Sometimes even the most beautiful scenes in life cannot comfort the heart. The river continues to flow, flowers bloom on the trees, and the moon scatt

Where Does Love Come From?

ShriOnly those who know and worship Shri Radha know the place of Shri Radha in Krishna's life. In the scriptures it is said to call Krishna only after taking the name of Shri Radha. One who does not do this becomes a partner in sin. This is said in chapter (124) of the Krishnajanma section of the second part of the Brahmavaivarta Purana. It is told in the Puranas that even when there was no Brahma, there was no air, there was no water, Shri Radha was with Shri Krishna. When Shri Krishna was born on earth, Shri Radha also took birth with him on earth at the place of Vrishabhanu ji. She is also seen performing pastimes with Shri Krishna in Vrindavan, this is also described in many Puranas. Question: When Lord Shri Krishna was roaming in Mathura, Vrindavan, Dwarka, Indraprastha and Kurukshetra etc. to eliminate the evil spirits on this earth, why was Shri Radha sitting far away from him and bearing the pain of being away from Shri Krishna? Why did Shri Krishna bring Shri Radha with him? If Shri Radha had not come with him, he would not have had to go through this fire of separation. But why did the opposite happen? Why did Shri Krishna, who knew everything, allow this to happen?
Pralaye brahmanah paate tannimesho harerpi.
आदौ राधां समुचार्या पश्करकृष्णं परतपर्म॥9॥
When this universe was not even born, there was no sun and moon, no Brahma ji, no air, no water anywhere, still Shri Radha was with Shri Krishna, it is told in the Puranas.
When Shri Krishna was born on earth, Shri Radha also took birth along with him at the place of Vrishabhanu ji on earth. She is seen performing pastimes with Shri Krishna in Vrindavan, this is also mentioned in many Puranas.
QThe question is that when Lord Shri Krishna was roaming in Mathura, Vrindavan, Dwarka, Indraprastha and Kurukshetra etc. to eliminate the evil spirits on this earth, then why was Shri Radha sitting far away from him and bearing the pain of being away from Shri Krishna?

ShriWhile Krishna's life teaches us to keep working, teaches us the lesson of taking up arms to end atrocities, another aspect is seen standing very strongly behind all this and that is the teaching of love. Today if this world and creation is sustainable then only love is its basis. If there was no love, there would be only darkness and carnage in every direction. It was only to teach and explain this to the human race that Shri Radha had come with them. Can anyone imagine a society without love?
HI can find many such examples around me that people first fell in love and then got married and raised a family. Even today he is living his life happily on the foundation of this love. Because he has the meaning of Radhakrishna's love, he knows and understands it. But if we look at a society which has nothing to do with the love of Shri Radhakrishna, then there you will see only formality. If there is no love, separation also happens soon. This is the reason why the western civilization has understood the meaning of the love of Shri Radha Krishna and they have also started adopting it, have started worshiping Radha Krishna. 3. This is the only meaning that can be understood for Radha's coming with Shri Krishna. Shri Radha is a part of Shri Krishna's body. She is always present in the chest of Shri Krishna. Even if she had not come separately, no incident from Shri Krishna's life would have remained. The only difference was that we human beings were not to understand the meaning of love, this word love was not to be present among us. And anyone can imagine a society without it. This word of love has been given to us by the love of Radhakrishna and India has given this word of love to the whole world, no one should have any doubt about it. The same message of love is hidden in the verse written in Chapter 6, Mantra 71 of Mahopanishad
Good worship of Jaganmatarlok Shikshakari.
Brahmaswaroopa Bhavati Krishnavakshahsthalasthita. 3॥
