Sri Radhashtami – Appearance of Srimati Radharani

Sri Radhashtami honours Srimati Radharani, the eternal pleasure potency (Hladini-shakti) of Lord Krishna and universal Mother of all souls. Falling on the eighth day of the bright fortnight in the month of Bhadra, this year’s festival will be celebrated on Sunday, August 31, 2025. Devotees fast until noon, praying for Radha’s mercy—the key to attaining Krishna’s love.
