HAPPY JANMASHTAMI ..THE SACRED LOVE STORY OF UNKNOWN TIMES!


"Lord Krishna decorated Himself with various types of costly Golden Jewelry on His body dances with Shrimati Radha in the Group and the Nature/Forest life around with the rattling sounds of Yamuna waters continuously flowing in the back is awestruck with the beauty of the Divine Dance and the melody of the Divine Flute!"


That Dance of Divine Love called Rasa Lila is part of the traditional story of Lord Krishna as He dances with Shrimathi Radha and her Sakhis. It took place one night when the Gopis of Vrindavana in particular Shrimathi Radha, upon hearing the sound of Sri Krishna's Flute, sneaked away from their households and families to the forest to dance throughout the night which the Lord made it last 4.32 billion years, the Single Night of Lord Brahma..

It is one of the highest worshipped Act of Sri Krishna's pastimes and here, the romantic love between human beings in the material world is seen as a reflection of the soul’s original, Ecstatic Spiritual Love..

The Poet cum Devotee of Sri Krishna, Jayadeva composed the poetical expressions of these actions describing the relationship between Lord Krishna and Shrimati Radha along with her Sakhis..

The Gita Govinda comprises of 12 Chapters, 24 Prabandhas and couplets of 8 each, called Ashtapadis. Through out the narration, Shrimati Radha is mentioned greater than Sri Krishna all along elaborating the 8 moods of a Heroine called the Ashta Nayika. These have become later an inspiration for many compositions / choreographic works in Indian classical dances.

The Gita Govindam all along specifically talks of the Love of Sri Krishna for Shrimati Radha and is truly taken as

The symbolical representation of the human soul’s straying from its true allegiance but returning in the end to the God who created that soul!

That Love Story is forever the Sacred Love Story truly worthy of Worship in the hearts of the masses conveying the Sublime Character of Love between two Souls where in two individuals continuously

  • Respect each other,
  • Work for each other,
  • Safeguard the rights of each other and
  • Ever would be ready to sacrifice for the sake of the other
And thus live through their one life with total fullness for the purpose of Union of Prakriti and Purusha involving the ultimate the good of the world!

  1. I really cant explain how much i loved it, having been a part of a family where Geeta, Geet Govindam, Upanishads are discussed and the chanting of mantras can be heard now and then i can deeply relate with this post.
