Krishna's plans are ACCIDENTAL
Seemingly, same Saturday morning as usual but little different as he was going out with his family members to another devotee's house. That day on 05th Nov 2016, Krishna had some different plans for him and his family. He left his house at about 11.00 am in the morning in recently bought Hyundai i20 car and started driving through the heavy traffic area of Bangalore. Within an hour he found himself in the mess of a situation where his car was totally toppled, and he and his family members were lying upside down in the toppled car.
Mr Prateek Sanwal ( Initiated name - HG Premadata Gaur Das ), his wife Mrs Deepti Sanwal and son Yash, experienced an almost fatal accidental shock when a truck directly hit his car at a signal and the accident involved the serial hitting of 6 more cars. The car toppled on the footpath breaking the railings of the footpath. The car suffered heavy losses and it was almost a total loss ( in insurance parlance ), it got all around scratches and dents. The car bore all the brunt leaving the entire family physically unharmed . They made their way through one of the door of toppled car. Seeing the condition of toppled car, even a policeman got surprised and said – “How did you all survive?”
When Krishna plans, he plans in an scrutinizingly appealing way, the accident was followed by some hectic schedules for him. He had to run to police stations, to insurance companies to get his claims but Krishna protected him by not disrupting his service. He continues to serve as the Sunday Feast Co-ordinator and as Head of IT department at ISKCON Convention Centre, Benguluru with the same enthusiasm. He recalls - “ Before accident, while driving car, I was thinking about my particular service. The accident could have been fatal but Krishna protected all of us because we are involved in his service. “
Krishna's promise to Arjuna that – “ My devotees never perish” has come true once again.
But this story is an eye-opener for us stressing the fact that Krishna's plans are accidental and we can be subjected to his plans at any time. So its better to keep our finger crossed and serve enthusiastically and keep faith that the reaction of our past karmas get drastically reduced when we are dealing directly with Krishna and his devotees in a positive manner.
