Meaning of Radha Ashtami

Radha Ashtami falls on the Ashtami tithi of Shukla Paksha in the month of Bhadrapada.

It is best to visit Goddess Radha temples or ISCKON temple on this day to seek blessings. But if you can't visit the temple, you can worship the deity at home.

Prepare an asan and put a yellow cloth on it. Place the idols of Goddess Radha Lord Krishna. Offer flowers, panchamrit, bhog (kheer, fruits, and dry fruits)/ On this day special kirtans, bhajans, and Raslila performances are organised to glorify Radha’s unconditional love for Krishna. Many devotees read or listen to the Radha Ashtami Vrat Katha and recite Radha Sahasranama for spiritual upliftment.
