catch” wrong doers like those who rob because they are hungry.  For such robbers we don’t call robbers but instead we call  those who are responsible to catch the hungry as double robbers.  It is wrong on the part of those who arrest them and also those who sentence them instead of owning their responsibilities by being party to the society we all belong including the hungry robbers.  We have to own the resonsibilties of thier robberies bccause we failed in our mission to provide them suitable job avenues.


In this coming election Money will flow like water from any “Donsou” river water but they will tell it is very sweet and spiritual in nature and voters will believe these lies like idiots and idiots only will vote for them. Further I forecast that some of the contestants will even  kidnap their opponents and even their family members especially the ladies and children demanding the ransom in crores of rupees because they are aware that only the “crorepotis” can afford to contest the elections. There will be besides, total chaos and disorder in Goa, there will be total law and order breakdown situation and law enforcing machinery  will be shying away from performing their responsibilities conscientiously because they will be in a dilemmatic situation to chose between the good and the bad because when the results of the election are out who will be the superior and inferior of whom. 


Almost all the contestants in the forthcoming election will be hard core corrupt and once they are elected there will  be nothing good in Goa but all round de facto corruption leading to the running of parallel economy.  Voters will find it extremely difficult to get any single candidate good.  For this reason I have decided like that ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes roaming in the ancient city of Athens with a lighted Lantern in his hand during the day time in search of good  person so too myself do the similar exercise  in search of good candidate.

NEW SONG BY PLGA ON HER MOTHER'S DEATH.


   The beauty of the song is based not only  on its lyrics but also on the way it is rendered.  When one sings a song with his/her beautiful voice the degree of its beauty goes up giving very good satisfaction to the listeners. Not only this even the singers way of singing and modulating of his face is also very much counted.  From the time of the staging of the first Tiatro over 150 years ago, the first known song on 
the dead person,  namely the late Minguel Rod was rendered by the late legendary Young Menezes who was otherwise a jet speed singer known in the history of Konkani songs the singer of longest jet-speed song comprising 500 words.  While singing this song Young Menezes was so exhausted that at one particular point he was holding his own hand to his stomach as a support because due to total exhaustion he was unable to stand erect and sing that song.  At moment it ;looked he was collapsing on the Stage In the history of such songs, this song rendered by Young Menezes will remain as the best, commented  yet another great Tiatrist/singerAlexinho de Candolim the next day, Young Menezes rendered this song in the Tiatro held at the Mattou erected next to the house of Alexinho de Candolim.of whose calibre we are yet to see another like him. As a matter of fact Minguel Rod when he died in 1954 this was the most sorrowful song that was rendered with the exrremely sorrowful Tune of Motetic type.  That this song on Minguel Rod was so powerfully sorrowful that the audience came to know the moment the musicians started to play the introductory music when the singer the late Young Menees who on the musical steps based on the music played by the musical troupe t headed by that great Maestro Violonist Alex.

 

                     Yesterday on Tube I listened to a beautiful sorrowful  song by  the highly political singer  Olga on her  recently expired mother at GMC where as per this song the hospital authorities mishandled her case that it looks  led to her death. Normally Olga is known to sing political songs with her fiery words criticising the ill deeds of the  government but in this particular song on her mother she is totally changed. Olga even though she pinches here and there some` doctors and HM for not being serious and playing with the life of the patients.

                        In this song Olga  indicates how smart she is even  in singing such sorrowful songs with her serene and touchy  voice and touchy way of singing with a slow pace thereby  winning the hearts of the listeners.     It is worth listening and nobody should miss this song she rendered with her eyes all wet.

                          My heartfelt condolences  to   you Olga Bai.
