Shri Ji (Ladli Ju Maharaj) Mandir
About temple:
  • Perched atop one of the hills in Barsana stands the Shrijis Temple, home to the original Radha Krishna Deities of Barsana. The term "Shriji" locally refers to Radha Rani. According to the Varah and Padma Puranas, Shri Krishna, pleased with Brahmas devoted worship at the end of Satya Yug, instructed him to take the form of a hill in Brsabhanupura. This hill, known as Brahma-parvat, is where the temple of Shri Laadli Laal now stands. Established around 5000 years ago by King Vajranabh, the great-grandson of Shri Krishna, this temple holds significance as it houses the lost deities of Lord Krishna and Radha. Over time, the deities were lost, but Narayan Bhatt, a disciple of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, rediscovered and installed them in the Ladli Lal Temple, emphasizing the cherished bond between Lord Krishna and Radha.
  • The Ladli Lal Temple on Brahma-parvat not only reflects the historical connection to King Vajranabh but also symbolizes the intimate relationship between Lord Krishna and Radha. "Ladli" translates to the beloved daughter, while "Lal" denotes the beloved son. Therefore, the temple, enshrining the deities of Lord Krishna and Radha, is affectionately known as Ladli Lal Temple. This sacred site bears witness to the preservation of divine connections across generations, from the time of King Vajranabh to the rediscovery by Narayan Bhatt, ensuring the continuation of the sweet pastimes of Shri Krishna in the hearts of devotees.
