Sugandh Issue 2017 28 April 2017 Sugandh l MCC Qatar Newsletter 3 28 April 2017 MESSAGE I am happy to note that Mangalore Cricket Club (MCC) is celebrating its Silver Jubilee on 28th April 2017 with a Mega Konkani Cultural event Titled “Gulf Baila Naach” on this occasion you are bringing out a souvenir titled “Sugandh 1992-2017” to commemorate the event. Let me offer my congratulations and good wishes for the success of the Silver Jubilee celebrations. I still remember that a few years ago when I visited Doha, Qatar, MCC was good enough to organize a reception and Eucharistic celebrations. MCC will definitely help its members who are far away from their home town and families to remain together, help and support each other and share joys & sorrows with each other. I request MCC members be always to be helpful to each other as you are far from your home town. You need the bond of friendship and support. Wishing you all the best. With kind regards, Yours sincerely, Archbishop Bernard Moras 4 Sugandh l MCC Qatar Newsletter 28 April 2017 Sugandh l MCC Qatar Newsletter 5 28 April 2017 ¸ÀAzÉÃ±ï ¥ÀAaéÃ¸ï ªÀgÁìA D¢A zÉÆúÁ PÀvÁgÁAvï ªÁªÀÅgÁÑ÷å PÉÆAPÀuï PÀgÁªÀ¼ÉZÁå ªÀÄAUÀÄîgïUÁgÁA¤ GAZÁè÷å zsÉåÃAiÀiÁA §gÁ§gï ¸ÁÜ¥Éè¯ÉA ¸ÀAWÀl£ï ‘ªÀiÁåAUÀ¯ÉÆÃgï QæPÉmï PÀè¨ï’ Deï ªÀíqï ¸ÀA¸ÉÆÜ eÁªïß ªÁqÉÆ£ï AiÉÄêïß D¥Áè÷å ¸ÁxÀðPï ¥ÀAaéÃ¸ï ªÀgÁìAZÉÆ ‘gÀÄ¥ÉÇåÃvÀìªï’ DZÀ¸ÀÄðAZÁå ºÀÄA¨Áægï D¸Á vÉA ¥À¼ÉAªïÌ ¨ÉÆêï zÁzsÉƸÁÌAiÀiï ¨ÉÆUÁÛ. ¥À²ÑªÀiï PÉÆAPÀuï PÀgÁªÀ¼ÉZÉÆ ¯ÉÆÃPï, vÁAvÀÄA¬Ä PÉÆAQÚ Qæ¸ÁÛAªï ¯ÉÆÃPï, ¸ÀA¸ÁgÁZÁå ZÁgÁA¬Ä PÉÆ£Áê÷åA¤ «¸ÁÛ¯Áð vÀjÃ, D¦è D¹ävÁAiÀiï, ¸ÀA¸ÀÌöÈw D¤ D¥Éè¥Àuï «¸ÀÄæAPï £Á.

Being the first socio-cultural association of Mangaloreans in Qatar, it really makes us feel proud and happy on this celebratory occasion. Completing 25 successful and fruitful years is certainly a milestone in the history of an organisation. Our joy is doubled and we feel proud to know that Mangaloreans working and residing in Qatar have played a pivotal role in building MCC step by step at a time when it was difficult for people to come together, form associations and hold programmes. MCC gave a platform for Mangaloreans to come together under one roof and bond even though they were far from their families and loved ones and felt alienated. It is indeed a matter of tremendous satisfaction to know that in these 25 years MCC grew from strength to strength and has emerged as the most vibrant socio-cultural club and has become the torchbearer of Mangaloreans in Qatar. Building an organisation from the scratch and that too in a foreign land where individuals and families are scattered in far-off places, is not an easy task. It is the farsightedness, dedication, determination, hard work and steadfast commitment of the founding members of MCC that has made MCC a formidable organisation with a membership of over 500 families. Continuing the zealous efforts of the founders and taking the organisation to greater heights is certainly a challenge which is possible only when the leader and his entire team works in tandem to achieve the desired goal. MCC was fortunate to have dynamic leaders and like-minded members who continued in the footsteps of its founders. It goes to the credit of the successive presidents and office-bearers of MCC that they took the mantle of leadership and led the organisation through their visionary approach. Kudos to MCC which is now celebrating its silver jubilee with pomp and splendour. On this grand occasion I congratulate MCC Qatar and all those who worked hard to make MCC a formidable force to reckon with in Qatar. Through its charitable acts of caring, sharing, bonding and reaching out to the needy MCC has won over the hearts and minds of Mangaloreans in Qatar. I am confident that MCC would continue to strive to excel in its chosen activities in the years to come and become a role model for others to follow. Long live MCC Qatar! Sugandh l MCC Qatar Newsletter 9 28 April 2017 Dear Friends, Greetings and best wishes to all in the name of our God Almighty I am happy to learn that Mangalore Cricket Club is completing Twenty Five years here in Doha-Qatar. I Congratulate and wish the President, the Executive Board, Advisory Board all the happiness and joy for in these twenty five years putting all their efforts and with all the good works to unite the Mangaloreans here in Doha under the banner of Mangalore Cricket Club. Through different Mega events and socio-cultural activities MCC has become a Home for all the Mangaloreans residing here and given opportunity to a great number children, youth and grown up of the community to bring out the God given talents in an artistic way with great perfection. I also wish all the goodness to the participants of Gulf Baila Naach. I too appreciate the help that MCC has given to the poor for their education, for in sickness and to build houses for the poor families. I pray Almighty God’s Blessings on all of you that you continue to do the good works to the Mangalorean community and at large to the whole humanity. Rev. Fr. Anand George Castelino OFM Cap Konkani Speaking Community Our Lady of the Rosary Church Doha-Qatar 10 Sugandh l MCC Qatar Newsletter 28 April 2017 Dear MCC President and Executive Committee members, First & foremost, I would like to congratulate you & your committee members and MCC Club members on achieving this great milestone that too in this part of the region with all the hardship of running a social Organization, sacrificing valuable family & business time. Owing to my prior commitments, I thought I would miss the grand celebrations you have put up as part of your Silver Jubilee celebrations of your club. However, my past association with your club and some of the members, I am compelled to attend and and be a part of this historical event of first inter-Gulf Baila Naach contest. I feel happy that you are doing a great job sharing your talents, resources, and providing much needed service in preserving our culture and Konkani language using the medium of entertainment. Organising an international event requires a lot of time, efforts and resources. You have done for the second time now after the Soad 3 episode. Brave hearts. I sincerely wish you all the very best for this great event and my prayers are with you all.

Whoever has won will need our prayers for guidance as our new president assumes office in January. This has been a very difficult election cycle with much acrimony and debasement. Hopefully our society will rise above this and will move forward now in a spirit of reconciliation and collaborative effort. We need to pray that all our civic leaders, president, senators and representatives, will all work together not for the good of their particular party, but for the good of our nation. Very shortly we will begin the season of Advent, the beginning of a new Church year. With this Advent we pray for a renewed spirit of faith and openness to the working of the Holy Spirit in our lives and in our world.

  • The Religious Lifeworlds of Canada's Goan and Anglo-Indian Communities
    Brown Baby Jesus: The Religious Lifeworlds of Canada’s Goan and Anglo-Indian Communities Kathryn Carrière Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the PhD degree in Religion and Classics Religion and Classics Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Kathryn Carrière, Ottawa, Canada, 2011 I dedicate this thesis to my husband Reg and our son Gabriel who, of all souls on this Earth, are most dear to me. And, thank you to my Mum and Dad, for teaching me that faith and love come first and foremost. Abstract Employing the concepts of lifeworld (Lebenswelt) and system as primarily discussed by Edmund Husserl and Jürgen Habermas, this dissertation argues that the lifeworlds of Anglo- Indian and Goan Catholics in the Greater Toronto Area have permitted members of these communities to relatively easily understand, interact with and manoeuvre through Canada’s democratic, individualistic and market-driven system. Suggesting that the Catholic faith serves as a multi-dimensional primary lens for Canadian Goan and Anglo-Indians, this sociological ethnography explores how religion has and continues affect their identity as diasporic post- colonial communities. Modifying key elements of traditional Indian culture to reflect their Catholic beliefs, these migrants consider their faith to be the very backdrop upon which their life experiences render meaningful. Through systematic qualitative case studies, I uncover how these individuals have successfully maintained a sense of security and ethnic pride amidst the myriad cultures and religions found in Canada’s multicultural society. Oscillating between the fuzzy boundaries of the Indian traditional and North American liberal worlds, Anglo-Indians and Goans attribute their achievements to their open-minded Westernized upbringing, their traditional Indian roots and their Catholic-centred principles effectively making them, in their opinions, admirable models of accommodation to Canada’s system.

This article gives a basic introduction to remote sensing and its recent advancements and its applications. Key Words: Remote Sensing, Electromagnetic Spectrum, Digital Image Processing, Image Enhancement, GPS, GIS, ERDAS. Introduction Remote sensing is the science of acquiring information about the earth’s surface without actually being in contact with it. This is done by sensing and recording reflected or emitted energy and processing, analyzing and applying that information. Exploration of earth’s natural resources is vital for the socio-economic development of any country. The various studies carried out in India and elsewhere in the world proves beyond doubt that remote sensing is a powerful tool for mapping inventorying, monitoring and managing of natural resources due to the inherent advantages of synoptic viewing, repetitive imaging, capability to study inaccessible areas, relatively at low cost and real time/near real time availability of data.

Thus it becomes the living memory of the nation. Thus it preserves and kindles within itself the flame of her spent history in a [orm which is safe from deformation and slander. In this way literature together with language protects the soul of the nation .. But woe to that nation whose literature is disturbed by tl1e intervention of power. Because tl1at is noJ just a violation against 'freedom of print', it is the closing down of the heart of the nation, a slashing to pieces ol its memory. The nation ceases to be mindful of itseU~ it is deprived of its spiritual unity, and despite a supposedly common language, compatriots suddenly cease to understand one another.
