The Journey of 150 years‌ Pope Francis on May 17th, 2015 as St Mary of Jesus Crucified.

Sr Dr M. Jeswina A.C.

The

first momentous step of the 150 glorious year’s journey of Apostolic Carmel Sisters in India was taken on 19 November 1870. It was on this day; three pioneering Apostolic Carmel Sisters along with three Cloistered Carmel sisters set foot on the soil on Mangalore, India and embarked on their mission of the empowerment of girl children through education. It is a day immortalized in the history of Mangalore. Of the three Cloistered Carmelites, one of these, Mariam Baouardi has been canonized by

In the 1870s, Mangalore was a large village and part of British India. It was an era unmarked by modern conveniences such as macadamized roads, electric lights, and efficient systems of transport. Of the last, the only means of travel available to the populace were bullock carts and a few horse-drawn carriages. It was also a time when typhoid and malaria were rampant and deadly.

Thinking was not progressive either, and the quality of life of women was unenviable. Girls received no education and married while they were in their early teens. The Hunter Education Commission noted that in 1881 only 0.2% of the women of this part of India were literate.

This was the scenario which met the Apostolic Carmel Congregation. It did not daunt them but rather, inspired the brave Sisters to venture into female education as the first step to modernization and societal upliftment. They vowed to provide

25 Veez Konkani

literacy as the foundation of the growth and progress of society.

It was at this historical moment that God chose Mother Veronica, nee Sophie Leeves, an English woman with vision, to initiate the great task of education for girl children. It was while she was serving the poorest of the poor in Kerala and witnessed the plight of little girls that she was inspired to found the Apostolic Carmel Congregation.

She was followed by a succession of great collaborators. Mother Marie Des Anges, the First Superior General along with Mother Aloysia laid sturdy bedrock for women’s education which was the main apostolate of the A.C. Congregation.

160, the following year. This was solely on account of the quality education provided by the pioneering Sisters. The impact of education on the lives of girls was so great that parents from different localities earnestly exhorted the Management of the Congregation to open schools in different places.

St Ann’s Convent now served as the Mother House and a number of schools were established in rapid succession in different corners of Mangalore, and thereafter in Karnataka, Kerala states and Sri Lanka. As the Congregation grew in strength more schools and colleges were established in various states of India, Pakistan, Kuwait, Bahrain and East Africa. Today girls in their thousands continue to be educated in different parts of the world.

The first school, a veritable temple of learning with 40 students at St Ann’s, Mangalore took a leap forward in terms of enrollments to 26 Veez Konkani

The Management of the Apostolic Carmel, with characteristic foresight, perceived the need for personnel to be trained to educate young women. This inspired Mother Aloysia to found a Teacher Training Institute as early as in 1890, the first of its kind in South India and for many years the only Teachers’ Training Institute which gifted hundreds of trained and dedicated teachers to facilitate the all-round development of girls, in particular.

But, doubtless, the greatest contribution to women’s education rests in the establishment of St Agnes College in 1920-21 by Mother Aloysia A.C., the Congregation’s second Superior General. She realized that at that point in world history, when women as wives and mothers held the destiny of the nation in their hands, they themselves ought to be moulded by the ideals of life. With her contemporary thinking, she also desired the College to impart joboriented education.

St Agnes College is the first Women’ College on the west coast of India and the first in the entire country to be run by a private management.

This Institution served to inspire the rest of the women of India who now aimed to receive higher education themselves. To serve their noble aspirations three colleges were founded: Patna Women’s College, Bihar; Providence College, Kerala; and Carmel College, Goa. Research Centres too were established.

The continued need to have trained personnel gave birth to St Ann’s College of Education that has provided thousands of trained teachers to the whole world.

The holistic training provided in these schools and colleges has inspired many young women to dedicate their lives to God and the service of society as Religious Sisters in the Apostolic Carmel as also in several other congregations.

Besides education, the Apostolic Carmel has catered to the needs of

27 Veez Konkani

the marginalized of society and to less privileged children by building and running orphanages, social service centres, technical schools, schools and residences for differently abled children and adults, crèches, health care centres, counselling centres, homes for destitutes, needle work centres, boarding homes and hostels, vocational courses, community colleges, homes for the aged and social welfare centres. The Sisters have also adopted other ministries, institutions, programmes and causes in their parishes and its surrounding villages. These include prison ministry, SHGs, rescue homes, adult education and care for delinquents, to name a few.

At this celebration of the one hundred and fifty years of sacrificial love and committed service of the Apostolic Carmel Sisters, along with the collaboration of the staff, students, parents, alumni, benefactors and well-wishers, the Congregation wishes to express its profound gratitude to all the ‘Keepers of the Flame’ which was once lit by their Founder, the Venerable Mother Veronica.

The Sisters of the Congregation acknowledge with deep humility and respect all services, temporal and spiritual, rendered by Church leaders and other individuals who have contributed to the growth and development of the Apostolic Carmel, and thereby, of society itself.

LIGHT A LAMP! *Fr. Cedric Prakash SJ

powerful, the influential or to the ruling regime! A justice which hears the cry of the poor, the Adivasis, the Dalits and the sub-alterns of our society.

Light a lamp for COURAGE – to illumine the darkness which has engulfed many everywhere! Diwali, the Festival of Lights is a reminder that each one of us is called to be a light in our world today; a light that is visible, enkindling other lights with hope and in doing so, dispelling the fears and hopelessness that have gripped the lives of many!

Light a lamp for JUSTICE – which we desperately need in our country today! A justice which is objective and impartial; which is not of fear nor seeks any favour; which does not kowtow to the rich, the

Light a lamp for LIBERTY – that India awakes to that “heaven of freedom”, which Rabindranath Tagore prayed for. When every single citizen has the freedom of speech and expression and is not slapped with archaic laws of sedition and contempt of court; where freedom of religion and belief is not some theory but a reality in practice.

Light a lamp for TRUTH – which should be an indispensable dimension of our daily lives. Sadly, the beautiful prayer from the Upanishads, “from untruth lead me to truth”, has been destroyed beyond recognition by ‘fekuisms’, lies and half-truths. We no longer seem to align our lives with Gandhi’s ‘satyagraha’ or with

39 Veez Konkani

‘Satyameva Jayate’ Light a lamp for JOY – of childhood, of innocence, of spontaneity. Today as we celebrate ‘Children’s Day’ in India, we remember the millions of children who have been robbed of their childhood – forced into child labour and other abuses. We joyously also remember our visionary former Prime Minister Nehru and his genuine love for children.

Light a lamp for FRATERNITY – as Pope Francis reminds us in ‘Fratelli Tutti’ – “I have felt particularly

encouraged by the Grand Imam Ahmad Al-Tayyeb, with whom I met in Abu Dhabi, where we declared that, “God has created all human beings equal in rights, duties and dignity, and has called them to live together as brothers and sisters”.

Light a lamp for SENSITIVITY – which a Mother so beautifully epitomizes through her love, her care, her sacrifices, the nurturing to help her children grow. I remember my own mother Cynthia (who meant the world to us) who left for

her heavenly abode on this day ten years ago. We yearn for the sensitivity of a Mother – the feminine face of God. Light a lamp for INCLUSION – in a society which is becoming more divisive and polarized. We see this happening all the time: to migrants, to refugees, those not ‘like’ us. The late and beloved Fr Pedro Arrupe founded the Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) on this day (his birth anniversary), so that we truly accompany the ‘nowhere’ people of today.

Light a lamp for HUMAN RIGHTS – for all those who have risked their lives to defend the rights of others.

Fr Stan Swamy and fifteen others in the Bhima-Koregaon case are illegally imprisoned under the draconian UAPA. They have stood up courageously for the rights of the Adivasis, the Dalits, the poor and other vulnerable in society.

Light a lamp for RESTORATION – for the ability and creativity we need to make all things new.

Today, we celebrate the Feast of St Joseph Pignatelli – a great Jesuit

40 Veez Konkani

who is regarded as the restorer of the Society of Jesus. The Jesuits were suppressed from 1773 to 1814 (41 years) in many countries, mainly for not toeing the line of the ‘establishment’!

Light a lamp for PEACE – for all people everywhere; a peace which is respectful, wherein all are treated equally. Where a young woman feels safe and secure; where the elderly are assured of a helping hand; where people can celebrate each other’s festivals; where two lovers can marry irrespective of their different faiths. Where peace is love!

Light a lamp for CHANGE – which this red-letter day, 14 November

2020, signifies and actually mandates in so many different ways! A call for courage, for justice, for liberty, for truth, for joy, for fraternity, for sensitivity, for inclusion, for restoration, for human rights, for peace, for love and above all, for renewal and for CHANGE Light a Lamp – today, tonight, tomorrow and everyday, till we realise the above; and after that, continue to keep the fire burning!!!

More than six months into the Corona pandemic, with religious rituals in many areas world over still restricted or closed; has a

Religious & Spiritual Pandemic sprung to life in the church in 2020? Most say yes. With a distinct possibility of more 54 Veez Konkani

lockdowns predicted, the church scenario is confusing and confounding - perceptions are seriously transforming. Older people, say above 60 years, who were before 'Vatican II', well drilled into the norms of traditional rituals / worship in the church in the Latin era, who found the adjustments post 1960s disrupting their accepted outlook have slowly adjusted. Younger people, around 50 years and below, are flexible and not very firm. Regulations of the church on prayer, mass and communion, sadly are very casual in recent times, no eyebrows are raised or objections active for any out of the box behaviour. And more confpunding to traditional catholics is the Pope's indication of the desire to induct 'Artificial Intelligence' (AI) and 'Robotics' into the sacred sanctuary of the future Church. So, maybe we will have 'Robotic catholic clergy' in the not far off future? Many think the conditions and the outlook point to distinct possibilities!

Routine worship & prayers: The ever present doubts about the

communion in church these days, is a constant doubting tug of war and controversy of diluting the traditions Communion on the hand was not meant in all circumstances as has been loosely extended in India and has widely become a misused resulting in unethical situations which the church fathers conveniently turn a blind eye to. Where is the true faith posture regarding the 'presence of Christ' in the small, delicate white wafer, it has become grossly ignored and treated as a myth (and even a joke) by those very Catholics charged to believe through sacraments of the church the insiders, not out siders.

Emeritus Pope Benedict, in the course of his reign and later too, clearly exhorted, to show the utmost reverence , not received in the hand but on the tongue, and in a very fervent posture of kneeling.

Pope Francis has ignored it and this

55 Veez Konkani

is on the back burner; the handling of the eucharist in the church, now with mask wearing and physical distance keeping is very like a mockery mixed with disrespect as per the church's own standards and teaching.

True observations cited are a plenty where even faithful considered mature, well educated, responsible and from traditional catholic backgrounds ( even religious) , receive communion in a most casual manner, hold the consecrated host in their hand/fist, along with kerchiefs, mobiles and so on, walk to their seats and pop into the mouth without attention or reverence. Instances have been admitted where some put inside hand bags and pockets, to carry home, God knows why. This is against basic ethics and civility, highly wrong as per moral and canonical doctrine of the church and traditional belief. It is a failure totally, implementing it seriously is neglected due to gross indifference and human self glory. The needed action of the clergy and action if any by ecclestical authorities is always in wraps and

the church kept in dark, making transparency a serious casualty. So, where and what is the real cause and remedy to a more serious pandemic deeply rooted?

It may fail to edify the general congregation to experience how regular, routine prayers and rituals in private chapels and communities are held - it all points to inattentive, crudely recited, half articulated recitation at regular intervals which hardly meets the norms of worship, adoration and prayer to Glorify a God who is claimed to be all Supreme.

Post Corona: Many regular formal worshippers are nursing grudges and hurts against the church and clergy for cognisable indifference and marginalisation during early and

56 Veez Konkani

now corona 2020, without giving any due reason. Online worship and rituals have caused aversion in many regular faithful, who after years of sincere attendance at services feel deeply deprived and cheated. They are convinced it is best to be in their homes and pray fervently avoiding the formalities and repetitive rituals in church - the satisfaction they say is more durable than any formal church service.

To many it seems that God himself has directed the faulty worship to a better level without superfluous ceremony in this cenario. However, the church beliefs are transformed not based on God's commands but, convenience of the umans, church hierarchy for, of and by man.

Worship and adoration of the supreme has fallen to be secondary. Anything is now acceptable in organised religion homosexuality, termination of life at any stage, usurp wealth and power by any and all means in all walks of life, with morals eleminated and ethics obsolete.

Do we need these worship places at all? Who created them and for

what? Who actually benefits from them? A song whose words went, “Human being created religions; Religions created Gods; Human beings and Religions together divided the land and minds of the people�. This is the bitter truth.

Finally, the words of Rabindranath Tagore : Leave this chanting and singing and telling of beads!

Whom do you worship in packed, posh religious places? Open your eyes and see that God is not in a consecrated sanctuary. God is there where the labourer is slogging, tiller is tilling the hard and where the path-maker is breaking stones.

God is with them in the sun and shower, and his garment is covered with dust. Put off your holy shining mantle and like God come to the dusty soil. Come out of your meditation and leave aside the flowers and incense. What harm is there if your clothes become tattered and stained. Meet God and stand by him in the toil and sweat of thy brow. This process will enable people to move towards spirituality and become spiritual.

Their spiritual empowerment is the

57 Veez Konkani

need of the hour and the lesson you need to learn from the present situation. God is with you and within you.
