Ep. 16 - Sri Radha's Victory Parade
Description
In this breathtaking episode, Rasik Swami (formally B.B. Rasikananda Maharaja) unpacks the deep spiritual significance of Ratha-yatra—not just as a celebration, but as Sri Radha’s triumph. With poignant scriptural insight and poetic narration, he explores Krishna’s heartbreaking departure from Vrindavan, Radha’s divine madness in separation, and the crescendo of love that culminates in their reunion. Through tales of gopis lying before Krishna’s chariot and Mahaprabhu weeping in ecstasy, we come to understand how Ratha-yatra is Radha’s ultimate victory: the moment when Her love draws Krishna back home. This episode is a love letter to divine longing, reunion, and the power of selfless devotion.
