Epitome of love – Radha Krishna

When we talk about Radha Krishna , many questions came in our mind why didn’t Radha marry to Krishna, why Krishna marry Rukmini when he was love Radha and so on. Everyone one have different thoughts and opinions from the sources they get to know about it. There is almost very less information about Radha in our mythological scriptures, which makes us our mind wander about Radha. Many people in the society makes pathetic statement on the love of Radha Krishna, and one web series also make on the name of Krishna on Netflix the name is “Krishna and his Leela” , this web series contains sexual contents which hurts religious sentiments. Without knowing the fact people make opinions and statement on Radha Krishna love and on Krishna’s character.
The love between Radha Krishna is divine and pure. This love between Radha Krishna is not materialistic. The love between Radha Krishna is not like a mundane love affair between a boy and a girl. The love between them is not like worldly relationships like love in return of love, Radha’s love for Krishna is selfless, unconditional and immortal. The love Radha has for Krishna is devotion in the highest form. Radha is the goddess of love. She is the blissful energy of Krishna. This is the reason behind taking the name of Radha before Krishna. If we remove the ‘R’ from the Radha Krishna , we are left with “adha Krishna” , which means half Krishna, it was Radha presence which completes krishna. Her love for Krishna is highest ecstasy. The selfless love that both of them had for each other is something that we are never going to find in any generation.
Many times people have so many questions and opinions related to marriage of Krishna , that why they didn’t marry Radha instead of so much love? There are different opinions on that , This is a question that has confused devotees and scholars alike for years. Although, everyone agrees that Radha and Krishna never married, the explanations for this vary. It was believed that a marriage between the two was not possible because Radha is a manifestation of Krishna’s inner self and one cannot marry one’s soul. Another thought places the social divide between the two as the hurdle that prevented them from enjoying marital bliss.
Additionally, some scholars believe that marriage was out of the question because Radha Krishna relationship transcends the boundaries of wedded love, and is unbounded and primal. As per one of the philosophies, Radha and Krishna were never two entities. In fact, they were one. Consequently, when Krishna and Radha were one, how could they marry? So, this is the reason behind the Radha Krishna marriage , in fact Radha Krishna relation is beyond marriage.
The tale of Radha Krishna and love cannot be complete without the mention of his flute. The stories of Radha Krishna engaging in Raas Leela, along with other gopis, in Vrindavan are well-known. But a minor -known fact of Radha Krishna relationship is the latter’s flute had a hypnotic effect on his beloved.
The divine story of Radha Krishna is hymned with praise since ages. Radhakrishna togetherness and dedication is an inspiration for billions and billions of generations to come. But, have we understood what their love was like? Can we ever have the capacity to love someone like they did? Do we actually know what True love is?
