This book is a humble attempt to reconstruct and deconstruct the forgotten past of the Hindu-Christians of India. It is an anthology on the origin, history, and development of the indigenous Malankara Nasrani Christian community. The author attempts a critical analysis of the St.Thomas tradition by providing an alternative perspective that focuses on the Judeo-Dravidian origins of the Malankara Nasrani Community. The author boldly states that the Nasranis are not Syriac Christians, rather they are 'Syriacised' Christians, and that the Malankara Church is not an offshoot of Syriac Christianity. The book also sheds light on the lost practices of the Malankara Nasrani community.
