  • A Syriac Poetic Eulogy for St. Gregorios of Parumala Dr
    1 A Syriac Poetic Eulogy for St. Gregorios of Parumala Dr. Meledath Kurian Thomas [email protected] Photograph of St. Gregorios of Parumala Funeral of St. Gregorios of Parumala - 1902 Taken for the Travancore Government - 1901 Dr. J.J. van Ginkel, affiliated fellow, faculty of humanities, Leiden Institute for Area Studies, the Netherlands, presented an interesting paper in the Eight World Syriac Conference held at Kottayam, India from 8 th to 16 th September 2014. The paper was titled as “A poetic Eulogy from Kharpat for Geevarghese Mar Gregorios (‘Parumala Thirumani’); reflections on the relations with and knowledge of Indian Syriac Church in the Middle East around 1900.” As the title indicates, it was about Metropolitan Geevarghese Mar Gregorios of Niranam, Kollam & Thumpamon dioceses of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church; popularly known as ‘Parumala Thirumani’ , the first Indian canonized Saint. The theme of his paper was about a eulogy written by Mar Dionysius ‘Abd an-Nur Aslan, West Syriac metropolitan of Harput, Homs and Diyarbekir for Parumala Thirumani around the time of the latter’s demise. Before entering into the topic under discussion, here is the brief life sketch of St. Gregorios of Parumala. St. Gregorios of Parumala was born on 15 June 1848 AD at Mulamthuruthy, Ernakulam district, Kerala, India. He received his minor order of deacon ( Korooyo ) on 26 September 1858 AD from Palakkunnath Mar Mathews Athanasios, Malankara Metropolitan and becomes a full deacon in 1864 AD by West Syrian bishop Yooyakkim Mar Coorilos. In the same year he was ordained as a priest by Palakkunnath Mar Mathews Athanasios followed by the elevation as Cor-Episcopus by Yooyakkim Mar Coorilos.

The most recent (3 April, 2009, at Devalokam Aramana Chapel) consecration was the ninth instance. Syriac Patriarchs consecrated Holy Myron in 1876 and 1911, respectively by Patriarch Ignatius Peter IV (27 August, 1876) and Patriarch Ignatius Abdullah II Satuff (19 August, 1911). Mulanthuruthy Marthoman Church was the venue on both occasions. After the Catholicate was relocated in 1912, Catholicos Baselius Geevarghese II consecrated Holy Myron twice at the Old Seminary Chapel (22 April, 1932, and 20 April, 1951). Catholicos Baselius Augen I consecrated the Holy Myron once on 21 December, 1967, again at the Old Seminary Chapel.

  • 1 Rassophore Monk Angelos Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary Perpetual Embers
    1 Rassophore Monk Angelos Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary Perpetual Embers: A Chronicle of ROCOR’s Missionary Efforts in India Introduction The Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia,1 although founded as the church of the post-revolutionary Russian diaspora, also served as the custodian and guardian of the scattered pre-revolutionary Russian Orthodox missions in various parts of the world. From these, some quarters of ROCOR inherited and maintained a missionary spirit that has resulted in Orthodoxy flourishing in places where there had previously been no preaching of Christ’s saving message. Some of these missions have continued to blaze like a fire amidst the growing darkness of our secular age while others have remained ‘perpetual embers,’ steadily glowing through the toils of dedicated missionaries yet never reaching their full potential; God’s will for their full fruition seemingly delayed until He deems it meet. One such mission field is India: the great subcontinent, birthplace of two of the world’s most significant religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, home to one of its largest Muslim populations, and native land to one of the most ancient eastern Christian communities – the Saint Thomas Christians of Kerala.2 ROCOR has been present in India, to some extent, throughout most of ROCOR’s history, particularly in the years immediately before and after the Second World War. A number of ROCOR luminaries – including some who later became bishops and first hierarchs– were involved in the small Indian mission at one time or another, but few, with certain very notable exceptions, made India their home for any considerable period of time.

YOUHANON MAR DEMETRIOS The Catholicos of the East Enthroned on the Apostolic Throne of Metropolitan - Delhi Diocese St. Thomas and Malankara Metropolitan MESSAGE FROM THE VICAR Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, In St. Mark 12:24, Jesus asks, “Is not this the reason you are wrong, that you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God?” . The basic reason for our failures and sufferings is that we do not experience the wisdom, power and salvation which the word of God offers. Between Martha and Mary, Mary chose to sit at the Lord’s feet to listen to Him (Lk 10:39). Jesus testifies her choice and say, “Mary has chosen the better part, which will not be taken away from her”. (Lk. 10:42). Remember, the choice is ours. May this lectionary enable us to be at the feet of the Lord meditating His Words and thus seeking His guidance and blessings. Let the Word of God be the lamp to our feet and light to our path and may it encourage us to be with the Lord in every walks of our life. Fr.

  • Patron Saint's
    Baselios Geevarghese II: In Memoriam Baselius College rings in the New Year with the celebration of its Patron Saint’s Day in the first week of January to offer glowing tributes to His Holiness Baselios Geevarghese II, the late lamented Catholicos of the East, in whose hallowed name this institution was established in 1964 and which has today grown into a great BASELIUS COLLEGE temple of higher learning in Central Kerala. NAAC accredited @ A Grade His Holiness was an illustrious prelate, who like a lodestar, steered the destinies of the KOTTAYAM 686 001 Orthodox Christian Community of India, especially during a very critical period in the history of the Church. As the reigning Catholicos of the Orthodox Church for almost three and a half decades (1929–64), His Holiness left his indelible mark in the socio – cultural domains of Kerala. Sensing the need of the hour, His Holiness pioneered the dissemination of knowledge by founding several educational institutions in the then underdeveloped areas of Kerala. It is in this light that the cultural historians th of Kerala have often equipoised His Holiness with other champions of social causes 54 like Sri Narayana Guru and Chattambi Swamikal. The Holy Father also infused a high sense of spirituality in the minds of many a faithful who often thronged before him, Patron seeking his advice, blessings and solace. His Holiness was born on 16th June 1874 into the illustrious Kallacheril family of Kurichy. The young Punnoose, as he was called then, began his ecclesiastical training Saint’s at the early age of nine under the tutelage of the saintly Parumala Thirumeni.

His Holiness was not willing to cause any harm for the Church where he was the supreme head for about 12 years, even though there were pressures from certain comers. His Holiness has entered the heavenly abode after handing over the steering of the Church to the mighty hands. His Holiness had suffered many sacrifices for about 50 years for the sake of peace, and when peace was re-established, he rejoiced too much and when some of the colleagues tried to spoil the peace His Holiness had suffered the pain too much.
