Hare KrishnaPlease Accept my Humble Obeisances. All Glories to our Most Dear Srila Prabhupada.Please forgive my offenses if I have committed any in asking this question.I know Srimati Subhadra Devi is the Sister of Krishna & Balaram.I also know that She is represented in Her form next to Her brothers Krishna and Balaram in the form of Jagannath, Subhadra, and Baladev.My question is, since Srimati Radharani is not particularly present in the form of Jagannath/Baladev/Subhadra, does Srimati Subhadra represent Srimati Radharani's energy?Please forgive me again if I have committed any offense in asking this question.Your Servant,David

Dear devotees Hare Krsna. The deities of Jagannath Balarama and Subhadra are eternally situated in Goloka and that Jagannath Puri is non different from Vrndavan.
Purushotama Kshetra is a separate compartment of Goloka where the Lord is eternally in the mood of separation from Radharani and Vrndavan.
Subhadra Devi is Yoga maya in this dham.
There is no maha maya in the spiritual world of Goloka or on the earth in the dham.
Many people think Subhadra is maha maya, Durga and they will see in that way.
Some see as Laksmi some as Sita and some Rukmini and they will have that faith.
We see as Lord Chaitanya was seeing in the mood of separation from Krsna.
Subhadra is Krsna's sister who when entering Vrndavan at the birth of Krsna is yoga maya and then becomes maha maya when going to Mathura.
Very little is written about Subhadra other than She is yoga maya in Jagannath Puri.
This Temple and this dham is never destroyed even at the time of universal devastation.
The same temple and deities are simultaneously manifest in Goloka.
This compartment of Goloka is very mysterious and is the place where Lord Chaitanya is eternally crying in the madness of separation from Krsna. Hare Krsna
Hare Krishna His Grace Jagadatma Prabhu, please accept my humble obeisances! ALl glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Thank You for this explanation! i also learned. and thank You David Prabhu for putting this question!
Your servant,
Dear David Hare Krsna. The forms of Jaganath Balaram and Subhadra are very mysterious.
Subhadra is Yoga Maya Personified who is Purnamasi in Braj lila.
Krsna is in the form of the highest ecstacy in sparation from Radharani and Radharani is situated in His heart.
This is expressed in the Jaganath astakam that He is always embracing Srimati Radharani to His Chest.
Just as Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is a combined form of Radha and Krsna so is Jaganath mahaprabhu Krsna and Radha combined in the mood of sparation.
There is no difference between Vrndavan and Jaganath Puri in Truth.
One is the compartment of union and one is the compartment of separation.
Lord Sri Chaitanya lives in that eternal abode of purushottama Ksetra in the mood of Srimati Radharani feeling the acute pangs of separetion and Krsna is there as Jaganath feeling acute pangs of separation from Radha.
Therefore Jaganath Puri is called vipralamba Ksetra and gupta Vrndavan (hidden) as Radha and Krsna live only in Vrndavan, no where else.
Goverdhan hill is there and river Yamuna and all the forests of Braj but hidden.
Subhadra is making all arangements for this eternal pastime of Love in separation.
Hare Krsna.
