Without Radha Rani there is no meaning to lord Krishna and without Krishna there is no meaning to Radha Rani. Because of this, in the Vaishnava tradition we always pay respects first to the Lord's internal energy in the form of Radha Rani, and then to the Lord Krishna. Thus They are referred to as Radha-Krishna, or in other names as Sita-Rama, Lakshmi-Narayana, and so on. In this way, Radha and Krishna are one, but when Lord Krishna wants to enjoy, He manifests Himself as Radharani. Otherwise, there is no energy in which Krishna can attain pleasure outside Himself.

CHARACTERISTICS :-

There are unlimited characteristics of RADHARANI, some important characteriscics are:-

Birth of SRIMATI RADHARANI

5000 years ago when Sri Krishna descended in His original form, as a cowherd boy in Vrindavan, Srimati Radharani accompanied Him in Her original form. She appeared exactly two weeks after the appearance of Sri Krishna on the eighth day of the lunar moon (ashtami). Srimati Radharani was found on a lotus flower by Vrashabhanu and his wife Kirtida near the village of Barsana, a few miles away from Nandagrama. It is said that Srimati Radharani first opened Her eyes only when Sri Krishna appeared before Her. Until that time Her eyes were closed.

                            Then one day krishna arrived at RADHA's house and he gave his palm in RADHA'S eye, then RADHA opened her eye and saw her beloved KRISHNA infront of her.

                            Understanding the mellows of the relationship between Krishna and Radha is impossible from the mundane perspective. Understanding devotion at the platform of intimacy, which is the highest level of relationship of a devotee with Krishna, is only possible in the most elevated stages of bhakti where there is not even a tinge of material contamination.

  

                            The loving affairs of Radha and Krishna are not ordinary, material loving affairs, although they appear like that. Rascals and fools misunderstand Krishna to be an ordinary man. They do not know Krishna's transcendental nature. They try to imitate Krishna's rasa-lila, His dancing with the Gopis.

Little knowledge about SRI RADHA part 2

Radharani is called The Supreme Lord has multipotencies, which act so perfectly that all consciousness, strength and activity are being directed solely by His will. That internal potency, called the Hladini Sakti who is Srimati Radharani. Krishna stated in the Bhagavad-Gita (9.10): "Under My superintendence the material energy is working". Apart from the material, external energy, there is another energy - the internal energy. By the internal energy the spiritual world is being manifested. As the material world is manipulated under the external energy, the spiritual world is conducted by the internal potency.

                       Although Radha and Krishna are one in Their identity, They separated Themselves eternally". Srimati Radharani, as the highest devotee of Sri Krishna, derives the greatest pleasure in serving Him. She is the origin of all the Gopis and of all the Goddesses of Fortune  who are engaged in the service of the Lord.The loving affairs of Sri Radha and Krishna are transcendental manifestations of the Lord's internal pleasure-giving potency.

                      The Hare Krishna maha-mantra is in fact a prayer to Srimati Radharani. The word 'Hare' is derived from 'Hara' which denotes the internal energy or Hladini Sakti of Krishna. This is none other that Srimati Radharani. When one is chanting the maha-mantra, one is saying: "O Krishna ! O Radha !! Please engage me in your devotional service". Krishna is difficult to approach directly, but He is bhakta-vatsala, always eager to please His devotees. Thus the mood of a devotee is to invoke the compassion of Srimati Radharani Who then recommends the devotee to Sri Krishna. Since Krishna is easily pleased by Srimati Radharani, He then readily accepts the devotee in His service.

                      At last I would like to add that WITHOUT RADHARANI KRISHNA  is NOBODY

                      

Little knowledge about SRI RADHA part 1

In veda ther is litttle talk about Sri radharani, but in kaliyuga we know about Radharani because of SRI GOURANGA and 6 GOSWAMIS

                                    Narad Pancharatram states that RADHARANI is the Supreme Personality, beyond whom there is no other. Vrishbhanu’s daughter sri Radha, is the primordial nature, from whom everything came into being.   ‘Ra’ and ‘Dha’ mean, “one who creates, one who preserves, and one in whom creation merges Again it has other meaning such as It is written in holy Bhagvat that this sound has capability to satisfy all human desires, including desire to attain eternal bliss. The following description from ‘Samras Upnishada’ tells that, how the name Radha came into existence.
                                     

                                    The word ‘RADHA’ is enough to destroy the evil effects of sins of many births. The letter ‘R’ stands for destroying sins of innumerable births. The sound ‘A’stands for emancipation from death & vicious cycle of birth & rebirth. The sound ‘DH’ means union with Shri Krishna; again, ‘A’ stands for liberation from all the worldly chains.

                                     Shri Krishna’s half part is Radha, and Radha’s half part is Krishna.  Shri Krishna says, “I have assumed the form of Radha.”  Radha Ji says, “I have assumed the form of Krishna.”  Radha is saying, “The form of Krishna is none other than Myself.”  “When I assumed the male form, people started calling me Shri Krishna.”

                                    It is stated that that the personality whom Shri Krishna worships, is known as Radha.  And the personality whom Radha worships, is known as Krishna.  Both worship eachother.
