In 1653 there occurred a revolt, known in history as the Coonan Cross Oath, of almost all the Thomas Christians against the undue interference in the life of the Church by the Portuguese, who were the colonial power in those days. Eventually one section came under the influence of the West Asian Syrian Orthodox Church and later under the West European Anglican Church. That group lost the full Catholic communion and came to be known as the Puthenkuttukar (people of the new allegiance). The other group, which formed the majority, was known as the Pazhayakuttukar (people of the old allegiance) and they are today’s Syro-Malabar Catholics. History witnessed several further splits in the Puthenkur community: a small group formed the Thozhiyur Church (1772), another group became CMS-Anglican (1836), another group became Reformed Jacobites or Marthomites (1889), a fourth group became Orthodox (1912) and one group reunited with the Catholic Church (1930) and the rest formed a separate registered Society as the Jacobite Syrian Church (2003). 8 Introduction 9 There were continuous efforts from the part of Puthenkuttukar and Pazhayakuttukar for reestablishing the lost unity of the Church. But none of the attempts succeeded. In 1926 the bishops of the Orthodox faction entered into ecumenical negotiations with the Roman Catholic Church. They deputed Mar Ivanios to enter into negotiations. They demanded that their autonomy should be maintained and their bishops should 1 have the right to take care of their faithful wherever they are. Rome agreed to receive them into full and visible Catholic communion and they in their The Malankara Catholic Church turn agreed to accept the Pope as the successor of St. Peter in the ancient See of Rome. There was a mutual recognition and mutual acceptance as a result of the negotiation. The community was received into the Catholic Its Apostolic Origin communion as a Church sui juris or as an Individual Church. Thus the lost full communion of 1653 was regained in 1930 through the historical Reunion. A new door was opened for all Thomas Christians who desired to enter into the visible and full Catholic communion. Of course, all the Our Lord Jesus Christ sent his twelve disciples to the four corners participants in the negotiation were led by the ecclesiology of those days. of the world as heralds of the Good News of salvation, which is “to give great joy to the entire world”(Lk 2:10).

  • Christian Saṃnyāsis and the Enduring Influence of Bede Griffiths in California
    3 (2016) Miscellaneous 3: AP-BI Christian Saṃnyāsis and the Enduring Influence of Bede Griffiths in California ENRICO BELTRAMINI Department of Religious Studies, Santa Clara University, California, USA © 2016 Ruhr-Universität Bochum Entangled Religions 3 (2016) ISSN 2363-6696 http://dx.doi.org/10.13154/er.v3.2016.AP-BI Enrico Beltramini Christian Saṃnyāsis and the Enduring Influence of Bede Griffiths in California ENRICO BELTRAMINI Santa Clara University, California, USA ABSTRACT This article thematizes a spiritual movement of ascetic hermits in California, which is based on the religious practice of Bede Griffiths. These hermits took their religious vows in India as Christian saṃnyāsis, in the hands of Father Bede, and then returned to California to ignite a contemplative renewal in the Christian dispirited tradition. Some tried to integrate such Indian tradition in the Benedictine order, while others traced new paths. KEY WORDS Bede; Griffiths; California; saṃnyāsa; Camaldoli; Christianity Preliminary Remarks— Sources and Definitions The present paper profited greatly from its main sources, Sr. Michaela Terrio and Br. Francis Ali, hermits at Sky Farm Hermitage, who generously shared with me their memories of Bede Griffiths as well as spiritual insights of their life of renunciation as Christian saṃnyāsis in California. Several of the personalities mentioned in this article are personally known to the author. I offer a definition of the main terms used here:saṃnyāsis ‘ ’ are the renouncers, the acosmic hermits in the tradition of the Gītā; ‘saṃnyāsa’ is the ancient Indian consecration to acosmism and also the fourth and last stage (aśhrama) in the growth of human life; ‘guru’ is a polysemic word in India; its theological meaning depends on the religious tradition.

  • Abraham Malpan
    Abraham Malpan By: Alex Kolath Date: 7 February 2008 Revised: 15 August 2010 1 Introduction In the history of the Mar Thoma Church there are many notable and influential persons that helped reform the church to what it is today. For example, Mathews Mar Athanasius, Titus I Mar Thoma, Abraham Mar Thoma, Alexander Mar Thoma, or lay persons such as K.K. Kuruvilla, C.P. Mathew and K.N. Daniel have all played a role in the reforming of the Mar Thoma Church. But there is one person that all these aforementioned persons would likely regard as the key reformer in the history of the Mar Thoma Church; the person who initiated the reformation movement that eventually formed the Mar Thoma Church: Pulakunnathu Abraham Malpan. The story of this man, Abraham Malpan (“Malpan” is a Syriac term for professor), is a difficult one to tell. The literature available is limited. He himself did not write much, if anything at all, about himself or what he believed. If he did, these writings have not been found. Yet, despite the scarcity of information on the Malpan, he has a legacy and tradition that continues in the church to this day. However, due to the many unknowns regarding him, his story has likely been exaggerated in some parts, perhaps even fabricated in some others, yet certainly there would have to be truths found in his tradition as well. In this paper, we will look at the story of Abraham Malpan based on the information available. His history, his personality and his role in the reformation will be examined.

(Lk. 5:4). St. Aloysius Minor Seminary has taken these words as the motto for the academic year 2016-2017. By "going deep" we find our Christian vocation and mission especially in having a personal relationshion with the living Christ. When Peter and his companions acted according to the command of the Lord, they had a miraculous catch (Lk. 5:6). In the same way, our Seminarians strive to develop a deeper relationship with Jesus in everything we do, we are, and we are called to be. In many areas of life, especially in our discipleship, we can work so hard and seem to have so little to show for it.

Rev. Dr. Euyakim Mar Coorilos Foreword Dearly beloved in Christ, A new curriculum for our Sunday School has been a felt need in this Diocese. I am glad that the new curriculum is ready to be introduced in 2006. Here we are in the process of a transition from Cokesbury to the Mar Thoma Sunday School Samajam Curriculum. While retaining the essential elements and the frame work of the Samajam Curriculum, the lessons and stories are made more conducive to our situations and challenges. The overall theme is “Being God’s People in God’s World” Summary of Work in Three Years: The work for the curriculum started in 2002 soon after the publication of the revised edition of the book, “The Mar Thoma Church: Our Foundation and Vision (CSS Publication, 2001) and the special issue of Messenger in January 2002 which explained the development of Sunday Schools in North America. The Diocesan Sunday School Council in 2002 entrusted the task of the new curriculum with Dr. T. M. Thomas, who had been active for the growth of the Sunday schools even from the beginning of the Diocese. (He was the first convener of the Sunday school committee formed at the Zonal Assembly of 1982, Philadelphia, presided by our late Suffragan Bishop Rt. Rev. Thomas Mar Athanasius). Preliminary discussions were held at the Family Conference of Dallas, 2002.

    DIPLOMARBEIT Titel der Diplomarbeit Placid Podipara´s Reflection on the Church “St. Thomas Christians are Indian in Culture” Verfasser Lijo Joseph angestrebter akademischer Grad Magister der Theologie (Mag. theol.) Wien, 2015 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 011 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Diplomstudium Katholische Fachtheologie Betreuer: Univ.-Prof. Mag. Dr. Rudolf Prokschi 2 Dedicated to all the members of the Syro-Malabar Church 3 4 Acknowledgements This is a master’s degree thesis investigate on Placid Podipara’s reflection on the Church “St. Thomas Christians are Indian in culture”. It is a humble attempt to know how Fr. Placid Podipara understood the birth and spread of Christianity through the preaching of St. Thomas the Apostle. With the passage of time, Christian religion rooted well, adapting itself to the customs and practices of the place. There was no attempt on the part of Christians to remain aloof from a given society or tried to remain a separate entity. The Church has accepted, absorbed, and assimilated itself to the good elements of Indian culture. With deep sense of gratitude, I acknowledge the valuable contribution of some important persons who helped me to complete this task. I am thankful to my bishop, Mar Mathew Arackal, Bishop of Kanjirappally, India, who sent me to Austria to do my theological studies in the University of Vienna. Gratefully I acknowledge the role of Univ.-Prof. Mag. Dr. Rudolf Prokschi for his valuable suggestions, corrections, and guidance. I thank Fr. Stephan Mararikulam MSFS, Fr. Joy Plathottathil SVD, Stefan Jahns, Dr. Daniel Galadza, and Michaela Zachs for the correction of the language and suggestions.
