Radha Krishna Love Story: Valentine’s Day is celebrated on 14 February. This day is dedicated to love. Whenever there is talk of any love story, the name of Radha-Krishna comes first. Even though Radha and Krishna were not married, their love was selfless and spiritual. The love of Radha and Shri Krishna is immortal. Many mythological stories are prevalent regarding the love of Radha-Krishna. Let’s know about some such unheard love stories of Radha-Krishna.
Radha fainted on seeing Krishna
According to a legend, Radha was about five years older than Shri Krishna. He saw Shri Krishna for the first time when his mother Yashoda tied him to an oak tree. It is said that on seeing Krishna for the first time, Radha became unconscious and fell in love. On seeing Krishna, Radha felt as if she had a relationship with Krishna in her previous birth.
On the other hand, some scholars say that Radha had come to Gokul for the first time with her father. Then he saw Shri Krishna for the first time. The place where both of them met for the first time is called Sanket Tirtha. Just like Radha had lost her senses on seeing Krishna, in the same way, Krishna too had gone berserk on seeing Radha. It was love at first sight in both of them.
These two things were very dear to Shri Krishna
It is said that at that time only two things were most dear to Shri Krishna, one was flute and the other was Radha. Wherever Radha was, she used to get drawn to the tune of Krishna’s flute. When Krishna left Radha and started going to Mathura, he gifted his most beloved Murli to Radha. Radha also kept this Murli carefully for years. Whenever she remembered Shri Krishna, she used to play this Murli.
Whereas Shri Krishna used to plant peacock feathers in the memory of Radha and used to wear Vaijayanti garland. According to mythology, Shri Krishna got the peacock feather when he was once dancing with Radha in the garden. He picked up this peacock feather and put it on his head and Radha garlanded Sri Krishna with Vaijayanti garland before dancing. Radha is considered incomplete without Lord Krishna and Krishna is considered incomplete without Radha.
