Lord Krishna Beautiful Hand Painted Indian Traditional Religious pichwai with gopis …. “Maharaas”
Maharas is one of the wonderful pastimes of Shri Krishna. It was conceived by the Gopis in Vrindavan in the month of Margashirsha.
The gopis worshiped Goddess Katyayani continuously for one month on the sands of Yamuna in Vrindavan and chanted daily. Lord Krishna had to come because of his love and penance.
Krishna created Maharas by holding different forms with each gopi there
The songs of this Maharas are described in the Dasam Skandha of the Bhagavata as Ras Pancha Adhyati. The Maharas lasted for a full six months and called this night Ahoratri.
Medium : Natural Stone (Pigment) color on cloth and gold work on cloth ..
Radha, daughter of Vrishabhanu, was Krishna’s lover during that period of his life when he lived among the cowherds of Vrindavan. Since childhood they were close to each other – they played, they danced, they fought, they grew up together and wanted to be together forever, but the world pulled them apart.
It is believed that Krishna enchants the world, but Radha enchants even him. Therefore, she is the supreme goddess of all and together they are called as Radha-Krishna.
The Gita Govinda written by Jayadeva in 12th century widely depicted Radha and Krishna as a couple for the first time. In the late Brahma Vaivarta Purana, Radha-Krishna is the central image and supreme deity. Scriptures like Brahma Vaivarta Purana and Garg Samhita are majorly based on the divine pastimes of Radha Krishna in Vrindavan as well as in their eternal abode Goloka. The other relevant texts in which Radha Krishna were mentioned are Radhopnishad of Rig Veda, Radhatapani Upanishad of Atharva Veda, Shiva Puran , Brahmanda Puran, Skanda Puran, Padma Puran, Matsya Puran, Devi-Bhagavata Purana, Narada Pancharatra and Brahma samhita. Goddess Radha is also indirectly mentioned in Shrimad Bhagvatam along with Lord Krishna under many different names like “Aradhika” and “Gopi” by Sukadeva Goswami. Adi Shankracharya who happened way before Jayadeva also mentioned Goddess Radha in his work called “Achyuta Ashtakam” which is dedicated to Achyuta form of Lord Krishna.
