Radhastami, the divine appearance of Srimati Radharani, the hladini sakti, pleasure potency and eternal consort of Sri Krishna, is almost more sacred to Gaudiya Vaisnavas than Janmastami. Without the mercy and blessings of Radha Rani we cannot even begin to approach the entrance into the sweetness of Vraja seva and supremely pure loving mellow ,the pastimes of madhurya rasa, the highest perfection of prema bhakti.

Vrindavanesawari is no less than a queen in Navadvip too after all She only created it .

The esoteric and divine reason for the creation of Navadvipa Dhama by Srimati Radharani Herself has at its core, that very mood of the conjugal rasa and Radha rani’s intense state of maha-bhava. So Navadvipa is the place where Radha and krishna are one.

Mayapur celebrates this auspicious day of Radhashtmi with immense grandeur . On this day, a gorgeous new outfit is offered to Srimati Radharani and she’s dressed up in the most special way. The temple also, is lavishly decorated with flowers and garlands. Srimati Radharani’s glories are narrated in the morning Bhagavatam class. A maha abhisheka is performed at noon with a variety of ingredients and many colorful flowers. Devotees prepare elaborate bhoga with hundreds of varieties After the abhisheka, bhoga is offered and maha-arati is performed .

Radhashtmi is the only auspicious occasion when the most divine , most merciful lotus feet of Srimati Radharani are visible for the darshan .
