Mar Sebastian Mankuzhikary (2 March 1929 – 11 June 1994) was the first bishop of the Syro-Malabar Catholic Diocese of Thamarassery (Syro-Malabar Catholic Church) in Kerala, India.
Born in Thanneermukkom, Kerala, he was educated at seminaries in India and ordained a priest on 12 March 1955. He subsequently studied philosophy at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome where he completed his doctoral dissertation in 1959, Metaphysical Vision of Tagore (published posthumously in 2000, ed. Joseph Therattil), a study on the writer, philosopher and Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore.
