Bishop Resigns to Become a Hermit

Since becoming a priest, Muricken led a “very simple life.” In 2016, he donated one of his kidneys to a 31-year-old Hindu.
According to media reports, for Muricken, a hermit is a person who contemplates on God and lives “completely in union with nature.”
He plans to have one vegetarian meal a day, “I will cook by myself and use a bed and chair of wood and stone.” There will be a limited possibility to visit him once a month.
Muricken only started wearing shoes after he became an auxiliary bishop.
