Krishna Keshava Departs

 



Hare Krishna. All glories to Srila Prahbupada.
It is with a heavy heart that I am informing you my son Krishna Keshava Burns was killed in a motorcycle accident on Sunday, April 23, 2023 evening in Alachua. He and we were fortunate that Balarama Smith saw it and went to him to chant Lord Nrishimhadeva prayers before his demise.

Balaram also placed his Lord Nrsimhadeva pendant and beads on Keshava’s body before his soul departed. Miraculously, another devotee appeared at the scene of the accident from nowhere and chanted Hare Krishna to Keshava. We would appreciate it if that would identify himself to us so that we can thank him. Please ask the assembled devotees to keep Keshava in their prayers. Haribooool!
More details to follow regarding Funeral and Memorial services.

PADA: Very tragic, since I believe this is the third fatal young devotee motorcycle accident this year. I get it, when you are young, you think you are immortal and you can do risky things and get away with it. I was like that myself, I even had a couple of motorcycles back in the day.

Then again, other drivers do not even see motorcycles half the time, and they might run into you. Basically, when you are on a motorcycle, you are not well protected and bad things can happen quickly if you are involved in a crash. My best friend in High School broke his spine hitting a guard rail on his bike, and it was devastating.

Anyway, he has moved on from here and he is no longer worried about motorcycles. So we wish him all the best. God speed spirit soul! ys pd
