Srila Gaur Krishore Das Babaji Maharaj appeared in a merchant family in the early nineteenth century in a village called Bagjan, near Tepakhola on the bank of river Padma in Faridpur district of East Bengal. At the age of 29, he received spiritual initiation from Guru of Advaita inheritance. Spending about 30 years at different places in Vraja Mondal, immersed in blissful devotion, he came over to Sri Gaur Mandal in the year 1894 with the instruction of Srila Jagannath Das Babaji Maharaj. He led a very austere and renounced life like Srila Raghunatha Das Goswami. He sometimes stayed in ‘Swananda Sukhada Kunja’ at Godrum and listened to Bhagvatam discourse from the lips of Thakur Bhakti Vinode. Instead of showing much interest in preaching, he acted the Bhajananandi lila (devotion in solitude).

Srila Gaur Kishore Das Babaji entered his eternal pastime on the day of Utthana Ekadashi of the year 1915 (30^th Kartik, 1322 B.E.). Srila Prabhupad, with his own hand, buried Srila Babaji Maharaj in Kulia of Navadwip. But Srila Babaji Maharaj desired to be buried in Godrum or Mayapur Dham. By his own will, when the Samadhi of Babaji was about to be wash out by the river Ganges, at that time Srila Prabhupad took out the above Samadhi and re-established it in Chaitanya Math of Sridham Mayapur.
