Song Lyrics - രചന: ജീബോ ജി കുളത്തുങ്കല്‍
26 November 2009
(കരുണ ക്കടലെ ഞാന്‍.... എന്ന രീതി )
ലൌകിക മോഹത്താലേ ഞാന്‍
നിന്നോടും സ്വര്‍ഗ്ഗത്തോടും
പാപം ചെയ്തു മുടിയന്‍ പുത്രന്‍ പോല്‍
മാനസ ശാന്തി യക ന്നെന്നില്‍
നിന്നും പൊയ് പോയ്‌ ജ്ഞാനമതും
നേടിയതോ ഞാന്‍ ഇരുളെന്‍ അകതാരില്‍
സ്നാനത്താല്‍ ഞാന്‍ നേടിയതാം
നിന്‍ റൂഹായിന്‍ ആവാസം
നഷ്ടമാതാക്കി ഞാനയ്യോ ദോഷി
കരുണ നിറഞ്ഞവനെ എന്റെ
ഹൃദയം കേഴുമ്പോള്‍ എന്നില്‍
ഹാലേലുയ്യാ കൃപ തോന്നീടണമേ
നിന്‍ ആലയമതില്‍ ഞാന്‍ എത്തി
ആചാര്യത്വത്തിന്‍ മുന്‍പില്‍
ഏറ്റു പറഞ്ഞീ - ടുന്നെന്നുടെ പിഴകള്‍
ബലിപീOത്തിങ്കല്‍ നിന്നും
നിന്‍ തനുവും നിണവും തന്നി -
ട്ടെന്നാത്മത്തെ വീണ്ടും പുതുതാക്ക
പാപച്ചെളിയില്‍ ഞാന്‍ വീണ്ടും
വീഴാതെന്നെ കാത്തീടാന്‍
നിന്‍ റൂഹായെ മേന്മേല്‍ പകരണമേ
അന്ത്യത്തോളം നിന്‍ സ്തുതികള്‍
പാടും പ്രജയായ് തീര്‍ന്നീടാന്‍
ഹാലേലുയ്യാ കൃപ ചെയ്യണമെന്നില്‍

Why do we pray facing the East?
13 August 2009
Why do we pray facing the East?
It is a strong tradition since the Apostolic times and it has biblical foundation: “For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man” (St. Matthew 24:27). In its prayers, the Church awaits the Second Coming from the east. During the birth of Jesus, signs were seen in the east (St. Matthew 2:2). “…the Sun of justice shall arise from the east” (Malachi 4:2). The glory of the Lord entered the temple by the gate facing east (Ezekiel 43:4). The gate facing the east shall be opened during worship (Ezekiel. 46:12). There are references in the Apostolic Constitution, Martyrdom of Polycarp and other patristic writings about the Church in the early days praying facing the east.

Why turn to east for prayer?
Why turn to east for prayer?
By FR.DR.K.M.GEORGEPrincipal Orthodox Theological Seminary, Kottayam
Source - www.lightoflife.com
Why do we turn to the East while we pray? Can we not pray in any direction? Since God is present every where and can hear our prayer, is it really necessary that we turn to a particular direction while praying?Jews who live anywhere outside the holy city of Jerusalem traditionally turn to the direction of Jerusalem in Palestine (modern Israel) for prayer, Muslims anywhere in the world will turn to Ka'aba, the sacred black stone in Mecca, Saudi Arabia for the prescribed hours of prayer. Christians from very ancient times used to turn to the direction of the rising sun for public prayer. For Christians in the western world this tradition is nearly lost. However all Christians belonging to the Eastern (Orthodox) Christian churches still maintain this venerable practice of turning to the East for the public act of the community worship.In the Christian church, we make a distinction between the personal prayer of an individual and the public worship of the Christian Community. An individual is free to pray any time, in any direction and in any posture. In fact, Christ and and the Apostles encouraged the practice of "unceasing prayer". One can pray while taking a bath, playing or eating. One can maintain the mood of prayer through out the day. This kind of continuous prayer of an individual has no fixed form or style or words. This could be done mostly in silence or with words one chooses or with the help of ancient prayers like the famous " Jesus Prayer". This can be practiced without engaging our conscious mind at all. This is essentially the practice of the presence of God every moment of our earthly life.But public worship is different in its form and style. It is a community prayer in which many individuals together constitute one body, an expression of the body of Christ, the Church. They are not an ad-hoc community, but they continue the unbroken tradition of worshipping the Triune God from the time of the Apostles onwards. The best example of this kind of public worship is the Eucharistic liturgy or Holy Qurbana. In public worship we turn to East, the direction of the rising sun.
The Apostles of Christ were all Jews. The early disciples of Christ in Palestine were mostly Jews. They prayed like other Jews. Soon however, Christians developed their own prayers addressed to Christ as the saviour.Because of a new spiritual awareness in the early Christian community, Christians developed a detachment to physical places like Jerusalem. Their absorbing concern was with the "Heavenly Jerusalem" and the way to reach that abiding spiritual city. All places on earth were the same for them. No place was particularly sacred. So the early Christian community gradually moved away from the Jewish orientation to the city of Jerusalem in Palestine. At the same time a new sense of direction emerged in Christian worship, namely the direction of the rising sun.
This eastward direction developed in Christianity has a strong biblical basis:
i)In the biblical story of creation we read: " And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed ( Gen. 2:8). Eventually Adam and Eve, after their act of disobedience were sent out from the Garden of Eden in the East. According to Christian interpretation, since the time of this expulsion of the first parents by the eastern gate of paradise (=garden), all children of Adam and Eve look back to their lost home, the paradise in the East, with a deep sense of spiritual home sickness. So salvation is understood partly as a return to the original home.
ii)The prophets foretold the coming of Jesus as the Messiah in symbolic and figurative language. The New Testament writers interpreted these prophecies as having been fulfilled in Jesus of Nazareth. For example the prophecy of Malachi. " But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings" ( 4: 2). So looking to the East stands for our earnest waiting for the coming of Christ, the healer and saviour of the world.
iii)Jesus said: " I am the light of the world, he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life" ( St. John 8:12) Light is the source of life. On our planet earth, all life depends on the light of the sun. But the physical sun in our solar system sustains only biological life in plants, animals, and human beings. This life will eventually die. The sun as a star will ultimately die as well. In the spiritual realm, Jesus is the eternal sun. He is the source and sustainer of all life, both biological and spiritual. He is " the true light that enlightens every human being" ( St. John, 1:9 ).Therefore we symbolically turn to the direction of the rising sun to receive the light of the risen Christ. Christ is also called " the bright morning star" ( Rev. 22:16) He inaugurated the new age of the Kingdom of God. As the dawn breaks, the eastern horizon brightens up with beautiful colours. We turn to the beauty and brilliance of God's light as we praise the triune God facing east.
iv)A popular Christian belief developed in the course of time that in the Second Coming, Christ would come from the East. The basis of this tradition is the Gospel reference ( Matt. 24:27) that the coming of the Son of Man would be like lightening that shines from the east to the west.
So, turning to the east stands for our final preparation to receive Christ when he comes for the last Judgment of the world. Thus the east symbolizes our spiritual wakefulness, our readiness to give account of our life and our hope in the transfiguration of all creation in Christ our Lord.This biblical, Christ centered tradition of the church of turning to the east in prayer is part of the rich heritage of the Orthodox church. We build our churches in the east-west direction. The whole congregation together with the priest turns to east in remembrance of all that God grants us from the time of our creation in Paradise to the fulfillment of all in the Second coming of Christ. The bodies of our beloved departed faithful are laid to rest facing the east with the hope of resurrection and meeting Jesus face to face.Turning to the East, of course is a symbolic act. We know that East and West, South and North have no physical and geographical significance in the age of space travel in a Tran terrestrial cosmic frame. Yet it is a deeply spiritual symbol and a most beautiful one in the whole of Christian tradition. In special situations when the place or building where we worship happens to be inconvenient for the traditional orientation of the community, we are free to turn to any suitable direction. The sense of the east gives the right " orientation" ( from the world Orient + East ) for our earthly life in the midst of suffering, doubt, and spiritual disorientation. In any case, it is only wise to keep this ancient tradition in its right spirit.

Spiritual Organisations
15 June 2009
ORTHODOX SYRIAN SUNDAY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
This is a spiritual organization functioning in all the parishes of the Orthodox Church throughout the world. It takes care of the spiritual nurturing of the children, by bringing them up in the knowledge and fellowship of Jesus Christ and His Church.
The classes range from Pre-primary classes to the 12th class. As in secular schools, class ten concludes the secondary level and a certificate is awarded –Sunday School final Certificate (SSFC) to the successful candidates. Higher Secondary course is for another tow years.
We follow a curriculum, jointly prepared and published by the Oriental Orthodox Churches which is revised from time to time.
The vacation Bible School conducted during the mid summer holidays (OVBS) is a very vibrant wing of the O.S.S.A.E. we publish separate text books, devotional materials, song books and cassettes for the OVBS every year.
ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN YOUTH MOVEMENT OF THE EAST
The Orthodox Christian Youth Movement (OCYM), the Youth-wing of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church is in its 72nd year of active leadership and Christian witness in the Church and Society. It contributes to the goodness and progress of the Church and community in the three-fold path of Worship, Study and Service. It aims at molding the minds and visions of the youth against the background of the contemporary issues. In 1967 the Holy Synod recognized the Administrative Wing of the Youth Movement. H.G Dr. Youhanon Mor Meletius Metropolitan, the president of OCYM is leading a vital role in enhancing the activities and bringing togetherness and harmony among the youths.
MARTHA MARIAM VANITHA SAMAJAM
Man the most superior of all creations was created to love and to be loved. God imparted fullness of personality and freedom to man, he was expected to grow in the wholesomeness of his relationship with the creator, the fellow being and nature. But today he is in a state of constant conflict with all. In the context of such disharmony, let us try to surrender ourselves entirely to God’s will and seek resort in the mediation of Mother Mary, in carrying forward the mission of the MARTHA MARIAM VANITHA SAMAJAM.
MGOCSM
Mar Gregorios Orthodox Christian Student Movement
Mar Gregorios Orthodox Christian Student Movement (MGOCSM) is the student wing of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church. The aim of the organisation is to bring together our students in various colleges and high schools with a view to deepening their spiritual life and to create in them a livelier sense of fellowship. Ours is the oldest Christian student organization in India.
Our motto is Worship - Service - Study.
AIM: (i) to deepen the spiritual life of the students,
(ii) to lead them to be loyal members of the Church, and
(iii) to influence them to devote themselves for the work of extending
the Kingdom of God.
MGOCSM have been maintaining inter-disciplinary contacts in the academic field for along time by the formation of its wings. There are college student's wing, high school student's wing, University teacher's association, School teacher's association, Medical Auxiliary, Technical Auxiliary, Missionary forum, Literary forum, Publication wing, and etc.
The greatest contribution the movement had made to the church is that, it has prepared and provided able and outstanding leaders for his/her service from time to time. In spite of the chaos in the academic world, the movement is going ahead with its dynamic programs seeking the intercession of our patron St: Gregorios of Parumala.
