For almost forty years, Shri Krishna Das Babaji (Madrasi) was a well-known figure around Radhakund, the lake of Shri Radha, one of the most sacred places in India for followers of the Chaitanya Vaishnava tradition. Whenever visitors from the West arrived at the site, Krishna Das Baba would meet them and greet them. Since his English was excellent he would give them tours around the holy place and if their stay was to be longer, he would take them under his wing, and show them places to eat, places to stay during their visit, and in general look out for their health and welfare as if they were his own children. Here we have for the first time an account of the life and teachings of Shri Krishna Das Babaji by one of his close disciples, Shri Karunamayi Das (Zakrent Christian).
