हम में से प्रत्येक को यह आत्मविश्लेषण करना चाहिए कि हम उस नस्लवादी माहौल को बढ़ाने में कैसे योगदान दे रहे हैं जो विधायी और सामाजिक उपायों के हमारे तमाम बेहतरीन प्रयासों के बावजूद और मजबूत होता हुआ प्रतीत होता है। चाहे हम नस्लवाद के शिकार हों या इसके perpetrator (उत्पीड़क), हमें घुटनों के बल बैठकर (विनम्रता से) इसकी शुरुआत करनी होगी।
Each one of us must ask how we contribute to the racist climate that seems only to grow stronger in spite of our best efforts at legislative and social remedies. Whether we are victims of racism or its perpetrators, we must begin on our knees.

Kisi bhi anya adhyatmik rupantaran ya naye pan ki tarah, dharmanantar ya badlav ki shuruwat is imandar aur sachi swikriti ke sath honi chahiye ki hume apne jeevon me kisi bhi vastavik badlav ke liye Ishwar ki parivartankari shakti ki avashyakta hai, chahe hamara drishtikon koi bhi ho.
Like any other spiritual transformation or renewal, conversion must begin with an honest and a sincere admission that we need God's trans-formative power in our lives to achieve any real change, no matter the perspective from which we might begin.

Hume apne prachar, dharmahiksha aur samajik nyay ki shiksha ko aur behtar banana hoga taaki hamare log puri tarah samajh sakein ki dharmik gathan aur siddhant hamare dainik jeevan ke kisi bhi pehlu se, jisme hamare rajnitik chunav bhi shamil hain, alag nahi ho sakte.
We must refine our evangelization efforts, catechesis, and social-justice teaching to ensure that our people fully understand that religious formation and principles can never be disassociated from any aspect of our daily lives, including our political choices.

Hume apne logon ko yaad dilana chahiye ki katholik samudaay ke bade hisse, jisme unke apne parivar bhi shamil hain, kabhi khud pravasi the jinhe purani peedhiyon ke sankirn pakshpat ko sehna pada tha, jo katholikon ke bare me wahi tiraskari aur katu bhasha bolte the jo aaj naye pravasiyon ke khilaf boli ja rahi hai.
We must remind our people that a great majority of Catholics including their own families were once themselves immigrants forced to endure the nativist bigotry of earlier generations who spoke about Catholics with the same disparaging vitriol being hurled at the new immigrants of now.

Bahut saare gambhir aur uljhe hue mudde hain jinhe mujhe har din face karna padta hai, lekin Pope Francis apne udaharan aur shabdon se mujhe yaad dilate hain ki Christ ne pehle hi srishti ka uddhar kar diya hai aur hum bacha liye gaye hain, tab bhi jab duniya ki samasyaon aur hamare apne gambhir paapon ke karan yeh utna spasht na lagta ho.
There are many serious and knotty issues that I must face each day, but the Pope Francis reminds me by his example and his words that Christ has already redeemed creation and we are saved, even when that might not be so obvious because of the world's many problems and our own grievous sinfulness.

Hamare beech ke pravasiyon ki dekhbhal karne ki hamari pastoral zimmedari par aashcharyajanak aam sahamati thi, chahe unka desh ya dharm koi bhi ho.
There was unusual unanimity on our pastoral responsibility to care for the immigrants in our midst no matter their country of origin or religious affiliation.

Pope Francis ne mere pastoral ministry me anand par ek baar phir dhyan kendrit karne me meri madad ki hai. Unhone mujhe sachmuch yeh vishwas karne ki chunauti di hai ki Gospel church ke anand ka srot hai aur hona bhi chahiye. Papacy ko chalane me unka apna sulabh, prasann aur ashaawadi andaz mujhe yaad dilata hai ki gadwalon (pastors) ko anand se bharpoor hona chahiye varna ve kisi aur ko ise talashne ke liye prerit karne me asafal rahenge.
Pope Francis has helped me to focus once again on the joy in my pastoral ministry. He has challenged me genuinely to believe that the Gospel is and should be the source of the church's joy. His own approachable, cheerful, and hopeful style in exercising the papacy reminds me that shepherds must exude joy or they will fail to lead anyone else to discover it.

Mujhe Peter ki naav ke dono kinaron ke logon ko yeh yaad dilane ki koshish karni padti hai ki hum sab ke liye jagah hai aur hum katholikon ki pehli peedhi nahi hain jinhone gambhir dharmshastriye aur pastoral matbhed dekhe hain. Vastav me, New Testament ke samay se hi church ke majboot netaon me khul kar asahamati rahi hai. Antatah, sachmuch mahan netaon ne vivadon ko sulajhane aur prabhu ke jhund ko ekjut rakhne ke raste dhoond hi liye.
I have to try to remind people on both sides of the barque of Peter that there is room for us all and that we are not the first generation of Catholics to experience serious theological and pastoral differences of opinion. In fact, from the New Testament, strong leaders within the church disagreed openly. Eventually, the truly great ones found ways to heal conflicts and keep the Lord's flock united.

Ek tarah se, prayashchit ka koi bhi kadam un logon ke liye purna nahi hoga jinki zindagi ko ek insan ke roop me aur fir ek katholik sanstha ke vittiy karz ko chukane ke liye insani sampatti ke roop me kam aanka gaya tha. Phir bhi, vishwavidyalaya ko ek aisa karyakram bhi laana chahiye - jaisa ki vah karne ki koshish kar raha hai - jo apne atit ke kamo ki bhayankata aur galti ko swikar kare aur apne chhatro, shikshako aur prashasako ko sabhi logo ki garima ke prati jagruk kare, visheshkar un logo ki jo aaj bhi samman aur garima ke kabil nahi maane jaate.
In one sense, no act of reparation will be satisfactory for those whose lives were so under-valued both as human beings held in slavery and then as human chattel to satisfy the financial indebtedness of a Catholic institution. Nonetheless, the university must also put into place - as it is attempting to do - a program that both admits the horror and error of its past actions and directs its students, faculty, and administrations to an awareness of the dignity of all people, especially those who even today are often considered less than worthy of respect and dignity.

Bahut se pujari kahte hain ki retirement ka matlab meetingon, budget, karmchari vivadon aur "Chancery se nipatne" se azaadi hai. Jabki maine is akhri baat ko vyaktigat roop se na lene ka sangharsh kiya, tab mujhe yaad दिलाया gaya ki maine apne kai bishop mitron se bhi yahi baat suni thi!
Many priests say that retirement is more identified with freedom from meetings, budgets, personnel conflicts, and "dealing with the Chancery." Even as I struggled not to take that last point too personally, I was reminded that I have heard the same sentiment from many of my bishop friends as well!

Achhe ya bure roop me, United States ko sarvajanik aur media ka sabse bada dhyan milta hai. Hum apni badi matra ki wajah se samajik aur sarvajanik media par hone wali adhiktar baatchat ko prabhavit karte hain.
For better or worse, the United States enjoys the lion's share of public and media attention. We influence much of the conversation on social and public media by sheer volume.

Agar jo log Pope Francis aur church ko unke dwara le jaane ki disha ka virodh karte hain, ve dusre desho se hain lekin unke byan American media platformo par chapte hain, toh aisa lag sakta hai ki ve is desh se utpan hue hain ya hamare vichaar ko darshate hain. Maana ki hamare apne virodhi swar hain, lekin bahut baar har vah chunauti bhari aawaz jo Pope ki aalochana karti hai aur American media par prasarit hoti hai, use American hi maan liya jata hai.
If those who voice opposition to Pope Francis and the direction in which he is leading the church come from other nations but their statements are published on American media platforms, it may appear that they originate in this country or reflect our sentiments. We have our own dissident voices to be sure, but too frequently every challenging voice that criticizes the Holy Father and is broadcast on American media is identified as American in origin.
