Abstract
One of the significant branches of medieval literature is the Vaishnav Padavali. Vaishnav Padavali is primarily composed centering around Mahapravu Chaitnyadev and based on the love story of Radha-Krishna. However, this love is not ordinary human love; it is divine. When a devote attains the grace of god, and as a result, the desire for the four worldly pursuits disappears from the devotee’s heart, then the union between the devotee and God takes place. The awakening of pure consciousness in the devotee’s heart is referred to as ‘love’ in Vaishnava Padavali. In this work Ujjwalnilmoni, Rup Goswami explains that the feeling of love which arises before union- through hearing and seeing, and which awakens the hearts of the hero and heroine, is called Purvaraga. Various poets of Padavali have portrayed Radha and Krishna in such a way they have spread the eternal massage of love throughout the world. Many poets have composed verses on the theme of Purvaraga, but each has expressed it an a unique way. In some poems Radha appears as a young ascetic, whose desires remain unfulfilled and turn into the pain of separation. In others, Radha-Krishna become overwhelmed upon seeing each other, wandering in a dreamlike world and expressing their love to the entire universe. Through direct or indirect vision of each other, an intense emotional of love is revealed. Among the various emotional stages centered on the love of Radha and Krishna, Purvaraga is considered the most significant.
