Washington: Donald Trump was shot before the US presidential election. Donald Trump narrowly escaped in this shooting. Donald Trump was shot on Saturday (local time) when he was addressing an election rally in Pennsylvania. The bullet grazed his ear and passed through. Blood stains were seen on his face. ISKCON has issued a statement regarding the attack on Donald Trump.
ISKCON believes that his life was saved because of Lord Jagannath. On this incident, ISKCON has recalled Donald Trump’s connection with the first Rath Yatra in New York in 1976. Then Donald Trump showed a big heart for Lord Jagannath’s Rath Yatra and helped. ISKCON believes that Trump’s life was saved because of that help.
Radharaman Das, Vice President of ISKCON Kolkata, has described Donald Trump’s narrow escape as divine grace. He believes that Donald Trump’s life was saved by the grace of Lord Jagannath. He said, ‘In July 1976, ISKCON devotees were looking for a large place to build the chariot of Lord Jagannath. Then Donald Trump helped them by giving his train yard for free. Today, on the day of Rath Yatra, Lord Jagannath has returned the favor.’
Donald Trump was 30 years old then. At that time, he was emerging as a real estate businessman. It was only with the help of Donald Trump that the first Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath could be taken out on Fifth Avenue in New York in 1976. It was not easy to find a large empty space near Fifth Avenue in New York, where chariots could be built.
At that time, ISKCON devotees, who were planning to celebrate the organisation’s 10th foundation day with a grand rath yatra in New York, sought help from everyone possible, but to no avail. It was only Donald Trump who came forward and offered his space in this hour of crisis.
