karauṁ kā rādhā-tatva bakhāna

English meaning

It is absolutely impossible to put in words the importance of Shrī Rādhā. The Brahma, consisting of light, who is worshipped by liberated, pure-soul-paramahansas in their nirvikalpa trance through meditation, is nothing but the light of the nail-gem of Kishorī Jī’s lotus-feet. In other words, rasikas consider the shine of Kishorī Jī’s foot-nail to be formless Brahma. That formless Brahma Himself is unknowable by the Vedas. They describe Him to be indiscernible, imperceptible, incomprehensible, indescribable and inconceivable etc. And in whom even that Brahma is situated is called Shrī Kṛishṇa according to the Gītā. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that according to the Vedas, even that Shrī Kṛishṇa worships Shrī Rādhā. Therefore, instead of trying to fathom the depth of Shrī Rādhā, You also worship Her. Actually, Shrī Rādhā is the soul of Shrī Kṛishṇa. That is why, just as individual souls worship their soul, Shrī Kṛishṇa, in the same way, the Supreme soul Shrī Kṛishṇa also worships His soul, Shrī Rādhā.
