So he [Bhaktisiddhanta] went back [to] [Gaur Kishor Das Babaji] and sat down before his cottage, kuṭīra under open sky tolerating storm, rain, winter, sun; sitting for months, months together there. Crying, crying and sitting there for months together. Do you understand, Hari Mohan?
You have to cry for it like that, yes. Otherwise how can you get mercy? Then Gaur Kishor Das Babaji saw, “Alright now, he has become humble now.” So he showered his mercy, “Alright, alright; you come now. Go and take bath, I will give you initiation.”
So he initiated him in 1900 A.D. in this month of Māgha. His name was Varshbhanavi-devi-dayita Das.
