      @@FrancisFernandes-mv3xu Chatrapathi Shivaji maharaj lives in heart of every hindu for he stood against oppression and hindus were oppressed by invaders in this nation. His contribution to the survival of Hindu civilisation from foreign invasion cannot be doubted .Stop making everything a RSS propaganda. Shivaji was
      always known as Hindu hydray samrat and it isn’t an RSS slogan but it is the truth as he lives in our heart . And nobody can take that away from Us .

    As a Konkani Saraswat Brahman whose ancestors fled from Goa because of the Portuguese persecution, I almost cried watching Sawani ji speak. The situation was very similar to what Kashmiri Hindus faced but here the colonizers were Christian zealots. I am a proud Hindu not because of my achievements or some false sense of superiority but because of the great sacrifices of my Hindu ancestors. They held on to their faith, their gods, and their Dharma even in such dire situations. I can only imagine the kind of courage and commitment that they carried in their hearts to be able to let go of everything but not their Dharma.

But the mystery is after all the conversions that have taken place we are still Hindus and going strong. Just imagine how much of physical violence and torture must have been undergone by each of them to stay as Hindus.

      The more appalling thing is that most of the Hindus who visit Goa for recreational purpose, go to visit old churches as ancient architectures. They don't know the history behind those churches. And even guides too either don't know or don't reveal the history. When I visited Goa, I refused,to the ashtonishment of our guide, to join the swarms of people entering the churches. I told him the history in brief and to my surprise by his response and jestures, I could realise that he knew it.

The Portguese and their bigoted practices were even detested by the French English and other European traders at that time.

    -will sweetman's publication on 'The Dravidian Idea in Missionary Accounts of South Indian Religion'
    -and to understand how missionaries were involved in slave trading of so called lower caste you can read publication from portugese scholar 'Manumission of Slaves in Goa During 1682 to 1760 as Found in Codex 860' by Teotonio R. Desouza.
    Reminder india wasn't the only land where this has happened. Every non-white and non-christian ruler land which was colonized or inquisitioned faced the same. Native american tribe, Native Canadian tribes, central and south africa, aboriginals of australia, latin america.
    It wasn't until the treaty of yandabo (1826) that the christian missionaries didn't start the conversion in what they termed 'North-East India'. Read about heraka movement, seng khasi movement etc.
    Its only because of two Abhramanical faiths that this land has endured so much.

    Pranam to all the Goan fraternity who had to endure such pain.

      This is a rather strange assumption that you thought of Goa as a "Western concept" and that you are being able to ascribe Sanatana Dharma to it only after the advent of social media. It is the most nonsensical admission that I have heard in recent times.
      Either your history teachers must have been horrendously ignorant or the choice of books that you must have been reading must have been really poor.

      ​​@@kiranbahety8438goa was actually a Buddhist state for almost 2000yrs it was the frist religion which came to goa an the native goan accepted it. since in the beginning natives never had any religion. The next religion to enter goa was jainism in was in practice for almost a 1000yrs. Then in 52AD Christianity came to goa before it reached Europe or America although it had very few followers at that time. Then in around 1198 there was a genocide in goa whereby most of the Buddhist an jains were either killed or forced to abandon their faith an some took shelter in the neighboring kingdoms, Christianity was saved from this genocide because they never had any places of worship because the concept of church was not there at that time. An that's how present day Hinduism came to goa. Most of the temples which are before 13th century are actually either Buddhist or jains places of worship which were converted into temples. An at that time of history there were no muguls, Portuguese or British in India or goa.

Goa is not only about beaches and clubs but it has a rich cultural heritage. I think it’s high time that all the names of places in Goa be changed to it’s original name. People promoting Portuguese culture as something exotic must be stopped. As a lot of localites have suffered due to this inquisition. Also, our school names must not be kept on the name of these so called Saints because they were really not Saints. Killing innocent people for selfish reasons is not a kind of behavior any Saint would have.

    If I may add , Sati was not dominant any time in India.
    Take Kunti of Mahabharata fame.
    If Sati was prevalent , even she should have been pushed to Sati
    Sati was an option which allowed the wife to enter Sati ONLY AND ONLY if her family responsibilities were over , and then too she had to go to the guru who would say yes or no.
    ( A very important saint [Shri Vasaraja teertha] in our Kannada tradition was born only when the guru said NO to the wife and the guru was powerful enough to bring the dead husband back to life).
    Sati would be brought into a forceful practice only to prevent the widows from being sold to prostitution.
    Hence , evidences of Sati are more dominant in North India in comparison to South India due to rampant attacks there

      Agree but madri committed sati didn't she?but I agree it was the choice of the woman and her family and not a compulsion... Another example is Mata Ahilyabai holkar.. She wanted to commit sati but her father in law Malharrao holkar stopped her. Later we all know what pious deeds she did and ruled Indore successfully for several years

      Sati pratha never prevailed in India before the cruel invaders who captured all kanya Gurukuls and village ladies were abducted forcibly and gang raped as Maleganimat or spoils of war. Sold these ladies in Meena Bazaars for prostitution work. All red light areas were created by Mughals and Christians. All badwords had come from Abrahamic religions. There is no respect for women and are considered as soul less property or material objects that can be sold in market. This practices still goes on secretly in Democracy and openly in Muslim countries. Afganistan videos are available to see live video of selling girls in Burkhas in the market.
