Q: What does the Krishna and Radha love story mean to us?
Guruji: There are different levels of meanings. The mundane meaning is it’s a simple love story.
The next deeper meaning is the implied meaning where the awareness is constantly in the Vishuddhi (throat), to Sahasrara (top of head). The more you dwell, it implies the mind wavering between stillness and thoughts.
Radha is a form of Krishna and also the power of Krishna as akarshana (attractive power). It is the Radhini Shakti and is a part of Sri Vidya upasana; it is also the love power of Krishna and attracts all the Gopis. It is not a mundane thing but spiritual. There are 16 petals at the Vishuddhi and 1000 petals at the Sahasrara. Connecting each petal from the Vishuddhi to Sahasrara makes a total of 16,000. These are all in your mind. Thus comes about the concept of the 16,000 Gopis attracted to Krishna. Krishna means darkness or absolute silence. Gopi is the thought. Between one thought and the next thought there is silence. Thought subsides and there is silence before the next thought; likewise between silence and silence there is a thought. So between Krishna and Krishna there is a Gopi and Krishna between a Gopi and Gopi. It is a continuous process. The silence is zero; therefore, it also continues inside and through emotion. The power of silence is attractive; therefore, it attracts a Gopi or a thought. This is the spiritual aspect of the Krishna and Radha love story
The Krishna and Radha love story is a continuum of experience! It is continuing every day and everywhere by everyone!
