EDITORIAL September 17, 1999 VNN4745 Comment on this story The Twenty-five Qualities Of Srimate Radharani BY MAHAVEGAVATI DASI EDITORIAL, Sep 17 (VNN) — Posting for the pleasure of the assembled Vaisnavas: Hare Krsna. All glories to His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and to Srimate Radharani Who is Krsna's compassion personified. May They be glorified on this day, and every other day, and may They give us Their mercy and blessings for attainment of pure eternal loving service unto Their Lotus Feet, and unto the Lotus Feet of Lord Sri Krsna and His devotees. Please accept my fallen obeisances. Following is the list of the 25 qualities of Srimate Radharani by which She purchases and captures Krsna: 1) She is sweetness personified. 2) She is a fresh young girl. 3) Her eyes are always moving. 4) She is always brightly smiling. 5) She possesses all auspicious marks on Her body. 6) She can agitate Krsna by the flavor of Her person. 7) She is expert in the art of singing. 8) She can speak very nicely and sweetly. 9) She is expert in presenting feminine attractions. 10) She is modest and gentle. 11) She is always very merciful. 12) She is transcendentally cunning. 13) She knows how to dress nicely. 14) She is always shy. 15) She is always respectful. 16) She is always patient. 17) She is very grave. 18) She is enjoyed by Krsna. 19) She is always situated on the highest devotional platform. 20) She is the abode of love of the residents of Gokula. 21) She can give shelter to all kinds of devotees. 22) She is always affectionate to superiors and inferiors. 23) She is the greatest amongst Krsna's girlfriends. 24) She is obliged by the dealings of Her associates. 25) She always keeps Krsna under Her control. Krsna is known as Madan-Mohan, the attracter of Cupid, but Srimate Radharani is Madan-Mohan-Mohani, the attracter of the attracter of Cupid. Srimate Radhika attracts Krsna by Her devotion. In "Nectar of Devotion" pg 175, under the qualities of Krsna, "compassionate" Srila Prabhupada writes, "A person who is unable to bear another's distress is called compassionate...Actually, because Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, it is very difficult to approach Him. But the devotees, taking advantage of His compassionate nature, which is represented by Radharani, always pray to Radharani for Krsna's compassion." JAYA SRIMATE RADHARANI!!! JAYA RADHE!!! HARI BOL!!! May Her mercy and blessings be upon us. NOD pg 259, "When Srimate Radharani first saw Krsna, She suddenly became conscious of all transcendental happiness, and the functions of Her different limbs were stunned. when Lalita, Her constant companion, whispered into Her ear, the holy name of krsna, Radharani immediately opened Her eyes wide. "One day, in a joking mood, Krsna informed Radharani, 'My dear Radharani, I am going to give up Your company.' Upon saying this, He immediately disappeared, and because of this, Radharani immediately fell down upon the ground of Vrndavana. she had practically stopped breathing, but when She smelled the flavor of the flowers on the ground, She awoke in ecstasy and got up. "One night, Srimate Radharani was talking in a dream. 'My dear Krsna, ' She said, 'plese do not play any more jokes on Me! Please stop! And please don't touch my garments either. Otherwise I shall inform the elderpersons, and I shall disclose all of Your naughty behavior.' She was talking like this in a dream. She suddenly awoke and saw some of Her superiors standing before Her. Thus Radharani became ashamed and bowed Her head." All glories to Srimate Radharani Who is the Queen of Vrndavan and Who through Her love of Krsna and His devotees, pleases Him. May Her infinite mercy be upon all of us, and may we aspire to become Her maidservants in Vrndavan. JAYA RADHE!!! HARE KRSNA.
