"Girish has one hundred and twenty-five per cent faith."
  — Sri Ramakrishna

"In G.C. [Girish] alone I have seen that true resignation" — that true spirit of a servant of the Lord... I have not met his parallel. From him I have learnt the lesson of self-surrender.
  — Swami Vivekananda

"If one is in the company of Girish Babu for even five minutes, one gets freed from worldly delusion... He has such keen insight that he can see at a glance the innermost recess of a man's heart, and by virtue of this powerful insight he was able to recognise the Master as an Avatar."
  — Nag Mahashay
