Radha-Krsna : English Translation of Radhakrsna by Sunil Gangopadhyay

In his book "R? dh? Krsna" Sunil Gangopadhyay did not treat Krsna and R? dh? as god and goddess. He described them as common ordinary human just like us. His description of the love between R? dh? and Krsna therefore had sensual connotations following the custom of many literary publications of the past like Jayadeva's 'Gitagovinda' and many Pad? bali Kirtanas. However, we have to remember that Krsna is the 'Param Brahma' that is the Supreme Spirit as defined in the Hindu Dharma Sh? stras. Shrimati R? dh? is his consort or his 'Shakti' that is power. The 'Prema' that is love between them is devotional and spiritual love. Krsna and R? dh? 's devotional love plays are the 'R? sa Lil? ' of Bhagav? n Shri Krsna and his 'Shakti' R? dh? .
