Penitentes e Velha Goa

"'Now everything is enjoy, enjoy, enjoy,' the elderly priest told UCA News.
Penitential pilgrimages to Old Goa preceding the feast were popular in the past, he recalled, but have shown “a dramatic decline” in recent times [...] priests used to stress the fear of Judgment Day and the focus was on penance. But now priests preach about changing one's mind and way of life, he added."
