See the double standards of "Metran kakshi". See here

 

 When our beloved HH visited his beloved children in India the said "metran kakashi" gone with a case to prevent HH from visiting India.

 

The same said catholicose and team of "Metran Kakshi" went and begged to offer Holy Mass at St.Mark's Syrian Orthodox Church at "Sehion Malika"  which belongs to Syrian Orthodox Church under HH Ignatius Sakka Iwas 1st, Patriarch of Antioch and all the east. Our holy church with a brotherly approach gave permission for them to offer prayers at St. Mark's Syrian Orthodox church. This is the difference between our Holy church and the "Devalokam trust". (This happened in 2006) .

 

Each of the pilgrims approaches one of three priests at the front of the chapel who offer absolution and a blessing. Even Archbishop Coorilos of Bombay(Metran Kakshi bishop) comes forward in all humility to avail himself of this ministry.

 

If IOC hate "FOREIGN" why they offered prayer there????  A simple instance showing "Metran Kakshi's" materialistic thoughts.
