Basil was born to a strongly Christian family, his parents are both revered as saints in the Eastern Orthodox churches, as were his brothers St. Gregory of Nyssa and St. Peter of Sebaste.
He was educated at home and then studied in Constantinople and Athens, where he met Gregory Nazianzen. They both entered a Christian community at Pontus, where Basil developed his teachings concerning monasticism.

He's accountable for organizing back-seat MP's to attack leading Cabinet Ministers such as @UPGammanpila , @weerawansa_w & Vasudeva N . BR, who does not even have a degree is going to be in charge of the finance ministry of #SriLanka just bcz his brother is now president.(2/4)
BR is more famously known as Mr. 10 % due to his long history of corruption. He used to demand 10% commission from every project. There is no wonder why Pres Kumaratunge called the Rajapaksa's " uneducated and uncultured rascals".
