Radhayan
About the Book Of all the mythic characters in the Hindu pantheon none is more enigmatic and evocative than Radha. Appearing for the first time in Jayadeva’s Gita Govinda, where she is the ultimate beloved, she traverses political dynasties, royal ateliers and social barriers to emerge as a consort of Krishna. Brought alive by poets, developing a colourful presence in the hands of painters, dancing through prosceniums and acquiring a lyrical life through songs, both classical and popular, Radha is present in homes and havelis, celebrated by the the samajika and the rasika, has a presence in temples and roadside shrines as a symbol of pure and eternal love. And yet there are so many questio...
The Reincarnation of Radha
She is referred to as the mysterious Radha! Some people do not believe she ever existed. Others believe she was an adulteress. The truth is that Radha was a soul that lacked self-love. However, her love for Sri Krishna was boundless and unconditional. In this contemporary 21st century story about Radha’s reincarnation, you will learn how her consciousness contrived a plan to give Sri Krishna the Shakti he needed from her while simultaneously breaking her heart. She even chose for him to never speak to her until she had become enlightened herself. She thought nothing of her own self-preservation or the great suffering she would inevitably endure. The questions that remain to be answered are...
Finding Radha
Who was Radha, and why has she captured the imagination of so many writers across centuries? No other goddess combines the elements of bhakti and shringara quite as exquisitely as the divine milkmaid. She spans a vivid rainbow of imagery-from the playfulness of the Ras Lila to the soulfulness of her undying love, from the mystic allure of her depictions in poetry, art and sculpture to her enduring legacy in Vrindavan. In a way that sets her apart from other female consorts, Radha is idealized and dreamed of in a way that is almost more elemental than mythical. Namita Gokhale and Malashri Lal, who brought us In Search of Sita: Revisiting Mythology, now present an anthology on the mysterious Radha, the epitome of love, who defies all conventional codes yet transcends social prohibitions through the power of the spiritual and the sensual, the sacred and the erotic. Finding Radha is the first of its kind: a collection of poetry, prose and translation that enter the historical as well as the artistic dimensions of the eternal romance of Radha and Krishna.
Radha-Krsna
In his book RadhaKrsna Sunil Gangopadhyay did not treat Krsna and Radha as god and goddess. He described them as common ordinary human just like us. His description of the love between Radha and Krsna therefore had sensual connotations following the custom of many literary publications of the past like Jayadeva's 'Gitagovinda' and many Padabali Kirtanas. However, we have to remember that Krsna is the 'Param Brahma' that is the Supreme Spirit as defined in the Hindu Dharma Shastras. Shrimati Radha is his consort or his 'Shakti' that is power. The 'Prema' that is love between them is devotional and spiritual love. Krsna and Radha's devotional love plays are the 'Rasa Lila' of Bhagavan Shri Krsna and his 'Shakti' Radha.
Radha
Radha, an award-winning novel by Krishna Dharabasi, is a mythopoetic fiction that relies on a subject drawn from the epic Mahabharata with a special focus on the lives and relations between Krishna and Radha. Written from Radhas perspective, the novel excavates those subtle and discursive social constructs of that era that barred a woman from exercising her free will and licensed a man for following his unrestrained desires. The novel peels out those myth-making endeavors that gave Krishna an aura of a godlike personality and left Radha waiting on the fringe of the society to see his return and fulfillment of her desire.

Radha
On an idyllic afternoon in the breathtakingly beautiful Kovalam beach, among the waving coconut palms, rhythms of the ocean waves and hot afternoon sun, two young medical students, Radha, a young girl raised in the strictest Hindu traditions, and Danny, a Christian boy, fall in love. In this classical story, we follow their lives intertwine and separate, their dreams blossom and wither, and as pawns in the game of fate they land back on the same shores of the ocean to experience their ultimate destiny. Radha's story is unique, and promises to evoke tender smiles, laughter and tears, anger and indignation, and above all, hope, despite all ups and downs. As we journey along, we experience the exotic, wonderful and extraordinary lives of this duo set in India and in the United States of America as only one who has lived in both worlds can tell. A physician herself, the author brings an authentic voice to the medical details, while keeping our hearts and minds sympathetic to Radha's personal needs and dreams, leaving us rooting for Radha's happiness.
