Institute of Konkani, St. Aloysius College (Autonomous) Inauguration of Digitalisation - Entire works of Late A.T. Lobo's literature.

December 19, 2020 was a milestone at The Institute of Konkani, St. Aloysius College (Autonomous), Mangaluru, which will go down in

Konkani history.

The President of Karnataka Konkani Sahitya Akademi, Dr K. Jagadish Pai

53 Veez Konkani

inaugurated the long awaited project by scanning a page of A.T. Lobo's famous Konkani Novel `Vell Ghedi’ This memorable programme commenced with a documentary on life and literature of A T Lobo; Dr Edward Nazareth presented an analysis of A T Lobo’s novel; John M. Permannur presented an analysis of A

T Lobo’s dramas and Melwyn Rodrigues presented an analysis of A T Lobo’s Poetry. Late A.T. Lobo’s niece . Mrs Celine sequeira spoke on ATL’s life. Alice Lobo, president of A.T. Lobo foundation was present on the dias and spoke on the many awards he was

54 Veez Konkani

honoured with.

Welcoming the gathering, in his inaugural address, the President of the programme Dr(Fr.) Melwyn Pinto,SJ Rector of St.Aloysius College said that even after the demise of Shri A T Lobo, the great konkani writer we could still

feel his presence in our midst; he said that the period during which such a prolific writer as Shri AT Lobo wrote, can be considered the golden age of kKonkani writing in spite of all the trials and difficulties faced during those transforming days. Socially and culturally seen as a very vibrant and

55 Veez Konkani

productive period for our regional Konkani literature.

Gurudatt Baliga, Director, Vishwa Konkani Kendra, Shakthinagar, gave an enlightening talk on digitalization of old books, he stressed that St Aloysius College is the one great factor, as a home for konkani and it's 42 groups of diverse user speakers of Konkani from different communties.

"This great institution has worked tirelessly for the development of Konkani as a language and culture for more than a 100 years . Therefore it’s a matter of great satisfaction and joy that such an institution should take up the work of digitalization of the works of Shri A T Lobo. This type of digitalization of the regional works of Shri A T Lobo will now be accessible to people internationally." Further, he reiterated that the process of digitization was a multifold one, including scanning and converting the text into OCR, this then can be

translated , transliterated, into any number of languages. Besides, the font format can also be changed. In future this venture can be used with the help of artificial intelligence to generate 6 th volume from the existing 5 volumes of ATL's famous novel “ Vell Gheddi”. We wish to assure you at St. Aloysius College that Vishwa Konkani Kendra is ever willing to extend a keen and heartfelt support to all the literary endeavours of the konkani institute.

Rector, Fr. Melwin Pinto, concurred with Shri Gurudatt Baliga and Shri K Jagadish Pai and said that this digitalization of Shri A T Lobo's works would help bring out his books from dusty shelves and cupboards into a virtual world available to all. One major reason why people do not elicit interest in books is that their fragile condition after being kept in library shelves for years. Digitalization will encourage readers to access works of literature from their own locales.

Therefore we need to work hard to facilitate the transition of books in their physical state to a virtual one.

Rev Fr. Praveen Martis SJ, Principal noted that the Konkani institute, which is 41 years old now, was begun to commemorate 100 years of services of St. Aloysius Institutions. He said that

56 Veez Konkani

the Konkani Institute has been working hard over these years for the social cultural and linguistic development of Konkani in this region.

In this direction the institute has for the past 40 years been publishing or bringing out Bi-annual editions of a research oriented journal called "Amar Konkani" the Institute has always accorded great importance to research, apart from the recent efforts to digitise old books in the light of the work going on to get recognition of St. Aloysius Institution as deemed university, the contribution of the Konkani Institute towards the growth of the language and research is now parallel to the work done in various departments of this historical college of Mangaluru.

Mrs Alice Lobo, president of A.T. Lobo foundation was present on the dias.

At the beginning of the programme Dr (Fr) Melwyn Pinto welcomed the gathering. In his welcome speech he said that despite of the demise of Shri A T Lobo a great konkani writer we could still feel his presence in our midst in his literature. The period during which such great writer as late AT Lobo wrote can be considered as the golden age of Konkani writing inspite of all the trials and difficluties faced during those changing days.

Joachim Pinto, the program coordinator proposed vote of thanks.

Mr Raoul Samuel Noronha, first year student of SAC compered the programme. A documentary on life and literarture was showed at the beginning of the praogramme. In that Dr Edward Nazareth presented an analysis of A T Lobo’s novel, Mr John M. Permannur presented an analysis of A T Lobo’s dramas and Mr Melwyn Rodrigues presented an analysis of A T Lobo’s Poetry. Late A.T. Lobo’s niece Mrs Celine sequeira spoke on ATL’s life and Mrs Alice Lobo spoke on his rewards.

Brief look at late A.T. Lobo: Late Apollo Thomas Lobo, popularly known by his pen name "A T Lobo" is one among the so-called 'Pancha Pandavas' of Konkani literature. This year 2020, is the centenary year of his birth.

Brief look at Institute of Konkani: One of the prestigious institutions of SAC, the 'Konkani Institute' , stands out for its unique history and the track record it has registered in the development of Konkani language and literature, an Indo-Aryan language spoken by over 5 million

57 Veez Konkani

people in World over and written in five different scripts namely, Roman, Devanagari, Kannada, Perso-Arabic and Malayalam. Having and nurturing the Konkani Institute is a feather in the cap for this great College (now autonomous), the seeds of this were sown by Fr.Anjelo Savario Maffei SJ way back in 1878 when the first batch of Jesuits landed in Mangalore and started the St. Aloysius College in 1880.

Rev Fr.Maffei SJ, was no linguist in this local dialect, being Italian even English language was alien to him. Perhaps, he did not consider learning to read and write English as a greater challenge, but he took up the study of the language of the locals here, very seriously, that language was Konkani!

Within a short span of time Fr. Maffei not only learnt to speak Konkani but in 1882 he prepared a Konkani grammar handbook and got it printed too.

Further he prepared a lexicon Konkani - English, English - Konkani. So valuable was this work that the erstwhile Government Madras Presidency got it printed at its own cost and in the year 1892, the revised edition of Konkani grammar was printed and published by the Codialbail Press in Mangalore.

Eventually, Fr. Maffei became the

Rector and Principal of St. Aloysius College and ensured the love of Konkani was ever burning bright - this paved the way for this Konkani Institute at SAC. In the Centenary Year of the College, 1980, a unique gift was given to the Konkanis of Mangalore – The Konkani Institute of St. Aloysius College, thus giving a new lease of life to Konkani.

Rev Fr. Herbert Noronha SJ was the first Director of the Institute. As the first step towards the propagation, development and preservation of the language an exclusive Konkani library was established which has now grown to a strength of nine thousand books plus one thousand bound volumes of various Konkani periodicals.

The proud possession of the Library is a handwritten copy of 'Krista Purana' of Fr. Thomas Stevens written in the year 1614. “Amar Konkani” a bi-annual Konkani research journal was started in the year 1981 under the editorship of (late) VJP Saldanha (Khadaap). The journal has published 57 issues to date in two prominent scripts of Konkani, Kannada and Devanagari. Presently Konkani litterateur Edwin JF DSouza, who is also the Executive Director of the Konkani Institute, is the editor.

Rev.Fr. Joseph Rodrigues, SJ is the Patron of the Institute with Rev. Fr.

58 Veez Konkani

Swebert D’Silva, SJ as the Director.

Post Graduate Diploma Studies in Konkani: What started off as a oneyear, four-module diploma course in study of Konkani language, literature and culture culminated within a span of three years, into a full fledged, nine subject two-year Post Graduate Diploma Course which is thrown open to all Konkani enthusiasts, who have completed their Pre-University studies, in India and overseas by nature of it being a ‘distant education’ (postal-correspondence) course. This was in the year 1997. Till now over 800 students have obtained the Diploma, the first convocation being held on 2 September 2000.

NEW

YEAR

2021 - Need of the

times

'4th King' - Ivan Saldanha-Shet.

65 Veez Konkani

a

Christmas 2020, is firmly overshadowed by the Corona Pandemic and it's harsh consequences, in fact the fear is again rising with the possibilities of a new and more dangerous strain of the virus. All strata of society on all continents of the world, are plagued by all kinds of trouble and pain with the future very confused.

Matters for many are painful and bleak, seen and unseen, all in power are confusing / corrupting matters and it is despair all around. Ordinary people have lost faith and recourse to God in different ways according to their inspirations and will, in a very positive manner. Apart from world powers, religious leaders of all categories, instead of facing facts and reaching out in a more concrete/rational manner to havenots and suffering; are all plans for rituals, celebrations and mean enjoyment, but truth, empathy and

justice have taken a back seat. The Birth of JESUS CHRIST over 2000 years ago brought hope and promise to humankind according to the Christian scriptures. NEW YEAR 2021, is sure to pose a challenge and the needs are set to be a maze of hazy action, deeper consideration and better direction and inspiration are essential right from the start.

The Fourth King Artaban : Yes, like the three Kings from the East who came to adore the Divine Babe, it is nice to adore and give. But, then have you heard and understood the 'Fourth King'?

Maybe he holds some answers? In the mountains of ancient Persia, lived Artaban, whose study of the planets and the stars led him to predict the birth of the King of Kings. He sold his house and every possession and purchased lustrous pearls as pure as the peak of a snow mountain at twilight, flawless rubies redder than a ray of sunrise and many precious gifts — which he intended to carry as tribute to the King. He then set out for Jerusalem where he had arranged to meet up

66 Veez Konkani

with three other wise men, or Magi, to find the newborn.

It seems like that fourth king Artaban, lost the star and did not reach the hallowed spot in Bethlehem along with the tree kings is now in 2020 and onward more relevant and noteworthy. Legend says more than three Kings started out, guided by the star. The Kings steadily followed the star and three are said to have reached the Divine Babe for the 'Epiphany' in Bethlehem. But, a fourth King did not reach in time - why what was his significant fault and when did he manage to reach?

An established legend, as stated by scholars of wider versions of scripture says the 4th King, like the good samaritan in the Bible, was at

heart a very considerate and conscious person, he lost sight of his purpose due to his sense of righteousness and justice and failed to follow the star with his wise companions, he stopped quite early in the expedition to help some sick person, aged people, suffering fallen folk of all kinds....and taried with them until he could ensure a relief and betterment of the situation. And just as we see today the aware and conscious human who has concern and justice at heart is side tracked and can find little or no resources to support his aims, is lost and falls on the roads less travelled. Read on...find out what happened to him....may be not different from what is happening to ordinary 'people of good will' everywhere today....yet, as per belief and spiritual teachings of all kinds they can hopefully expect solace and joy at the designated time.

Modern commercialism, consumerism and morality has far removed 'Christmas' and it's focus for the good of humankind. With no positive recourse, the marginalised, suffering and

67 Veez Konkani

deprived are in deep unrelieved pain and suffering; while the powerful, lacking integrity in many spheres of life, are richly feasting and celebrating. Few of 'Good Will' strive in the futility of welfare of the poor and marginalised. Prayer and ritual is largely on the lips and and gestures and very rarely in mind, action and heart. Reflecting on the 'FOURTH KING' Artaban , and what he faced and experienced perhaps may give humans a better direction and path to bring peace, joy and happiness in abundance for more needy people. God does not always do the needful he inspires and equips people living on earth to achieve good and goodwill largely.

person who was deeply caring and concerned for weak and suffering people whothout discrimination of any kind. This King too carried very valuable gifts of the rarest pearls for the Divine Babe of Bethlehem. On the road with his fellow kings whose gaze never moved from their desire, the fourth king's soft heart and deep concern, took him out of his way to relieve sufferings of people and he did not fail to use the pearls and resources he had to help and support the people he encountered, in full measure to the higher things went all out to remove the suffering and injustice people he met faced in the best ways he could.

His progress was at a snail's pace and he took a long long time to reach the goal and lost sight of the star he wanted to pursue.

The 4th King - 33 years later :

It is said that the 'Fourth King' was a largehearted, generous, selfless

YES, he managed to reach Jerusalem 33 years later, weak, and worn, unrecognizable as a KING at an advanced age of 70 plus years, and asked for JESUS the CHRIST. All around him was silence and they pointed to an unrecognisable dirty man bathed in blood with deep

68 Veez Konkani

bleeding wounds, carrying a heavy cross like a criminal. It was a thunderbolt to him. His mind gave way when he saw that the man was being crucified, he lost consciousness and collapsed at 'Calvary' in agony and in a coma. After 3 days he slowly gains consciousness and is told that JESUS of Nazareth was RISEN. Full of Joy, hope and wonder, he sees the Risen Christ standing near him and from his gaze realises the message radiated to him alone " Worthy King , you have followed my will unceasingly and paid me homage and worship since the day I was born. You have done well the will of my Heavenly Father, God Supreme; your gifts have truly pleased me every step of your way. Verily I say unto thee, inasmuch as thou hast done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, thou hast done it unto me.� Miraculously, he became well and strong and the LORD promised him, as all faithful and good are assured "You will be with me and receive your great reward".

Let this 4th King, Artaban, that we now know, be a model even to

those who cannot act or participate in a vilifying manner, not be

ostracised and judged in the absence of understanding or the lack of it. All other 'Kings' may conform to and/or bow to the ease of the majority and forget the desire and demands of the Supreme justice and seek 'acceptance' of the unawakened.

The Fourth King in spirit, could well be the inspiration that needs to fill all 'people of Good will’ in this difficult situation of 2020 and 2021 to change the parameters that are destroying the universe and humanity in unimaginable ways.

Only a revolutionary change renewing the human in all levels to goodness and integrity of the higher order will spell a CHRISTMAS that is true and
