Cassian Sakowicz was born in family of an Orthodox priest as Kalikst Isakowicz.[1] He was born in a town of Podtelisz[2] (today village Potelych, Lviv Oblast), Belz Voivodeship (Palatinatus Belzensis). He finished the Zamojski Academy and Jagiellonian University[2] at the ruler's court in Przemysl, under King Athanasius' protection. Sakowicz was a private teacher of Adam Kisiel and an activist of the Enlightenment movement of Orthodox brotherhood.[2] Sakowicz was the rector of the Orthodox brotherhood school in Kyiv (predecessor of the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy) from 1620 to 1624 where he taught poetry, rhetoric and philosophy.[2] In 1624, he moved to Lublin where he was preaching in an Eastern orthodox brotherhood church.[2] Later Sakowicz entwined his life first with the Uniate Church in 1625 converted to Greek Catholicism (in 1625 to 1639, he was an Uniate archimandrite of the Savior-Transfiguration Monastery in Dubno).[2] In 1641, after arriving to Kraków in 1640[2] and with the permission of Pope Urban VIII, he changed to the Roman rite[2] and was the chaplain of the Augustinian monastery of Saint Catherine in Kraków. Sakowicz died in Kraków in 1647.[3]
