My mom is from Uttara Kannada, and she had some Christian Konkani friends. She said stuff about them eating rice cooked with salt, bathing in the evening, etc. She also mentioned an incident where she was preparing curd rice from rice cooked by her friend, she put curd over it and added some salt, and it became too salty and thus unedible.
I thought these were just weird instances, but damn, the explanations behind this are disturbing.

Soon we will have Kerala files, TN files & who knows what files. Why don't we have one 'Indian files' and finish off with it? Very bored with this constant crying over history!

💯

That is why i cannot bear to go to Goa. When i see a church, i know a temple once stood there.
The biggest travesty is the skeleton of the dog Xavier kept in their church. He’s probably roasting in some Christian hell for eternity

Great respect for Shefali Vaidya..a brave Goan..my ancestors too were from Narve in Goa..thanks for bringing this out to the whole world! 🙏🏻

This is slowly but surely still happening in plain sight all across India and yet we are so uncomfortable with the truth.

It served Britain to turn a blind eye…England was a christian state

JCB Abhiyan – Jaati Chodo Bharatiya bano.

Being Goan I'm requesting shefali ma'am to raise the issue of compulsion of Konkani subject in primary schools atleast…. (Right now which is an optional language)

A book by name “The guardian of the Dawn “ by American inter religious scholar by name Richard Zimlar and he calls Goan Inquisition as the cruelest of all Christian Inquisitions. He went to Lisbon and did research.

Being a Goan i would like to say this that we the students or children should be educated with this facts at our early age. As we choose our own paths at a higher education, only few get to know about the history of our own Goan Culture and Portuguese inquisition.

I being a Goan just got enlightened to this topic today, same way there are many other Goans who do not know about this deep secret.
Again as u said, we don't want the churches of Goa to be broken down or go against the religion. But the facts should be portrayed as a history of Goa.
Thank you Shefali maam for putting up the facts. N Thank you Kushal Mehra( The Carvaka podcast) for portraying this facts to the world.

Could not control my emotions. Good articulation. Thanks

our Great Nehru did not want to use "violence" against these BASTARDS. I am wondering who is the B…d

People out they do not do not go to Goa it is a hell how my brother was murdered there he was 30 he never came home with no explanations from Goa imagine how we feel

This shefali vaidya, uttering most of the stories are fake ,
When Portuguese came to Goa, the Hindus held high the Portuguese king,

Real names of our places I can think of top of my head : Goa = Gaumantak, Pune = Punya Nagari, Ratnagiri = Ratna Nagari, Mumbai (Bombay) = Mumba Devi, Bangalore = Bengaluru (from Benda Kaluru), Mangaluru = Mangala Devi (Mandir), Kumble = Kanipura, Nazarabad = Mysuru, Islamabad = Kozhikode, Hyderabad = Bhagyanagar…….

Gullible Hindus and jains still pray in saint? Xavier church,let's move forward but do not forget and glorify Xavier

Not just goa , even Hyderabad karnataka region when under Nizam rule . Portuguese were first to enter india and last to leave india

speechless !

@ Shefali Vaidya – Court of Inquisition was abolished by the Portuguese Constitution of 1838 and not 'Due to pressure by the British". I understand the Portuguese may have done a lot of things, but the British entire Destroyed India, and not just India, many other Countries as well! So we shouldn't forget about that as well!

1:03:05 You could 'Imagine' hearing voices, hearing cries?? – You didn't really hear them for sure??

@Shefali Vaidya – Under your topic "The Terror and the Torture" -Yiu mentioned a point "That Proof needed to be provided", as atleast it's not like today's time where communities are assault without any lack of proof, but merely upon one's assumptions! – What have you got to say about that??

So what's your problem if people put Salt in their Rice?? What's the Big Deal?? Is it something Un-Holy??

Wat good the Portuguese rule did was it made Goans unite else the community from which(I sud not be saying this) this lady belongs wud have totally harasses the common people of Goa. Even today this lady's community feels tey own Goa.. So don't lecture us on our history.. We are proud of our legacy…

it's ironic how yourl all talk about foreign inquisition but wanna go abroad to work and study

I'm a goan and proud of our history…. people talking bad about our beautiful goa are the same people who come and visit it. thanks a lot for pumping money into tourism

What a very sad yet truly wonderful presentation by Shefali Vaidya – very important to learn history lessons from our past. Thank you, Carvaka, for this!

Hope Kushal Mehera will give money to built Museum via his youtube earnings !

Goans should come out of their colonial hangover and they can start doing that by first renaming each and every portuguese sounding place into Konkani.
E.g., Panjim -> Panaji.
Quepem -> Kepe.
Sanquelim -> Sankhali.
Bardez -> Baradesh.
Mapusa -> Mhapsa.
to name a few…

What a story. Thanks for this both of you 💗

This is the first time I enjoyed listening to Shefali Ji.

It was the Hindu king who invited the Portuguese to overthrow the Muslims (Bijapur king) in Goa? What is the point of blaming the Christians now?

Can anybody tell me the name of book she has written?

very very knowledgable

Great history which needs to be known by all. Goa inquisition is now well documented now..
Long back I read a good book "A daughter's story'" by Mario Kauto".
Also the Goan christian still carry on Hindu tradition.
Pope must regret and ask for forgiveness.

Shefali ji Father francsi is not protugues even in portugues chrsitian faced big problem pls dont comment on christian fatehr francis xavier u r really joining false narative yes father came to propogate chrsitinity but he failed and returned is real story mentioned arya samaj who defeated father francis xavier also many chatolic chrsitians are freedom figheter in goa

Our ancestors left everything in Goa only they kept religion, God's, our culture took their lives in hand we came to coastal region of Karnataka that gives shelter, land to build temples .We paid gratitude to Rani ChennaBhairadevi,Rani Abbakka, Sonda Nayaks🙏🙏🙏

I remember going with my friends to Goa. I asked everyone what they knew about the things that happened and none knew.

Very true, there should be Goa files too. Been a Goan I know how this is true and my ancestors have also suffered and lost their home and belonging and had to hide and live in the forests in interiors of Goa 4-5 centuries ago.

Pope is apologizing to those who had already converted to Christianity and lost their culture. In case of Goa, majority is still Hindu so apologizing to Hindus can destroy Christian conversation mission in India.

We should tell they occupied Goa, and terrorized

Why is this called Goa files….when all you have this woman just looking for glory. Full of hatred!!!

Yes…Goa is not Bihar. Why don't you go live in Bihar….lots of temples for you!!

This B! Is full of HATED for the Christian Goans!!!
She is looking for glory.

Unfortunately because of our Glorious Liberation we have this hatred.

Both are communalists!!! He is uninformed. Only got one point of view…from a hater!!

Why not talk about Sati….the Portuguese got rid of it.
