śrī rādha --- is a maha bhava - 'an ecstatic concept about an exquisite beauty...' and she is the cynosure of this mini-epic gita govindam or Gita Govinda of Jayadeva. This work Gita Govindam is a lyrical dance-drama, plussed with the then romantics, poetic aesthetics and what not with a theme of vipralambha sringara - anguish in separation and joy in uniting of divine couple rādha and Krishna. The poet sings to the joy of Krishna, wishing him to be always joyous togetherness of rādha, addressing him variously like Govinda, Maadhava, Hari, Keshava etc., according to the situation, and hence it is called Gita Govindam, like bhaja govindam i.e., devout yourself unto Govinda. For easy comprehension we have put all the names as Krishna. And rādha is none else than Krishna, the very fount of his lila sakti creative power. She transmutes his glory into prema ananda, the zenith of blissful happiness, in which alone he takes pleasure. This is the idea of gita govindamnse form of love in all its moods and phases.
