About this site

Radhakrishna.com is the digital home of Shri Radha Krishna. It gathers their stories, prayers, festivals and temples in one place, written plainly and sourced to scripture.

Who publishes it

This site is a project of the Ved Vyas Foundation, a non-profit that builds free devotional resources. The same foundation publishes the Bhagavad Gita website and app used by readers around the world.

How the pages are written

Every page names its scripture by chapter and verse, so you can open the text and read it yourself. Where the schools differ, the page says whose reading you are getting. Gaudiya, Nimbarka, Vallabha, Radha Vallabh and Madhva teachers read the same events differently, and that difference is part of the answer.

You will also see the difference between a Purana and a much loved retelling. Some of the most beautiful Radha Krishna stories come from later devotional literature or from the oral tradition of Braj. That takes nothing away from them. It tells you what kind of source you are holding.

Where the texts are silent, the page says so rather than filling the gap with something confident and invented.

The art

The paintings on this site are made for it, in the spirit of Raja Ravi Varma and the devotional calendar art of Braj. You can see them together in the image gallery.
