Unconditional Love

Radha Krishna's Unconditional Love

Hi Adding a story from Sandhya Suri's Blog. Its a very beautiful story...


Here is a story about lord Krishna that will tell us what true love is about.

Krishna, while living in Dwarka with his favourite wife Rukmani, would
very Often softly utter to himself, "O Radha… O Radha"

Rukmani felt jealous and asked him why he kept Remembering Radha so
often. Krishna did not say Anything. He just smiled.

A few days later, Krishna complained of stomach Ache. Rukmani gave him
medicines, but the pain did not Go away. He kept moaning in pain.

Krishna told her that only a little charanamrita (blessed water) of a
person who truly loved him would Put an end to his agony. He begged
Rukmani to give him some of her charanamrita

A shocked Rukmani refused: "How can I commit such a terrible sin? You
are the Lord of all that be, and if I gave you my charanamrita I would
surely go to hell.

Krishna than asked Rukmani to send an attendant to Vrindavan and try
and procure some charanamrita from Someone there. Soon the attendant
returned with a Cupful of charanamrita and as Krishna sipped it, all
The pain disappeared.

He then asked the attendant, "Who gave you this Charanamrita the
attendant replied, "no one in Vrindavan was ready to give it on
learning it was for Lord Krishna.

Then one young woman came running up to Me and gave me this cup. Her
companions cautioned her, "You fool Radha, you are committing the
greatest sin. But she did not care. She said, "I don't care about What
happens to me but I cannot bear to see my beloved Krishna in pain."

Krishna turned to rukmani standing by his side and Said, "Radha is not
afraid of going to hell for me. She only thinks about me.

So if Radha loves me so Much, should I also not long for her?
