Radhakrishna Pooja is a devotional ritual that honors the divine love between Lord Krishna and Radha, symbolizing the union of the soul (Radha) with the divine (Krishna). This Pooja is especially popular among devotees of Lord Krishna and is celebrated with deep devotion, particularly in regions like Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. The ritual is also observed during important festivals such as Janmashtami and Radhashtami.

The significance of Radhakrishna Pooja lies in the spiritual relationship between Radha and Krishna, representing the highest form of love and devotion, transcending material attachments. Radha is often considered Krishna's most beloved devotee, and their love story is viewed as an allegory for the soul's yearning for union with the Divine.

The Pooja usually begins with the purification of the worship space and the setting up of beautifully decorated idols or images of Radha and Krishna. The idols are adorned with vibrant garments, jewelry, flowers, and peacock feathers, which are symbolic of Krishna's playful and divine nature. Incense, oil lamps (diyas), and fragrant flowers are offered as part of the ritual.

Devotees perform various offerings during the Pooja, including fruits, sweets (especially butter, which was a favorite of Krishna), milk, and other traditional items. Devotional hymns and songs, particularly bhajans dedicated to Radha and Krishna, are sung throughout the ceremony. The chanting of mantras, especially the "Hare Krishna" mantra, plays a central role in invoking the divine presence and creating a spiritual atmosphere.

The Pooja is marked by joyous and heartfelt devotion, where devotees focus on the virtues of love, purity, and surrender. Radha's unwavering devotion to Krishna is considered a model for spiritual aspirants, who seek to cultivate a pure heart and a deep connection with the divine.

In many places, Radhakrishna Pooja is also accompanied by Rasleela performances—traditional dances and dramas that depict the divine love and playful pastimes of Radha and Krishna with the Gopis (milkmaids) of Vrindavan. These performances are a vibrant part of the celebration, bringing the mythology to life and immersing devotees in the spiritual essence of Krishna’s teachings.
