Sri Radha Raman Temple

Sri Radha Raman Temple is one of the most sacred and revered temples in Vrindavan, dedicated to Lord Krishna in His Radha Raman form—meaning “the one who gives pleasure to Radha.” This temple holds a special place in Gaudiya Vaishnavism and is renowned for housing a self-manifested (Swayambhu) deity of Krishna.

ॐ राधारमणाय नमः॥
Om Radharamanaaya Namah
(Salutations to Radha Raman, the beloved of Radha)
श्रीकृष्ण गोविन्द हरे मुरारे।
हे नाथ नारायण वासुदेव॥

― Sri Radha Raman Temple

Although Radha Rani does not have a separate deity here, She is worshipped in the form of a crown placed beside the deity of Radha Raman ji, symbolizing Her constant spiritual presence.

Mythological Significance & History

The temple was established in 1542 AD by Gopal Bhatta Goswami, one of the six Goswamis of Vrindavan, who were close associates of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
Gopal Bhatta once had 12 Shaligram Shilas (sacred stones) from Nepal.
One day, he felt a deep desire to see Krishna in His deity form.
Miraculously, on Narasimha Chaturdashi, one of the Shilas transformed into a beautiful deity of Lord Krishna—Radha Raman ji.
Since then, the deity has been continuously worshipped, and the temple is a living center of unbroken seva (service) and devotion.

Significance of the Temple

Radha Raman ji is one of the very few original deities of Vrindavan still residing in the original temple since the 16th century.
The deity is self-manifested (Swayambhu)—not carved by human hands—which makes this temple extraordinarily sacred.
Unlike most temples, Radha Raman is not just a symbolic form but a fully expressive, human-like idol, about 12 inches tall, known for His charming smile and divine beauty.
The temple is deeply connected to the Gaudiya Vaishnava Sampradaya and regularly visited by saints and followers of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

Architecture of the Temple

The temple reflects a blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture.

Built using red sandstone, the structure is modest in size but rich in intricate carvings, lattice windows (jalis), and arched gateways.

The Garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) houses the original deity of Radha Raman, with a crown or silver seat placed beside Him to represent Srimati Radharani.

The interior resonates with kirtans, shlokas, and traditional instruments, enhancing the spiritual ambiance. environment…
