Christodoulos Pamplekis was born in 1733 in the village of Babini, Etoloakarnania and was the son of Efstathios. He learned the first letters in his village, probably in the Monastery of Agios Georgios, which was a great spiritual center in the 17th and 18th centuries. From an early age he was orphaned by his mother and at the age of 4 or 5 he contracted smallpox, losing his left eye, while his illness left several scars on his face [1,2]. At a young age he went to Mount Athos and studied at the Athoniada Academy, which was headed at that time by Eugenios Voulgaris (1753-1759).
