Radharani is a tenderhearted feminine counterpart of the supreme whole, resembling the perfectional stage of the worldly feminine nature. Therefore, the mercy of Radharani is available very readily to the sincere devotees, and once she recommends such a devotee to Lord Krishna, the Lord at once accepts the devotee s admittance into His association. ?Srila Prabhupada (Bhagavatam 2.3.23) The concept of God completes with his energies and the God himself. Both the aspects of God exist with Him and are even indistinguishable. Such is the relation of Radha Krishna. One of the most beloved gopis of Lord Krishna was the Radha.
