People— No affection for Matrutva, no egalitarianism. Reminded me of me hard assed Maharashtrian pals singing the following, a rank parody of an auspicious mantra at our mind shattering parties. Of course, I was part of the same crowd, so know how to shatter a mind/s. But here giving a sense of what the shit that churns those minds.
Ghalin lotangan varkarin dungan (I bow low to you, raise my butt) Dolyani pahin bhok tujhe ((But) my eyes see your orifice/s [ergo to imply absolute uncleanness which has to be seen to be believed]. Of course interpretations vary with context. Ani, asli sthiti zali ’het. (Konk., Ani, osli ghott/ stiti zaun asa) Lets me also add: Não é para os fracos. (Not for the faint hearted) + + + The beginning of the original AUSPICIOUS mantra Ghalin lotangan vandin charan (I bow low to you, ergo prostrate [giving absolute reverence]) Dolyani pahin rup tujhe (My eyes are filled / suffused with your sight) Your friendly social analyst (a quiet artist laborer). :) —Venantius J Pinto On Sat, Aug 13, 2016 at 11:06 PM, V M <[email protected]> wrote: > http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/Small- > amounts-and-big-debts-The-swindling-of-Goa/articleshow/53690995.cms >
