Radha Krishna (Gujarati version)

The loving form of Radha Krishna is the ocean of divine bliss

Bina Radhey,Sham Aadhey

Radha Astmi is celebrated in Barsana on 14th September this year (15 days after Janmashtmi) to mark the birth of Radha and cherish the joyous memories of Radhe Krishna and their Leela Ras held at Nandgaon, 4 kms from Barsana. The love of Radhe Krishna flourished to enrich the human souls to reunite and merge into eternity 'Krishna' the Supreme Truth, the Absolute godhead manifested in human form who attract the whole world towards him. Krishna itself means Akarshana (attraction).

When Krishna left Vrindavan, He stated that no matter where He resided physically His spirit would always remain in the land where Radha stayed. He promised Radha that she would forever dwell in His heart. Krishna pledged with Radha that her name would always precede His.Hence one always says "RadheKrishna" never "KrishnaRadhe"

If the name Radha is chanted repeatedly, it turns into the word "Dhara". 'Dhara' means a stream. Radha is the stream of love that emanates from Krishna and returns to Him, emanates and returns, becomes 'dhara' and turns to 'Radha', from 'Radha' to 'dhara' and so on until Eternity.Radha is the Manifested Universe that emanates from the Unmanifest Krishna.
