Babajhi was a great instrument in my life growing up. He performed Satnarayan KATHa every year for me, and taught me the true meaning of God. He will be sadly missed by me and my entire family. I'm praying that he arrived safely in the abode of lord Krishna.

Hoping and praying that babajhi arrives safely in Lord Krinsna's abode. He taught me so much as a little boy, and I'm holding his teachings close to my heart. He will be sadly missed. Jai shree Krishna babajhi.

We were blessed to have had Dr. Kumar in our lives. He was affectionally know to us by Babajhi. His teachings will forever dwell in our hearts. Mere words cannot express our loss of such a great Guru.
