Love story had and has and will always have many face and there would be many with many examples but nothing would come anywhere near to Radha and Lord Krishna
Radha : A PURE & SIMPLE soul created by God to represent WOMANISM
There may be a lot of stories about who was Radha and how was she created by the Lord and the nature but there is NEVER a myth that radha was created by the Lord and the universe to represent the most PUREST and the SIMPLEST form of woman symbolizing the FEMINISm of what the woman’s ought to be
Radha, in Hinduism, the gopi milkmaid ie the girls or the ladies whose business of their families was to sell milk, who became the beloved of the god Krishna during that period of his life when he lived among the gopas ie cowherds of Vrindavan.Radha was the wife of another gopa but was the dearest of Krishna's consorts and his constant companion
Devotion of Radha to Krishna : Beyond compareRadha lived in a village called Repalli that was a little away from Vrindavan. Radha was five years elder to Krishna and Krishna took extreme delight in spending time with Radha as her devotion for Krishna was far beyond compare. While the Gopas and Gopikas at Vrindavan pined to stay with Krishna, Krishna would often escape away to Repalli in search of Radha.She was about five years of age elder to Lord Krishna but she was very attached to the Lord and she worshipped the Lord like anything else It was not a compassionate emotional touch with each other but it was like a worship that Radha would do with the Lord in terms of being with her, listening to what the Lord had to say, and following his words that related to devotion to the hilt
Radha : Creation by the Lord to symbolize feminism and about how woman ought to be protected
It was in the heaven that the Lord’s who rule the world according to the Hindu belief were discussing about the change of the phase that the world was going to face The era of Satyug was going to end and there were creature like Dhrithtrarashtra, Duryodhana, and the likes of them were to take their place here at the workd that was to exist then.The Lord’s could forsee what was going to happen to Draupadi . It was about this time that Lord Vishnu incarted in the form of Lord Krishna and he took the permission from Lord Shiva to come to the earth at the area that was joining Mathura and Vrindavan to come in contact with Radha
Radha was an epitome of the SUPREME form of a very simple woman which had OCEAN of LOVE in her but was very innocent Through Radha and her devotion, her love for the Lord, the Lord wanted to describe and exhibit how the ladies in the days to come ought to be RESPECTED, SAVED, PROTECTED and shown the real way to be self esteemed, and taken care of . The story of radha and Lord Krishna is the story of WHAT A PURE LOVE OUGHT TO BE WITHOUT HARMING THE SELF PRESTIGE AND SELF RESPECT OF EACH OTHER
It was all about how a LADY could be LOVED like anything teaching her ALL ABOUT THE DEEP EXTINCT OF LOVE THE VARIOUS FORM OF IT WITHOUT CAUSING ANY DAMAGE TO HER HONOUR AND HER SOCIAL STANDINGS AS WELL AS THE RESPECT
Radha in her all forms and norms represented the WOMANISM in search of companion, respect, LOVE , and protection and Lord Krishna was the Lord who would through Radha preach to the world about what womanism ws, how it needed to be loved not by any physical touch but by the way of words, by the creation of situation where Radha would rush to Lord for protection and the lord would do it and the feelings of Radha would be translated by the Lord in the form of music and would spread this MUSIC OF LOVE through the flute that he had to play
Lord Krishna : The SOUL of Radha
Radha finally believed and said to all the world over that since Krishna had become her very soul, nothing can take away Krishna from her even when he left her physically. There was no much of emotions between them. Krishna had made Radha know the purpose of her divine incarnation as that of demonstrating the power of true devotion and she was firmly committed to her mission in spirit. Krishna silently left the scene and tactfully convinced the Gopas and Gopikas and together with Balrama, left for Mathura with Akrura
Radha : Cursed by Sudama
According to Brahma Vaivart Purana, Sudama, friend of Krishna went to meet Krishna but Radha stopped him and barred him from meeting Krishna. Furious Sudama cursed Radha that she would be forced to take birth in the mortal form on earth and she will have to bear the pain of separation from shri Krishna because she has caused him pain by separating him from his beloved lord and friend.
Their love bloomed on the land of vrindavan which is believed to be the heart of Radharani and the most blessed land in the braj. They performed many leelas here not to forget the Maha-raas leela on the banks of Yamuna. But then came the time when the curse of Sudama started taking the shape. Krishna was about to leave for Mathura to kill Kamsa. Before leaving, Krishna made her give him her word that she would not cry once he is away from her.
Radha, heartbroken and completely devastated, made the promise that she would not cry and won’t shed the tears. Krishna told her that her love is unconditional and he will be indebted to her till the end of time and the
land of braj will always be known as her place and everyone would chant her name instead of Krishna and we can see today that people in vrindavan or braj say radhe radhe while talking or greeting others.
Even rickshaw-wallahs here say radhe radhe to people while riding on the way asking to give the way for rickshaw. Every house or tree in vrindavan has radha’s name written on its wall or trunk. Such was radha’s devotion and pain that Krishna granted her a boon that her name would be taken before that of his.
Negative notions and fallacies : All rumble bumbleness of negativity
A lot of stories and a lot of mouth made nonsensical rounds have made the stories about the Lord and his relation with Radha and the Gopis These do not hold any truth It is all fallacies that runs amock to describe the relation between the lord and Radha
As said and decribed earlier Radha was created by the God’s ruling the universe as a PURE symbol of an innocent soul which represented the womanhood and the feminism Radha in fact was the purest of the pure being who was completely devoted to the Lord and her love to the Lord was supreme She could not see or would not accept anyone to be with the Lord except herself and her friends the Gopis She wanted to be woith the Lord every moment that she lived
She would behave in an manner that ascribed and described the purest form of very natural love to the Lord which she was unaware of The Lord would understand that, fulfil her devotion of love by exhibiting the various forms of leelas ie the different form of love that the God has made for the universe and educate her what love in pure was meant and how should it be accepted and exhibited The feelings that came out from Radha and the Gopis would be translated by the Lord and he would spread that as a message to the world through the flute
The music that would come out of the flute would imprison and encompass the entire world to feel what love is Brotherhood, universal love for each other and many such feelings would come out of the flute in terms and in forms of the music and Radha’s love as the SUPREME form of LOVE OF A WOMAN would be spread to the world over by the Lord
That was the PUREST form of love that it wss about the relationship of the Lord with Radha
Depicting Radha the lord described and ascribed how a PURE form of LOVE ought and should be and how a woman ought to be loved with causing her any feelings of her physical form being affected
This LOVE of Radha and Lord Shri Krishna as an supreme example is the BEST ever love that has ever taken place in this earth between two soul that ver lived here on the earth
Through Radha the Lord exhibited what PURE and NATURAL love was all about and how it ought to be preserved and protected without any malafide doings
