Pratibhu Deities / Shilas

In 1670, many of the original Deities of Vrindavana were moved to Jaipur. Their first stopping place was Radha-Kunda.Small replica temples of the original temples in Vrindavana were built at  Radha-Kunda. Pratibhu-murtis (expanded forms, non-different from the original Deities) were established at Radha-Kunda to honour the Lord's visit here, and the worship has been continued for  centuries. The residents of Radha-Kunda can visit the seven major temples of Vrindavana without ever leaving Radha-Kunda.

Conversation

Lord Krishna Said to Srimati Radharani, "O Radhe! As you are very dear to me, similarly this pond which is non-different from You is very dear to me. I will always come here to your beloved kunda to bathe with my friends.”

In reply Sri Radhika said, “ O Shyam, I will also come to your beloved kunda (Shyama Kunda) with my friends. Whoever in the future resides here or renders any kind of service, will become free from millions of sins, and will be very dear to me.

Purport

Living entities who are eager to return home to the transcendental kingdom of God, Goloka Vrindavana, by means of attaining their spiritual bodies (siddha-deha) should live at Radha-Kunda, take shelter of the confidential serving maids of Sri Radha and under their direction engage constantly in Her service. This is the most exalted method for those engaged in devotional service under the protection of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. In this connection Srila Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvati Takura writes that even great sages and great devotees like Narada and Sanaka do not get an opportunity to come to Radha-Kunda to take their baths.
