EVANA SURPRISES US

                                                                 EVANA SURPRISES

                                                                           US

                                                         ON 11TH FEBRUARAY 2026

                                                                   



I enquired how she did it.
She replied she had attempted some thing like this a couple of months ago with water colour. She said she had understood it had to be done with paint to be effective. 
Ann, her mother, tells me she didn't buy it, for one, it was expensive, and two, everything would be strewn around in a crowded work space.
She said she finally gave in and ordered what Evana wanted from Insta Mart.
The surprise was, the order was fulfilled in half an hour.
Evana was happy.
She got to work
She was silent
But busy

And after a while she brought her creation to me.
I hugged her.
It was superb.
  She is seven now.  

Here is what she had longed for:




                                                                                 


                                                                                  




HAPPY THE GREY MATTER IS NOT IN THE GREYING MODE

Mr. John Kurien, Former CGM, NABARD

Our close friend at CSI Christ Church, Palayam, Trivandrum was requested by the senior members of the Church to speak on the composition of the 66 Books in the Bible and the Apocripha. He prepared his discourse in English, where he was well conversant. However, though his Malayalam was good, he didn't have the opportunity to express himself in his mother tongue while he had been on his job, as his career had taken him away from Kerala most of the time.

The elderly were insistent the discourse had to be in Malayalam. 

He complied. 

Then he had forwarded to me  the content in both English and Malayalam.

It was a pleasant surprise.

Both the transcripts were superb in quality. 

I commended him for the excellent effort.

The interaction that took place is recorded here.

The brilliance of the great man is in full flow:

..........................


 "I wrote in English

Translation to Malayalam on public demand was tough for me"


"It is comprehensive.

I just wonder how you compiled it

If people can't understand or catch on to it, they are nothing but nincompoops

Translation is tough."

"But my question stays." 

How could you garner the voluminous data in English first?"


"These are some of the Books and literature available to me termed as APOCRIPHA and PSEUDO EPIGRAPH writings during the 400 year Silent Period between the Old and New Testament Period and detailed studies on the above works are not given importance by the Protestant Churches

The Study and time line of the New Testament Period cannot but desert the above works followed by other denominations and churches of the Chrysendom "

."That's why we consider you the finest genius in our Church"

"I did lot of reading and research from books collected from many persons including Mariam Kochamma whom I visit often and mr.K.S.Simon for Apocripha literature

A fine book I saw yesterday written by Rev.K.John ,prof of old testament in KUTS when I was a boy ,yesterday on the Silent Period of the Bible is yet to be read

I read on varied subjects.,recently concentrating on old mal.fiction 5 books each time from Public Library,which are exchanged every week on Tuesdays when I go to Sowhrdom for Thankam"

"Happy the grey matter is not in the greying mode"

EXTRICATE CSI THE CHURCH OF SOUTH INDIA

 


Industrialist Sunjay Kapur (53) had died in London in June last year.

The immense wealth he  has left behind has brought his wife, mother, sister as well his former wife and children into litigation at the Delhi High Court.


After hearing multiple allegations levelled by the Kapur clan against each other, the Delhi High Court has taken a dim view of "the washing of dirty linen in Court."

The HC advised the litigants to go for mediation to resolve their differences and not let God's "blessing of wealth turn into a curse."


Justice Mini Pushkarna asked if there was "any chance of mediation."

She said, " God has blessed you with good financial wealth. At the end of the day, all parties are in pain. They are grieving and all of you suffered. Lead a good life rather than fight."


She further advised, "Sit together. Resolve the issues in a manner, everyone's interest is safeguarded."


"All of you should try to respect relations....Way forward is resolution in a peaceful manner. Efforts need to be from both the sides."


Is this not the CSI's and SKD's problem.


To put it in a nutshell, " It is the desire to appropriate wealth through all devious means and further the hold or grip on the assets of the Church forever that impedes the resolution of issues that threaten to destroy the edifice God has bestowed upon CSI."


The Bible is emphatic. It calls such avaricious people, 'FOOLS'


Perhaps the Courts would have to  finally extricate us from the intricate web we have bound ourselves in.


Perhaps an Armageddon alone would make the impossible, the possible.
