Chandravali is the leader of the 'mugdha' Gopis. In the divine pastime of Shri Radha Krishna, she was the cousin sister of Shri Radha Rani. The 'mugdha' Gopis are infatuated with Shri Krishna and are grateful for any attention He bestows on them. Radha Rani is the Swamini (and the leader) of the 'manini' Gopis. The manini Gopis remain externally aloof and unfavourable towards Krishna while harbouring the highest selfless love for Him. That is why Shri Krishna always attempts to appease the manini Gopis when they do mana. The mugdha gopis make different plans to meet Shri Krishna in Vrindavan and have His 'darshan' to relieve their pangs of separation from Shri Krishna. For example, these Gopis go to Nandagaon to sell dahi/curd/yoghurt with the hope that they will get 'darshan' of Shri Krishna. In contrast to the mugdha gopis, the manini gopis never make any such plans on their own to meet Shri Krishna even if they have to bear infinite pain in separation from Shri Krishna. For these Gopis, Shri Krishna's desire is their own desire. And they know if Shri Krishna wants to meet them, He will do so whenever He wishes. Their divine bhav or sentiment is known as 'sakhi bhav'. These Gopis always wish to unite Shri Radha Krishna and to serve the Divine Couple to please Them. The 'mugdha' Gopis of Chandravali's group reach the level of 'rudha mahabhava', whereas the 'manini' Gopis reach the highest level of 'adhirudha mahabhava' (of Divine Love) because of their highest level of selfless devotion. We have to remember that all these Gopis are but eternally liberated souls (unlike us, eternally maya-bound souls), i.e., there was never a time when They were under the control of Maya. They always descend from the Divine Golok Dham of Shri Radha Krishna to assist the Divine Couple in their divine pastimes. The glories of these Braj Gopis is such that even Brahma, Shankar wish to attain the foot dust of these Gopis! Who then can describe the exalted Divine Love of such Braj Gopis?
Radhey Radhey, Mahabhava is the highest stage of Divine Love that can be attained by a soul (attained only after God-realization) who has developed selfless madhurya bhav for Shri Krishna, where a soul considers Shri Krishna as her Beloved (not as husband). The Mahabhava state is not even attained by Mahalakshmi, Rukmini and the queens of Dwarika. It is only attained by the Gopis of Braj because of their selfless devotion in madhurya bhav. However, it can only be attained when a soul surrenders to an eternally liberated Braj Gopi, i.e., when a soul accepts a Gopi-bhav Saint as his Guru and practice devotion according to his Guru's instructions. So there is an intermediary between Shri Krishna and the soul, no direct relationship with Shri Krishna. This selfless madhurya bhav has different levels of selflessness and accordingly, the intensity of love experienced by the Gopis vary based on their level of selflessness. The first level of selflessness is where the Gopi desires both darshan and touch of Shri Krishna, but only when that makes Shri Krishna happy. This group of Gopis attain the first level of Mahabhava, called 'Rudha Mahabhava'. Higher than this level of selflessness is what is seen in those Gopis who do not desire the touch of Shri Krishna. They are satiated by His darshan alone. The bhavs of these Gopis is called 'sakhi bhav'. For these Gopis, Radha Rani is their Swamini. They always wish to unite Radha Krishna and derive infinitely more pleasure from the union of Radha Krishna as compared to their own union with Shri Krishna. These sakhi bhav gopis get to experience the higher stage of Mahabhava, called 'Adhirudha Mahabhava'. In Adhirudha Mahabhava, there is simultaneous, incomparable happiness and suffering caused by union and separation. Adhirudha Mahabhava is of two types: modana and maadana. The modana bhav is experienced by the Sakhis of Radha Rani and Shri Krishna Himself. The zenith of Divine Love is maadana. It is only experienced by Shri Radha Rani. Even Shri Krishna doesn't attain this stage of Divine Love. This is reserved exclusively for Radha Rani. Even Brahma and Shankar cannot understand this 'maadana bhav'!

BUT whenever you see this please help me swamji .. will be waiting for ur reply even if takes years ..
So true! Radharani and Krishna's actions are always selfless. They both want to increase other's happiness. How great and divine their love is! In our material intellect we cannot understand it's depth. Very nicely summarises by Swamiji.
In scriptures Krishna also answers the question who is radharani as follows : It's she who aims to give Krishna the highest bliss every moment And it's she to whom Krishna aims to give the highest bliss every moment By this we should understand the position of radha

@kichu kotha bangla there is no difference between Bhaisnav guru and Shree Krishna. Everything is Krishna’s. And there is no difference between Krishna and what is Krishna’s. Radhe Radhe 🙏😄😀
This leela is beautifully written by Sri Kripalu ji maharaj. And we are so blessed he is our Gurudev and nicely explained by Swamiji. Radhe Radhe . Kripalu mahaprabhu ki jai..
The material realms are to enhance our own peace but the divine realms are the true peace to our soul.. this Leela described by Swamiji is so impactful as like he visualised us the same with his words..
Dressed as Veenavari, Krishna tells Radha that i realised there is no happiness in this world that is why i pulled my mind away from the world and explains the reason for his detachment.
Guru's instructions are being followed by Radha without questions. There are so many critical gems of knowledge imbued in these Leelas for us souls to absorb and follow. Thanks so much for sharing!
Such a wonderful and lovely leela . Its rasa gets amplified exponentially when a great Bhakti Rasik like Swamiji so beautifully describes it. Koti Koti Pranaam at your Lotus feet . Its by immense grace of God that you became my guide.
Swami ji but nothing is beautiful than the Earth. And this rati of course is very beautiful and the flowers that she put on her hair are from the earth . Our motherland of course is less beautiful than rati from outside but from inside it is more beautiful than Devi rati. I am getting a lot of inspiration from your speech Swami ji thank you
