This week was a stumper. No one was able to ID everyone in the photo.

Several people correctly identified one devotee, but no one named the other.

A few people guessed about the horses, but we weren’t able to confirm their names.

Here’s the info we have:

Who (from left to right):

Paramananda (Left, in driver’s seat, wearing blue overalls.)

Unknown (Right, crouched, wearing a red sweater. It was suggested it might be Murari Gupta.)

Horses: Many think it is Tom & John. Others think it might be Ranchor and Saivya.

What: Hauling manure to spread in the fields.
When: Early 1970s
Where: The base of the driveway at Bahulaban, New Vrindaban.

Photographer unknown.

We Need Your Help! If you have a photo showcasing New Vrindaban residents in action, from the ’70s, ’80s, ’90s and ’00s, please send it to us and we can share it in a future posting.
