A mother in Durban is desperately seeking news about her daughter, Terricia Govender, who went missing during a flash flood in Nepal. The 33-year-old was on a pilgrimage with the Isha Foundation when the disaster occurred. Terricia had been eagerly anticipating the trip for months and celebrated her 33rd birthday along with Sadhguru.

The family last heard from Terricia on Tuesday while she was out shopping and sightseeing.
