Sri Radha created Navadvipa

In his Navadvipa Dham Mahatmya Praman Khanda ,Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura has described how Sri Radha created Navadvipa:

Here is a summary from the book Gauradesa:

Why Radharani created Navadvipa-Dhama

When Krshna descends His abode plus all of His associates and other paraphernalia also descend with Him and manifest as His holy dhama within the material realm.

song by the Vraja saint Sura das

on your order- i go to madhubana!

cara prahara vamsi vata bhatakyo

all day long I wander playing my flute

sanjha pade ghara ayo

How safe is the gas drilling in New Vrindavana?
