Khannan
This is to inform the community that our long-term brother and friend, Aurovilian R. Khannan, passed away on Friday morning, August 8th, in his home at Meera Youth Camp at the age of 71.
As early as 1970, Khannan came from Abbhai Singh's workshop in the Ashram to Auroville, and has since then been living and working and fighting for Auroville, fasting under the Banyan Tree and going to prison for Auroville. Many people remember him as the driver in Auroville, especially in the early years of Berijam Nature Camp. These last years Khannan was the caretaker of Meera Youth Camp.
His body remained overnight in his family house in Kuilyapalayam, after which it was cremated on Saturday 9th at the Kuilyapalayam mandappam.
Khannan will be missed by many of his friends. Our condolences go out to his wife Sathyavath, his two daughters Uschi and Shanti and his son Muthu, as well as to his in-laws and grandchildren.
Thank you, Khannan!
OM~
