Radha Rani's Manifestation
Shri Radha Rani appeared in Barsana (Rawal gaon) as the daughter of Vrishabhanu Maharaj and Kirtida Maiya. She is revered as the embodiment of the highest devotion — hladini shakti, the divine pleasure potency of Shri Krishna Himself.
Radha Ashtami, celebrated fifteen days after Janmashtami, marks Her divine appearance. The love of Radha and Krishna is considered the soul of Brij bhakti — inseparable, eternal and beyond material comparison.
