    By uttering the name of Vrndavana, 

     one attains the merit of chanting Krsna`s holy name.
    By hearing the name of Vrndavana,
     one obtains the merits of saintly association.
    By smelling the fragrance of Vrndavana,
     one is blessed by the merit of smelling
     the sweet fragrance of tulasi leaves offered to Lord Govinda.
    Sri Garga Samhita.

      In the Brihad-Gautamiya Tantra, Radharani is described as follows:

     

    devi krishna-mayi prokta

    radhika para-devata

    sarva-lakshmi-mayi sarva

    kantih sammohini para

    "The transcendental goddess Srimati Radharani is the direct counterpart of Lord Sri Krishna. She is the central figure for all the goddesses of fortune. She possesses all the attractiveness to attract the all-attractive Personality of Godhead. She is the primeval internal potency of the Lord."

    Bhakti is a gravitational force that works at two ends.

     It draws the bhakta to Bhagavan and Bhagavan to the bhakta.
     Bhagavan is drawn to the bhakta,
     because He relishes the bliss flowing from bhakti
     in the heart of the bhakta
     even more than the bliss flowing from the nature of His own self.
     As soon as the flower of bhakti blossoms in the heart  of a devotee,
     Bhagavan, like a black bee, is drawn by its fragrance.

     The only way to obtain Krsna`s mercy

     is through His causeless love,
     and Krsna is most lovingly inclined
     toward those devotees who are
     most dependent on Him,
     just as ordinary mothers and fathers
     worry more about their children
     than about those who are self-sufficient.
