The Legend of Krishna and the Ashta Sakhis – Divine Companionship in Vrindavan
In the divine forest of Vrindavan, Lord Krishna's leelas were not just play—they were sacred acts of devotion and union. Eight sakhis—Lalitha, Vishaka, Champakalatha, Chitra, Tungavidya, Indulekha, Rangadevi, and Sudevi—were Radha’s closest friends and Krishna’s dearest devotees. Each Sakhi played a crucial role in arranging meetings between Radha and Krishna, guiding the course of their divine love.
Their hearts beat with devotion, their actions reflected pure service, and their lives revolved around Krishna’s joy. It is believed that these Sakhis were not just companions but spiritual forces who personify different aspects of devotion—compassion, loyalty, sweetness, strength, and divine playfulness.
Depicting this sacred companionship in your Kolu bommai arrangement honors the feminine divine and the soul’s longing for God—a message at the heart of the Bhakti movement.
