Radha
Radha was very special to Krishna… Here is one of the most beautiful stories about Radha that i know:
Much after Vrindavan, when Krishna was relaxing with his many wives, Rukmini his head wife threw a tantrum… All the time i hear Radhe Krishna, Radhe Govind… she is not even married to you… how come no one sings about Rukmini, or for that matter any of the other of your wives?! Whats wrong with us?… etc, etc 
Krishna listened patiently and then suddenly held his head and complained of a head ache. Now Rukmini felt sorry, and became all loving and docile again… but the head ache refused to go… Each wife had her own suggestion about what to do… some pressed feet, others did some aroma therapy, still others made pastes from herbs… 16000+ cures were presented, none worked, his head ache only grew worse…
Narada the travelling Muni then made an appearance (Besides being a Muni, he was also something of a doctor) and he examined Krishna, felt his pulse, etc and then proclaimed that Krishna was suffering from a very rare type of a headache… one that could only be cured by a Beloved of Krishna putting his or her foot on Krishna’s head… Krishna was in bed moaning softly, and the wives and the courtiers of the palace had a conference… They were all beloved of Krishna, but none dared to put their foot on the Lord’s head, doing so would mean an eternity in Hell! and they were pondering and wondering what to do…
… and the news reached Radha in Vrindavan about Krishna’s ill health and she rushed to his palace and when appraised of everything, asked immidiately to be taken to Krishna, she would happily put her foot on His head… Rukmini, the other wives and the rest of the palace was aghast at her quick decision… Rukmini herself told her that if she Radha did that, she would burn in hell forever…
If my Lord gets even one second of relief from his pain, then i will willingly go to hell forever said Radha as she ran to her Krishna and put her foot on his head, curing Him completely…
An abashed Rukmini along with all the other wives touched Radha’s feet and realised how deep her love for Krishna was… and why people for centuries to come will sing Radhe Krishna!!
May our love for Guruji be like Radha’s love for Krishna!
Jai Gurudeva!

Radheyyy Krishnaaaaaaaaaa…..
love…..peace……..blisss..anand………..divinity……..soul…….eternityyyy…….Guru Ji..twinkle
that’s a very nice blessing!
i admit i never fully realized the power this story carried. i thought what is the big deal in that… But when you associated this with us and Guruji, i say, “yup! it is a very very big deal!”
Bau, isnt it Narada Muni ? Not – “Narayana the travelling Muni”
“May our love for Guruji be like Radha’s love for Krishna” Amen!
really a very good story! i loved it!
radhe krishna
I have heard a slightly different version of this story by Guruji in Narada Bhakthi Sutra.
But the essence is the same… “I’d do anything to make my beloved happy, even if that means, rotting in hell for 14 lifetimes.”
Do visit my friend’s blog. He written on True Love.

Isnt it obvious that Girl Friends gain more fame and popularity than wives ?
Great Bau, par isko elaborate toh karo!..I mean explain the metaphorical meaning as well..What is the hell, what is the Radha and what is the Krishna and Rukmini in this context.

Dear Bau
havent you found your Radha so far? -:)
Bawa your Radhe Shyam Radhe Shyam and frequent *adult theme* jokes suggest that you may have found your Radha
WOW!!!!so profound…and soooooo devoted…Radha’s love for Krishna was really something else naa???
i think we would be privileged if we could Love our Guruji even 10% of that…and ohh what bliss that would be!!!!
That love of radha makes me bow. Being the love that she IS is a great blessing.
Radheshyam.

Want to know more stories about not only Radha-Krishna but Krishna-Meeraa
jgd bawa!
The significance of todays mordern love has to learn a lot from reading this kind of epic love stories ! but today’s youngsters ill determine it to be magical than the fruitful ness of real love and devotions!
RADHE was very madly love and devoted to Lord Krishna ! the thing why this love is divine love ! is the self sacrifice even for the sake of beloved’s releiveance!
this kind of self sacrifice love is never seen in todays modern love (as far as i have heard) atleast by reading this story the future generation should know the true value of love and devotion which has to be prevailed throughout their life ! we are very grateful to u to post a true divine love story and thereby letting know to the youngsters of the modern era to know the value of true love and devotion NOTE : PL post lot of similar stories like this !
What a knowledge. Bawa n Dinesh… Why don’t you write more often? – With Love – Pothi
Jai Guru Dev.
