Hinduism in Goa : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hinduism in Goa
Hinduism is an ancient tradition in Goa. Goan Hindus proudly call themselves ''Konkane'' ( कोंकणे ),meaning, the residents of ''Konkan'' Presently Hindus form about 70% of the population of Goa. Vedic Hindus had settled in the Sapta Konkanas(Western Indian Coast) and formed settlements in and around present day Goa.The Brahmins traditionally speak of being brought by Lord Parshuram from Trihotrapur in the east for the performance of Vedic Sacrifices (''Yagnyas''). They built Agrashalas and Maths and formed the settlements of Sasashti (Salcette/66 settlements), Tiswadi (30 settlements), Bardez (12 settlements) and so forth. The Kadamaba rulers of Goa in the 11th Century were Jains. The Kadambas themselves later adopted Hinduism. ==History== The arrival of the Portuguese brought Christianity. Hindu temples were destroyed, churches built in their places. Hindus were denied any rights. These included rights to hold property, rights of worship and carrying on their rituals including the right to cremate their dead. In the 16th century most Hindus fled the Portuguese territories to the territories held by the Hindu kings of Sonde and the Canara and Malabar Coast where significant communities of Konkani Goan Hindus still survive until today. Very few Hindus continued to exist in the Portuguese held Velha conquistas. With the passage of time and the liberalisation of the Portuguese religious laws, Hindus were finally able to rebuild some of their temples in Old Goa. The capture of the Nova conquistas with its large Hindu populace happened in the 18th century when the religious zeal of the Portuguese had dampened. Hindus were thus able to rebuild the temples of their Gods in the Nova conquistas. The annexation of Goa saw the return of religious freedom for Hindus and Hinduism flourished in Goa. Currently 70.19% of the Goan populace adhere to Hinduism.
