Most people know him from the single episode in the upper room after Our Lord’s resurrection (John 20) when he at first refused to believe without seeing. And if you refer to “Doubting Thomas” everyone will know whom you mean. But when you take a look at his whole life and his martyr’s death, it would be more accurate if we called him “Trusting Thomas.” Sent out with all of the Apostles to proclaim the Good News to the ends of the earth, Thomas evangelized in Syria and Persia before making his way down the ancient trade route to India, where he was eventually martyred.“is important to us for at least three reasons: first, because it comforts us in our insecurity; second, because it shows us that every doubt can lead to an outcome brighter than any insecurity; and, lastly, because the words that Jesus addressed to him remind us to persevere, despite the difficulty, along our journey of adhesion to him.” Tracing the footsteps of St. Thomas Tracing the footsteps of St. Thomas Tracing the footsteps of St. Thomas Tracing the footsteps of St. Thomas The churches were built at Maliankara in Kodungallur, Kollam, Niranam, Nilackal, Kokkamangalam, Kottakavu, Palayoor and Thiruvithamkode which are located in the present-day Kanyakumari. Ezharappallikal or The Seven And Half Churches The locations of the seven churches have been identified from the chapter on St. Thomas in the Ramban Pattu, which also sketches his travels during the 1st century. What exists now of this text, is the reproduction made by the 48th priest of Maliekkal family. It mentions the arrival of St. Thomas at Malayattoor, his baptizing of 220 persons, and then his tour to Palayoor, Malyankara, Kottakkal, Gokkamangalam and Kollam. He stayed at these places for a year, established churches, and then reached Chayal Mala. The churches were set up close to places on navigable trade routes. Subsequently, Christians stayed in groups and established markets in these places. The Ramban Pattu also says that St.Thomas reached Kodungalloor by ship along with Haban and met the Chola King. The plot of the Ramban Pattu consists of his establishing the churches in Kollam, Niranam, Chayal, Palayoor, Kodungalloor, and Paravur and then moving to Mylapore where he was killed and his soul ascending to heaven escorted by angels. The churches he established, the hillocks where he offered prayers, and his tomb, are being considered sacred places. Christ or the Messiah who is considered to be the son of God. Christianity, one of the major religions of the world is monotheistic (believing in the existence of a single God) and its very basis is the teachings of Jesus Christ or the Messiah who is considered to be the son of God. Having its roots in the Mediterranean coast of the Middle East (modern Israel and Palestine), this religion is ubiquitous, present almost in all countries. Christianity, as a matter of fact, began as a Jewish sect in the middle of the first century and, believes in the doctrine of Trinity implying the belief one god consisting of three persons: the Father, the Son (Christ) and the Holy Spirit. The holy book of Christianity is the Bible which consists of the Old Testament (close to the Jewish Bible) and the New Testament (scriptures). Though there are minor differences in the interpretation of the Bible among various denominations, the true Christian faith believes in leading the life through the path of love and tolerance. It teaches the people to be good and compassionate. Gospels deal with the life of Christ and the religion is centered on the crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the son of God. It is believed, that "Jesus sacrificed his life as a ransom for many". Four books about the life of Jesus became New Testament and the Christian theologians rely heavily on the Gospels. Christianity slowly spread to Syria, Mesopotamia, Asia Minor and Egypt. Over a few decades, this religion gained enormous popularity and it became dominant by the 4th century. Missionary work and colonization, led to the spread of Christianity to Indian sub continent, America, Australasia, Sub-Saharan Africa and other parts of the world. The Christian preachers' work, as taught by Christ's teachings, centered around the ideology of serving others; Christians established health centers, churches, educational establishments, orphanages and shelters for the homeless. Jesus had 12 disciples or Apostles who were responsible for taking the Gospels across the globe to preach Christianity. St. Thomas, one of the disciples of Christ arrived in India in AD 52 and reached the western Malabar coast to spread Christianity among the natives The misconception that Christianity was introduced to India after the arrival of Europeans towards the end of 1400s still persists. It was in AD 52 the Apostle St. Thomas brought Christianity to India and as part of his zealous missionary work he established Seven and Half Churches (in Malayalam: Ezharappallikal) that is actually Eight Churches across the western coast (coastal Malabar) of India in the land now called Kerala. St. Thomas arrived in Kodungallur and established the Eight Churches and evangelized in present-day Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Many of these churches came up near Jewish settlements where Jewish community had been living there for some time engaged in trades. These were 01. Ezharappallikal at Maliankara (Kodungallur), 02. Kollam, 03. Niranam, 04. Nilackal (Chayal), 05. Kokkamangalam, 06. Kottakkayal (Paravoor or Kottakkavu), 07. Palayoor (Chattukulangara) and 08 Thiruvithamkode (Kanyakumari). Among them the one at Maliankara is considered as first church. The Church near Kanyakumari was a small one, Arappally means Half Church. St. Thomas lived in India for 17 years: 4 years in Sindh (now in Pakistan), about 6 years in Malabar Coast and 7 years at Mylapore in Tamil Nadu where he was martyred. His Mortal remains are in St.Thome Church in Mylapore, Chennai. The Indian Postal Service of the Government of India brought out two commemorative stamps, in 1964 and 1973, in honor of the historic arrival of St. Thomas in India in 52 AD. "My lord and my God". Jesus then said, "Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed". Doubting Thomas Thomas the Apostle ( Didymus) A doubting Thomas is a skeptic who refuses to believe without direct personal experience — a reference to the Gospel of John 's depiction of the Apostle Thomas , who, in John's account, refused to believe the resurrected Jesus had appeared to the ten other apostles until he could see and feel Jesus's crucifixion wounds . Saint Thomas Christians According to Syrian Christian tradition, Thomas was killed with a spear at St. Thomas Mount in Chennai on 3 July in AD 72, and his body was interred in Mylapore. Doubting Thomas was skeptical at first when he heard that Jesus had risen from the dead and appeared to the other apostles, saying, "Except I shall see on his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe." But when Jesus appeared later and invited Thomas to touch his wounds and behold him, Thomas showed his belief by saying, "My lord and my God". Jesus then said, "Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. "Except I shall see on his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe." Fortaleza da São Tomé The Fortaleza da São Tomé, also known as Cranganore Fort or Kottapuram Fort, is situated in Kodungallur of Thrissur District in Kerala , India. It was of 18 feet in thickness and was made of laterite . The stone fort was built by the Portuguese in 1523 and was named after Thomas the Apostle . The fort was enlarged in 1565 and passed into the hands of the Dutch in 1663, who destroyed the fort.] Kottapuram Fort was an important part of the Nedumkotta fort built by Travancore under the leadership of Eustachius Benedictus de Lenoy to defend against Tipu Sultan. According to traditional accounts, Thomas is believed to have left northwest India when an attack threatened and traveled by vessel to the Malabar Coast, possibly visiting southeast Arabia and Socotra en route, and landing at the former flourishing port of Muziris (modern-day North Paravur and Kodungalloor) (c. AD 50) in the company of a Jewish merchant Abbanes/Habban (Schonfield, 1984,125). From there he is said to have preached the gospel throughout the Malabar coast. The various churches he founded were located mainly on the Periyar River and its tributaries and along the coast, where there were Jewish colonies. In accordance with apostolic custom, Thomas ordained teachers and leaders or elders, who were reported to be the earliest ministry of the Malankara Church. Church of Saint Thomas, Mosul The church is dedicated to Saint Thomas the Apostle and is believed to have been constructed on the site of the house that the saint resided in during his stay in Mosul, The church is first mentioned in 770 as part of a grievance to Caliph Al-Mahdi. The current structure suggests it was built in the 13th century. The church was damaged during Shahanshah Nader Shah's siege of Mosul as part of the Ottoman–Persian War of 1743–1746, and was subsequently renovated in 1744 by Cyril George, metropolitan bishop of Hattakh, with the permission of the Ottoman Sultan Mahmud ,It was later renovated again in 1848] The Mar Touma Syriac-Orthodox church in Mosul Legend has it that the Mar Touma Syriac-Orthodox church in Mosul was built on the site of the house where Saint Thomas was offered hospitality on his journey to India.The building, which is today found in the heart of the old city, was originally located outside of the walls of Mosul, built in 640. Its history is a complex one, as it was built in successive phases over the 7th, 18thand 14thcenturies. More than a mere church, it is a complex five-nave architectural ensemble composed of two, or possibly even three, parallel churches, separated by arches with octagonal columns. This tripartite architectural ensemble finds continuity and unity in form of the sanctuary which spans the north to the south with no separations. A total of eight royal doors separate the five-nave sanctuary.

Nilakkal Church Nilackal St. Thomas Ecumenical Church According to Ramban Pattu St.Thomas lived in Nilakkal for a year. Nilakkal is known as Chayal in certain documents. This was once a prominent city and commercial centre. Even now there are trade routes from here to Tamil Nadu through Sabarimala. During the 6th century, people fearing dacoits, are believed to have fled to Kanjirapally, Ranni, Thumbamon, Vadasserikara, and Erumeli. Remnants of Christian churches have been found in the forests. The present church stands on the land allotted by the Government in 1976. Kokkamangalam Church This is a Christian dominated area on the coast near Pallipuram in Cherthala. St. Thomas is believed to have lived here for a year and converted 1,600 persons to Christianity.

Nilackal Church: A Historical and Spiritual Landmark Nilakkal St. Thomas Ecumenical Church, also known as Nilakkal Church, is another historic church in Kerala with deep roots in the early Christian history of the region. According to the ancient hymn "Ramban Pattu," St. Thomas, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ, lived in Nilakkal for a year, establishing the foundations of Christianity in the area. Nilakkal, referred to as Chayal in certain historical documents, was once a thriving city and commercial hub. Historical Significance In its heyday, Nilakkal was an important center for trade, with routes that extended to Tamil Nadu through the Sabarimala hills. However, during the 6th century, the area faced threats from dacoits, prompting the inhabitants to flee to safer locations such as Kanjirapally, Ranni, Thumbamon, Vadasserikara, and Erumeli. This migration led to the decline of Nilakkal as a major settlement. Despite this exodus, remnants of early Christian churches have been discovered in the surrounding forests, bearing silent testimony to the once-flourishing Christian community in Nilakkal. These archaeological findings highlight the historical and cultural significance of the region in the spread of Christianity in Kerala.

St. Thomas Syro-Malabar Church, Malayattoor: A Site of Pilgrimage and History The pilgrimage to Malayattoor One of the famous pilgrim centres in Kerala, Malayattoor is located on the slopes of the picturesque Western Ghats, 52 kms from Kochi beside the Periyar River. 'Malayattoor' literally means the meeting place of land, mountain and river. It is the first pilgrim centre in India to be accorded international status by the Holy See, the official seat of the Vatican. It is also the largest pilgrim centre in the name of St. Thomas in India. Thousands of pilgrims of all castes and creed undertake the pilgrimage to St. Thomas church, located on top of the hillock Kurishumudi (hill of the holy cross) during the annual festival -Malayattoor Perunnal held in March/April, 8 days after Easter. There are two churches in Malayattoor dedicated to St. Thomas, one of the 12 apostles of Jesus Christ - one on top of the hillock (Kurishumudi) and the other below. Malayattoor St. Thomas Parish Church or Thazathe Palli (the church below) was built in AD 900. The church facade has the traditional Roman architecture but the altar is typically Greek in style. Behind the central altar there are carved designs and paintings including the five stations of joyful mysteries of Lord Jesus Christ. The church divided into three wings have separate facilities for confession and adoration. There is an ancient baptismal pond and a traditional pulpit which are of historical relevance. The pilgrimage to Malayattoor traces back its origin to the visit of the saint to Kerala in AD 52. It is believed that it was St. Thomas who brought Christianity to Kerala. According to the legends, when the saint first came to Malayatoor he had to face a very hostile reception and was forced to flee to the top of the mountain. There he prayed intensely for days together making sign of the cross on the rock. It is believed that Mother Mary appeared to console and strengthen him. Later at this spot on the rock, a golden cross was found. Thus the hillock came to be known as 'Ponnin Kurishumudi' (hill of the golden cross). Nearby the saints footprints and marks of his knees were also found on the rock. Kurishumudi is located 2km south from Malayattoor St. Thomas Parish Church or Thazathe Palli. The church on top of Kurishumudi was built in 1893 over the golden cross, at 1269 feet above sea level and can be reached only on foot. Near the Golden cross, a little below there are the footprints (Kaalpadam) of the great saint embedded in the hard rock. The footprints are protected in a glass encasing. Pilgrims pray here to receive favours and miracle cures from the saint. Towards the east the ruins (a wall )of an ancient chapel (Aana Kuthiya Palli) still remains, but one can find the bearings of the tuskers who tried to demolish it when the place used to be surrounded by thick jungle. This was the first building to be built on top of the hill in 1595. Now a new small shrine is erected in its place with the ruined wall of the ancient church protected in a glass encasing. A miraculous well situated near the ancient chapel is believed to be the spot from where St. Thomas quenched his thirst during his time of prayer. Legend says that the saint feeling thirsty, struck the rock from which fresh water started flowing. Pilgrims consider the water in the well to possess divine power to heal ailments. Located at the peak of the mount the Marthoma Mandapam, an attractive building carved in accordance with Greco-Indian architecture preserves the precious relics and a statue of St. Thomas. The building is erected in such a way that the relic is placed twenty steps above the ground which symbolizes the twenty years of St Thomas's missionary works in South India. Sannidhi, a spacious place for worship with a capacity to accommodate 10,000 people is located at the northern most part of the mount. Piyatha sculpture moulded at the top is the main attraction of Sannidhi. Marthoma Bhavan here was erected in 1972 to commemorate the 19th death anniversary of St. Thomas. St. Thomas Syro-Malabar Church, located in Malayattoor, Kerala, is a revered site believed to be closely associated with St. Thomas, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ. This church is a significant place of worship and pilgrimage, attracting thousands of devotees and history enthusiasts annually. Historical Significance According to tradition, St. Thomas returned to the Malankara coast via Malayattoor, where he established a small Christian community known as ‘the half church,’ dependent on the Church of Maliamkara. This community laid the early foundations for Christianity in the region. The Legend of St. Thomas Oral traditions recount that while traveling through Malayattoor, St. Thomas faced hostility from the natives. Fleeing to the hilltop, he spent time in intense prayer. It is believed that during his prayer, he left his footprint on one of the rocks. According to local beliefs, he also touched a rock from which blood miraculously poured, signifying his deep spiritual connection with the place. These miraculous events have made Malayattoor a site of immense religious significance.

SCROLL DOWN ABOUT INDIA ABOUT INDIA ABOUT INDIA ABOUT INDIA It’s natural to look beautiful, the land where beauty is redefined in itself. Once upon a time, in the vibrant tapestry of our world, there existed a land so enchanting that it captured the hearts of all who beheld it. This land was India, a place where the moonlight whispered secrets to the trees and dreams wove themselves into the fabric of everyday life. Mark Twain, a legendary storyteller, once marveled at India, proclaiming, “The world is the body and India is its life.” To Twain, and to countless others, India was not just a country, but a living, breathing entity that infused the world with its spirit. “India is the one land that all men desire to see,” Twain wrote, “and having seen once, by even a glimpse, would not give that glimpse for all the shows of all the rest of the globe combined.” This is indeed Incredible India! A land where dreams and romance dance in harmony with tigers and elephants, where the cobra slithers through the jungle and the air is thick with the prayers of a thousand religions to two million gods. India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great-grandmother of traditions. In India, the pursuit of external beauty is a trivial concern. Here, beauty emanates naturally, from the smile in one’s heart and the graceful way one moves through the world. Erin Reese captured this essence perfectly, reflecting on her experiences and the effortless beauty she witnessed among the people she met. The richness of India’s land is unparalleled. It is a place where lush beauty and exotic architecture stand as testaments to its grandeur. The senses are overwhelmed by the pure, concentrated intensity of colors, smells, tastes, and sounds. Each moment in India is a feast for the senses, a vivid experience that leaves an indelible mark on the soul. The great scientist Albert Einstein once remarked, “We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made.” Indeed, the contributions of India to the world are immeasurable, a testament to its profound influence on human civilization. In this wondrous land, Christone Holidays invites travelers to explore the enchanting beauty of India. Whether it’s kissing trees in the moonlight, wandering through ancient temples, or immersing oneself in the vibrant culture, Christone Holidays promises an experience that will touch your heart and soul. Come, discover the magic of India, a land where every moment is a story waiting to be told, every sight a memory waiting to be cherished. This is the story of India, a land where the spirit of the world thrives, a place of dreams and romance, history and legend. This is incredible India, waiting to welcome you with open arms. The region surrounding southeast of the Indus River was referred to simply as "India" In many historical sources, the region surrounding southeast of the Indus River was referred to simply as "India". Historians continue to use this term to refer to the whole of the Indian subcontinent in discussions of history up until the era of the British Raj. During this period, "India" came to refer to a distinct political entity that later became a nation-state. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the term subcontinent signifies a "subdivision of a continent which has a distinct geographical, political, or cultural identity" and also a "large land mass somewhat smaller than a continent". Its use to signify the Indian subcontinent is evidenced from the early twentieth century when most of the territory was either part of the British Empire or allied with them. It was a convenient term to refer to the region comprising both British India and the princely states. The term has been particularly common in the British Empire and its successors, while the term South Asia is the more common usage in Europe and North America. According to historians Sugata Bose and Ayesha Jalal, the Indian subcontinent has come to be known as South Asia "in more recent and neutral parlance". Indologist Ronald B. Inden argues that the usage of the term South Asia is becoming more widespread since it clearly distinguishes the region from East Asia. While South Asia, a more accurate term that reflects the region's contemporary political demarcations, is replacing the Indian subcontinent, a term closely linked to the region's colonial heritage, as a cover term, the latter is still widely used in typological studies. Since the Partition of India, citizens of Pakistan (which became independent of British India in 1947) and Bangladesh (which became independent of Pakistan in 1971) often perceive the use of the Indian subcontinent as offensive and suspicious because of the dominant placement of India in the term. As such it is being increasingly less used in those countries. Meanwhile, many Indian analysts prefer to use the term because of the socio-cultural commonalities of the region. The region has also been called the "Asian subcontinent", the "South Asian subcontinent", as well as "India" or "Greater India" in the classical and pre-modern sense. Greater India Greater India Greater India Greater India Greater India, also known as the Indian cultural sphere, or the Indic world, is an area composed of many countries and regions in South, East Asia and Southeast Asia that were historically influenced by Indian culture, which itself formed from the various distinct indigenous cultures of these regions. The Indian subcontinent & Southern Asia The Indian subcontinent is a physiographical region in Southern Asia, mostly situated on the Indian Plate, projecting southwards into the Indian Ocean from the Himalayas. Geopolitically, it spans major landmasses from the countries of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Nepal,] Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Although the terms "Indian subcontinent" and "South Asia" are often used interchangeably to denote the region, the geopolitical term of South Asia frequently includes Afghanistan, which is not considered part of the subcontinent. Geologically, the subcontinent originates from Insular India, an isolated landmass that rifted from the supercontinent of Gondwana during the Cretaceous and merged with the landmass of Eurasia nearly 55 million years ago, forming the Himalayas. Historically, as well as to the present day, it is and has been the most populated region in the world, holding roughly 20–25 percent of the global population at all times in history. Geographically, it is the peninsular region in Southern Asia located below the Third Pole, delineated by the Himalayas in the north, the Hindu Kush in the west, and the Indo-Burman Ranges in the east. The neighboring geographical regions around the subcontinent include the Tibetan Plateau to the north, the Indochinese Peninsula to the east, and the Iranian Plateau to the west and the Indian Ocean to the south. The Indian subcontinent- Geology The Indian subcontinent was formerly part of Gondwana, a supercontinent formed during the late Neoproterozoic and early Paleozoic. Gondwana began to break up during the Mesozoic, with Insular India separating from Antarctica 130-120 million years ago and Madagascar around 90 million years ago, during the Cretaceous. Insular India subsequently drifted northeastwards, colliding with the Eurasian Plate nearly 55 million years ago, during the Eocene, forming the Indian subcontinent. The zone where the Eurasian and Indian subcontinent plates meet remains geologically active, prone to major earthquakes. Physiographically, it is a peninsular region in South Asia delineated by the Himalayas in the north, the Hindu Kush in the west, and the Arakanese in the east.It extends southward into the Indian Ocean with the Arabian Sea to the southwest and the Bay of Bengal to the southeast.Most of this region rests on the Indian Plate and is isolated from the rest of Asia by large mountain barriers. Laccadive Islands, Maldives and the Chagos Archipelago are three series of coral atolls, cays and Faroes on the Indian plate along with the Chagos–Laccadive Ridge, a submarine ridge that was generated by the northern drift of the Indian Plate over the Reunion hotspot during the Cretaceous and early Cenozoic times. The Maldives archipelago rises from a basement of volcanic basalt outpourings from a depth of about 2000 m forming the central part of the ridge between Laccadives and the Great Chagos Bank. Ancient Indian History Prehistoric Age The time where there was no writing and development, it consists of five period. Paleolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic & Iron Age: Prehistory is the period that begins with the appearance of the human being, about five million years ago, and finishes with the invention of writing, about 6,000 years ago. It is a long period divided into three stages: the Paleolithic Age, the Neolithic Age and the Metal Age. Paleolithic (Old Stone Age), Mesolithic (Middle Stone Age), Neolithic (New Stone Age), this era is marked by the use of tools by our early human ancestors (who evolved around 300,000 B.C.) and the eventual transformation from a culture of hunting and gathering to farming.

It began with the formation of the earth about 4.53 billion years ago, and ended about 542 million years... The Precambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic Eras The Precambrian is the earliest part of Earth's history, set before the current Phanerozoic Eon. The Precambrian is so named because it preceded the Cambrian, the first period of the Phanerozoic eon, which is named after Cambria, the Latinised name for Wales, where rocks from this age were first studied. The Precambrian Era comprises all of geologic time prior to 600 million years ago. The Precambrian was originally defined as the era that predated the emergence of life in the Cambrian Period., The Paleozoic Era spans almost 200 million years from 542 to 251 million years ago. It is defined by great explosion of life at the beginning of the era and ends with the largest mass extinction in the history of our planet. The Mesozoic Era is an interval of geological time from about 252 to 66 million years ago. It is also called the Age of Reptiles and the Age of Conifers… During the Mesozoic, or "Middle Life" Era, life diversified rapidly and giant reptiles, dinosaurs and other monstrous beasts roamed the Earth. The period, which spans from about 252 million years ago to about 66 million years ago, was also known as the age of reptiles or the age of dinosaurs. The Cenozoic Era meaning "new life" is the current and most recent of the three geological eras of the Phanerozoic Eon. It follows the Mesozoic Era and extends from 66 million years ago to the present day.
