Radha Bhakti…
Rukmini noticed Krishna gazing intently at a person to her side. That person, too, was casting looks on Krishna. Krishna slowly and softly said, “Rukmini! Do you know Radha? She is an ardent devotee of Mine.” Hearing this, Rukmini got down from the vehicle and rushed close to Radha and after exchanging pleasantries, invited her to spend some time with her in the palace, in Dwaraka. Accordingly, on the following day, Radha went to Dwaraka. Rukmini received Radha at the main entrance and escorted her into the palace. Radha stayed with Rukmini in the palace for some time, talking about Krishna and singing the glories of Krishna. They began sharing the joys of their experiences with Lord Krishna. Rukmini served hot milk to Radha, so that she could be with her for some more time and talk a little longer about Krishna, as she would sip the milk slowly. But, Radha gulped the whole cup of hot milk at once. All the same, the conversation went on for some time and then, Radha left the palace for her village.
Krishna returned in the evening, very much tired. He said to Rukmini, “Rukmini! Look! I am very tired and exhausted; I have a burning sensation in My Feet, it is unbearable.” Rukmini noticed some blisters on His Feet and wondered how and why such a thing happened to Him. Krishna then said, “Rukmini! You served very hot milk to Radha this afternoon, when she came to visit you in response to your invitation, didn’t you? Radha drank the whole lot at one gulp. As My Feet are located in her heart, the hot milk spilt on My Feet and so, you now find blisters there, where I feel the burning sensation.” This was the level of Radha’s devotion.
