401 East 86th Street 20A, New York 10028 212-534-6090 GURUDEV SHREE CHITRABHANUJI'S MESSAGE The news of the unexpected departure of the soul of Acharya Sushil Kumarji to Devalok was a shock to hear. His presence I miss very much. In 1975, when he first came to America, I welcomed him for our mission to bring the light of Jainism and Ahimsa to the Western World. He was a source of inspiration to innumerable people. Though he was suffering from heart pain, he continued to work day and night for Ahimsa and Unity. Even when he was tired, he travelled tirelessly for his mission. He was a man of persistence. He autographed his time with his dynamic service and loving kindness. Through his spirit he will continue to inspire many. I wish that all will unite together and continue his unfinished work to fulfill some of his unrealized dreams.
23 J 1994 श्री सौभाग्य मुनिजी
हमें यह जानकर जपार कष्ट हुआ कि आधार्य मुनि श्री तुभील कुमार जी का कल अपराहन निधन हो गया है। उनके निधन से विश्व ने एक महान जाध्यात्मिक विभूति तथा मानव मैत्री एवं अहिंसा के अगदा को खो दिया है, जिनका सारा जीवन जनता के नैतिक आध्यात्मिक तथा सामाजिक कल्याण के लिये समर्पित था।
हमने तो अपने अभिन्न मित्र को खोया परन्तु भारत ने रक्त राष्ट्र निकट सर्व प्रेमी परन्तु स्वधर्म के मनस्वी एवं मानवता के के मूल्यों के पुजारी को खो दिया, जिसकी प्रति निकट भविष्य में संभव नहीं दीखती है।
भारत साध समाच एते महान आध्यात्मिक नेता के प्रति अपनी माजलो अर्पित करता है और नयी पीढ़ी ते आशा करता है कि वह अहिंसा, राष्ट्र भक्ति एवं मानव मंत्री की भावना को अपनाकर मुनि जी के मादशों का पालन करेगी। ऐसे महान आध्यामिक विभति के प्रति भारत का साधु समाज अपनी अदांजली अर्पित करता है।
Acharya Sushil Kumar, with his most wonderful qualities of head and heart, endeared himself to many. He was truly the beloved of many hearts. He was a philosophical friend and guide to many who now must feel orphaned. He was a source of love, joy, and peace to many. Many anchored their lives to him. He was the support and solace of many. He took many with him on the path of new life. He kindled the light of India's sages and saints in many souls. Who so came to him was abundantly blessed. Our dear ones do not die. They but “Go Before" us. We, too, shall one day follow them. We shall meet them again,-somewhere, somewhen. For life is endless, and time is but a shadow of eternity. The candle of the lord is aglow in every heart. And deep down within us is our true life,-a loving thought, a gentle look, a deep longing for the life divine. J.P. Vaswani
। म.स्वामी हरिनारायणानन्द WROOROUOCLORUROCZYWR2 "...Our homage to Acharyaji for uniting all religions of the world and his tireless work in spreading Bhagwan Mahavir's message of Ahimsa in foreign countries...". Bandhu Triputi, Teethal, India
Acharya Ji dedicated his life for cause of all forms of life. His message was one - we are all one. He translated Jainism into environment and respect for all beings. I will continue to support and further his endeavors by taking out Ahimsa-Shakahar Rath to tour all corners of the World. Pt. Dharam Chand Shastri - India
I have lost my brother - The Dalai Lama ...an apostle of peace through non-violence. Having known him for sometime, His Holiness feels that the passing away of Acharya Sushil Muni is a great loss to India in particular and the world in general. Secretary to His Holiness The Dalai Lama Tenzin-Geyche Tethong

The loss of such a spiritual luminary is not limited to his followers but to the entire nation as well as humanity as a whole; for the values he embodied were universal. He was a champion of non-violence, and worked relentlessly to bring peace between different countries and communities, diverse cultures and ideologies. He and Pujya Pramukh Swani Maharaj were intimate friends. His Divine Holiness Pramukh Swami Maharaj (Swami Narayanswarupdas)
