Sri Gaura Kishora Dasa Babaji Maharaja

After the death of his wife in 1849 he left grihasta life. He went to Vrindavana. He took initiation from Sri Bhagavata Dasa Babaji, a disciple of Sri Jagannatha Dasa Babaji. He would chant 200,000 names of Krishna every day (128 rounds of japa). He spent 30 years in Vrindavana living under the trees at Nandagram, Varsana, Govardhana, Radha Kunda, Surya Kunda, Raval and Gokula. After thirty years in Vrindavana he went to Sri Navadvipa Dhama to see the pastime places of Lord Caitanya. He accepted one disciple, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura. He left his body on 19 November 1915. His samadhi is on the bank of Sri Caitanya Math’s Radha Kunda, in Mayapur.
