Guest guest Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Please pray for our departed god brothers and try to help financially if you can. ISKCON New Talavan Community [talavan (AT) mypicayune (DOT) com] Tuesday, August 09, 2005 5:30 PM newtalavan Cc: news (AT) chakra (DOT) org; news (AT) dipika (DOT) org; news (AT) vnn (DOT) org Seven New Orleans Devotees in Van Crash Dear Devotees and Friends of New Talavan, Hare Krsna! With great regret, it is our duty to inform you about a serious car accident affecting seven devotees from New Orleans yatra. They were returning from the LA Rathayatra Festival when the accident occurred near El Paso, Texas. Here is a link to a local HYPERLINK "http://elpasotimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050809/NEWS/508090328/1001 "newspaper report describing the accident. Mani Bandha Prabhu has left his body, and Saci Dulal Prabhu is in very critical condition in the Intensive Care unit of Thomason Hospital (915)521-7700. It is not yet known whether Saci will survive. Antaratma Prabhu (Ashis Halder) is presently unconscious and in serious condition at Beaumont Hospital (915) 569-2121 and (915) 569-1717 for ICU, and will probably remain in hospital for at least 6 weeks. Mathura (Manas Mandal), Divya Gopal (Dibyendu Jana), Uttama (Uttama Pal), Saci Dulal (Sacin Ray), and Topi (Tapan Mandal) are in satisfactory condition and doctors expect them to be released from hospital within 24-48 hours. Yogindra Prabhu, Mother Maharani, Sarvajaya Gauranga and Makhanchor Prabhus have driven to El Paso to make funeral arrangements for Saci Dulal Prabhu and to take care of the others. We have an urgent need for emergency funds to take care of this devastating situation. Air tickets are extremely expensive, and as of now we do not have the means to bring these devotees home and take proper care of them. We also need funds to cover the cremation of Mani Bandha's body. To donate or help out in other ways, please contact Dasanudas Vanacari at this email address or the phone number below. Thank you very much for any assistance, and please keep these devotees in your prayers. _____ ISKCON New Talavan Community Founder-Acharya: His Divine Grace A.C.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 for those who cannot access that site, this is what the article says: Man killed after van rolls over near Tornillo Daniel Borunda El Paso Times A man was killed when he was among five passengers thrown from a van that rolled over Monday morning on Interstate 10 East about 10 miles east of Tornillo, the Texas Department of Public Safety said. A 1998 Honda van, carrying seven people, with Louisiana plates rolled when the driver, Manas Mandal, 37, lost control after a problem with the right rear tire, a state trooper said. Five men, ages 28 to 38, in the back seat were thrown from the van. The survivors, including Mandal, were taken in serious or critical condition to Thomason Hospital.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 This is very sad news especially as most or all of these devotees are originally from Mayapur Dham and well known to all of us. Please keep us informed as to Sacidulal's condition. I have known him for many years and met him after a long time just a few months ago in Mayapur. I join in the prayers for Mani Bandha Prabhu as well as the other injured devotees. May Krsna protect him and give him a suitable body for further spiritual advancement. Hare Krishna, Your servant, ATD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
