THE GLORY AND HERITAGE OF SRĪ SRĪ RADHAKUND by Srimat Anantadas Babaji Maharaja
ABOUT THE BOOK
The ancient Vedic text, Sri Padmapurana says -
"Yatha radha priya vishnostasyah kundam priyam tatha, Sarvagopisu sevaika vishnoratyanta vallabha."
Which means -
"Sri Radhakund is as dear to Lord Vishnu as Sri Radha Herself.
It serves all the Gopis and Lord Vishnu loves it immensely."
Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has stated (translated from Bengali) -
Radhakund is as sweet as Radha, Radhakund is as glorious as Radha.
My dear devotees, pray
Listen to Lord Krishna say -
"Whoever bathes even once in
This Kund so pure,
I grant him Radha-like love,
That's for sure!"
Sripad Rupa Goswami has stated -
"Mathura is greater than Vaikuntha; within Mathura Sri Vrindavan is greater since it is the location of the Raas-lila festival. Therein Sri Govardhan is greater since Sri Govinda enacts His pleasure sports here. Therein Sri Radhakund is greater since it is flooded with the nectarine love of Gokulapati Sri Krishnachandra. Is there any conscious person who would not serve Sri Radhakund that is present at the foothills of Govardhan.”
