Guest guest Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Sri Vrindavan Dhama, 13-Oct-2006 Dear Devotees, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. This early morning at about 4:20 am H.H. Lokanath Swami has met with a car accident. This happened on the Vrindavan Chatikara Road, about 5 km from our ISKCON temple in Vrindavan. As part of the Vraja Mandala Parikrama, Guru Maharaja was going to participate in the Govardhana Parikrama. A tree had fallen down on the road. The driver tried his best to avoid the tree in the darkness, but the car started to skid and turned over. Guru Maharaja's left hand got stuck under the car. Although nothing was broken, he got injured in his left hand and a little bit on his head H.H. Kavicandra Swami was also traveling in the car. Maharaja only got some scratches and bruises in his left hand. Other devotees in the car were Guru Maharaja's disciples Sankirtana das, Abhinandana das, Balakrsna das and Bhakta Pravin. All the devotees were brought quickly to the nearby hospital. Fortunately none of the devotees were seriously injured. They got off with a fright and some bruises here and there. Guru Maharaja's left hand was stitched at three places and also his head at one place. Further he is doing well and has to take some rest for a while. Later during the day a CT scan was taken of all the devotees at the hospital but no internal damages were found. The front and left side windows of the car shattered and the left and front side of the car was damaged. Please pray for the early recovery of Guru Maharaja and of all the concerned devotees. Your servant, Premanjana das Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
