Krishna and Radha Relationship

Radhamoni was main gopi of goloka. Radhamoni's parents name were Maharaja Vrishabhanu and Kirtida. In sanskrita, Radha means “Fortunate, Successful. Radhamoni represent 'the feeling of love towards krishna'. Because of her pure love, krishna always incomplete witout radhamoni(radha). Radharani's superiority is seen in Krishna's flute, which repeats the name Radha. Radha is superior among gopikas. Radha's connection to Krishna is of two types: svakiya-rasa (married relationship) and parakiya-rasa (a relationship signified with eternal mental "love"). Radha and krishna's pair is devine pair.


Devine Couple Radha and Krishna!

When Radhamoni was still a baby lying in Her crib. She had been born with Her eyes tightly closed and She had refused to open them ever since Her birth. Her parents Maharaja Vrishabhanu and Kirtida had tried so in so many ways to make their child open Her eyes, but She had refused. Then one day mother Yashoda came visiting their home together with Krishna, who at that time was a toddler.
So when Krishna leaned over the crib to look at Radharani, She opened Her eyes and looked at Her Lord. Krishna was the first thing She saw in Her life. Only Krishna could make Her open Her eyes. That’s how They met the first time when Radharani was a baby and Krishna a toddler and Radharani opened Her eyes for the first time.
Radhamoni

 Radha is both kamini and ramani, desirable and beautiful, she is both a gopi and a nayika and through her we feel the presence of Krishna in Vrindavana and the opulence of the Vaishnava Rajput courts, she is a devi in the temples of the Gaudiyas and through her we are able to worship Krishna, and finally she is even a kalankini or the defiled one and through her we are privy to the folk literature of Bengal and modern middle class psychology of the bhadralok. Radha is ideal lover and devotee of krishna! Radha is  an epitome of selfless love, the love which knew no boundaries, no age, no community. It is Radha's devotion which pulled Krishna to play his beautiful flute, and it is the same devotion which drove Radha to the Raas Leela, forgetting her own self. This love, this devotion, this karma, pure as a prayer, a silent meditation, is what makes Radha divine, this is what turns a devotee into God.
