DESCRIPTION:October 22nd is the commemoration of the dukhrono of St. Basel
 ios Shakralla +1764 according to the Liturgical Calendar of the Syriac Ort
 hodox Church.\n\nMor Baselios Shakralla Maphriyano was sent by the Patriar
 ch of Antioch to Malankara (India) during a time of turmoil & confusion at
  the request of Marthoma V\, the leader of the Syriac Orthodox Christians 
 in Malankara. Shakralla was born in Aleppo to deacon Moosa Al Quasbji. Aft
 er his seminary education he became a monk & was later ordained priest. Af
 ter the death of Marthoma IV\, a successor was required & so the faithful 
 in Malankara sent letters to the Patriarchate to send someone to validate 
 the consecration of Marthoma V (whose predecessor died before giving valid
  ordination). HH Patriarch Ignatius George III consecrated Raban Shakralla
  as Maphrian & delegated him to India. Baselios Shakralla was accompanied 
 by Mor Gregorios Yuhannon of Jerusalem\, Cor-Episcopo Geevarghese\, Raban 
 Yuhannon\, & 3 deacons (Anthon\, Moosa\, Hadaya Shakr Allah). \n\nThe ento
 urage took the arduous journey to India even in the midst of a difficult p
 olitical climate. Baselios Shakralla Maphrian carried with him 64 manuscri
 pts\, holy books\, three crosses from Jerusalem & relics of saints for the
  Malankara Church. As they began their treacherous journey\, they were fir
 st attacked en route to Baghdad & the money meant for travel was stolen. W
 hen they reached Iran\, the group was forced to remain there for 7 months 
 due to the threat of pirates & the ongoing battle between warlords. From t
 here they reached Surat port in India but not without being robbed again b
 y thieves. Baselios Shakralla reached Cochin on the feast of St. George in
  1751\, the cost to be paid to the company was Rs/-12\,000 (an unimaginabl
 y enormous sum at the time). Contrary to the prior agreement Marthoma V re
 fused to meet the expenses or visit the Maphrian. \n\nMor Baselios sent 4 
 letters to Marthoma V but he did not respond. Baselios Shakralla stayed se
 venty two days at the Fort & after visiting the Rajah of Cochin on 3 Karkk
 idakam\, he reached Kandanad Church on 4 Karkidakam 1751. Even there the m
 eeting with Marthoma V did not happen. The Maphrian went to Kothamangalam 
 travelling on foot via Mulamthuruthy\, Kolanchery & Kunnukurudy. \n\nMor B
 aselios stayed at Kothamangalam Valiyapally & Marthoma V at the nearby Che
 riya pally for some days. In spite of that\, the expected meeting did not 
 take place. The Maphrian offered prayers at the tomb of his predecessor St
 . Baselios Yeldho Maphriyano & waited for the arrival of Marthoma V in vai
 n. Marthoma V had spread some erroneous statements about the Maphrian. In 
 this context\, on 30 Medam 1752 Raban Yuhannon who had accompanied the Map
 hrian was consecrated the Malankara Metropolitan instead of Marthoma V at 
 Kandanad Church. Raban Yuhannon was hence known as Mor Ivanios. Mor Baseli
 os Shakralla also ordained many priests\, monks\, deacons & he diligently 
 worked to root out all the elements of Latin influence during the Portugue
 se subjugation of the Malankara Church.\n\nMor Baselios Shakralla nurtured
  the Syriac Orthodox Church in Malankara for 13 years despite all the hard
 ships he had to endure. He reposed in the Lord while staying at Mattancher
 ry Church (which he built). His mortal remains were later entombed in St. 
 Mary's Cathedral Kandanad. In October 2008 vis Patriarchal Apostolic Bull 
 E213/08\, the thrice blessed late Patriarch HH Moran Mor Ignatius Zakka I 
 Iwas of blessed memory declared and glorified Mor Baselios Shakralla Maphr
 iyano as a saint\, permitting the prayers at his tomb (Zadhiko). In 2017 v
 is Patriarchal Apostolic Bull No. E I23/17\; the Patriarch of Antioch and 
 all the East HH Moran Mor Ignatius Aphrem II permitted the recitation of t
 he name of St. Baselios Shakralla in the 5th Thubden (Thubden d-Qadishe) a
 t all Malankara parishes across the world. \n\nBiography courtesy of\, 'Ma
 rtyrs\, Saints and Prelates of the Syriac Orthodox Church' \n\nOh Mor Base
 lios Shakralla Maphriyano! Plead for us before God's throne of grace. Amen
