He lived in the first half of 19th century. The saint was born in Marunthalizhikathu family in Anchal. The exact date of his birth is unknown. According to historic assumptions he was born some time around AD 1770-80. OrdinationHe started his life as a priest in the Kottarakkara church. He used to go 16 km to Kottarakkara by walking from Anchal. Later he moved to the church compound. LifestyleHe used to do all of his work on his own. One day after returning from his morning bath, he saw his elder brother's wife sweeping his room. Standing outside, (without entering the room), he asked for his Bible and other books and he left for Kottarakkara. He stayed the whole of his remaining life at Kottarakkara church. Kottarakkara church made all arrangements for his stay in the premises of the church itself. Death{{POV section|date=August 2017}}Before his death he asked his church people at Kottarakkara church to open his "kabar" on 41st day of his death and will find his body intact position. He died on one "Karkidakam 22". After his death on 41st day the people of Kottarakara church opened the kabar and found the body intact position, except the top of the nose and top of two fingers decayed, the reason for that says-one day he plucked a rose flower before Kurbana) However, later we had lost Kottarakara Church to Marthoma Sabha on litigation. Now it is a Marthomite church. On every Sunday perspiration was seen on the top of the Kabar, as Marthomites have no faith in prayer for departed, one "Kapiar" of Marthoma church removed that perspiration with his legs by saying something, and after that stopped coming of perspiration from that Kabar, never it happened. The Kabar of Anchal achan is situated in the altar of Kottarakkara Marthomite church.
