Sri Sri Radha Shyamasundara Statue of Vrindavan ISKCON Temple

Radha Krishna Statue of Vrindavan ISKCON Temple

Krishna's youthful dalliances with the 'gopis' are interpreted as symbolic of the loving interplay between God and the human soul. Radha's utterly rapturous love for Krishna and their relationship is often interpreted as the quest for union with the divine. This kind of love is of the highest form of devotion in Vaishnavism, and is symbolically represented as the bond between the wife and husband or beloved and lover.
