Gaura-kishora Dasa Babaji

In honor of the disappearance day of Srila Gaura-kishora Dasa Babaji Maharaja, the spiritual master of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura, we have compiled a few articles that highlight his life and teachings. Babaji Maharaja displayed an incredible level of renunciation from this material world, giving just enough attention to his body to maintain his life. While such an example should not be cheaply imitated, it serves to instruct sincere devotees of Krishna on the path of selfless devotional service.

Divine Madness

“I offer my respectful obeisances unto Gaura-kishora Dasa Babaji Maharaja, who is renunciation personified. He is always merged in a feeling of separation and intense love of Krishna.”
