Facts about Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī - who is Kṛṣṇa's eternal consort, Sakti-tattva and chief gopi


Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī is the Supreme Goddess, Lord Kṛṣṇa’s most beloved consort, the mother of the entire universe, the pleasure potency of Kṛṣṇa and the queen of Vṛndāvana. When chanting "Hare", one cries out to Rādhārāṇī, for She is the one capable of delivering a soul from the bondage of material life. Also described as "hari-priya", Rādhārāṇī is so dear to Kṛṣṇa that under Her recommendation, no matter how fallen a soul is, one’s desert-like heart will be blessed and understanding of Kṛṣṇa will come. Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī symbolizes the internal energy, and one should make taking shelter of Her lotus feet, one's goal of life. That is the perfection of life.

As the chief of the gopis, Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī possesses the highest ecstasy of love, and Her mood is incomparable. No materialists can understand the loving exchanges between Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, but by endeavoring to awaken our dormant love for God we will come closer to entering into such loving exchanges. If we try to reach Kṛṣṇa through Rādhārāṇī, then our business is successful. Therefore we should worship Rādhārāṇī first. That is our business. Instead of offering directly one flower to Kṛṣṇa, we just put it in the hands of Rādhārāṇī: "My mother Rādhārāṇī, jagan-mātā, if You kindly take this flower and offer it to Kṛṣṇa." "Oh," Rādhārāṇī says, "Oh, you have brought a flower?"

Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, with Her skin resembling a yellow campaka flower and Her lips red with attraction for Kṛṣṇa, possesses a beauty compared to kumkuma, and Her friendship is like sandalwood pulp. To all, Rādhārāṇī is a source of spiritual inspiration and She has the greatest position which is full of wonder: to attract the all-attractive Kṛṣṇa who attracts the whole Universe.
