Here is something about Siddha Krsna das Babaji off Govardhana:

http://www.dharmakshetra.com/articles/Siddha%20Krishna%20Das%20Baba...

Regarding Diwali and Govardhana puja it has been mentioned by Siddha Krsna das that Radha Krsna and all Their associates comes from Nandagrama and Varsana and Yavat and worship Govardhana and do Diwali festival there also at Manasa Ganga, This is an eternal festival where they all stay in tents next to Govardhana during this lila.All the cows and calves are also there...this is 2 days before the full moon in kartika and the area from Manasi Ganga to Govinda Kunda is cleansed for the performance of Diwali and Govardhana puja.That night Radha Krsna and the Gopis perform Rasa lila ar nearby Candra Sarovara laka at Govadhana,Next morning on Diwali Nanda Maharaja orders the raising of canopies at Manasi Ganga and all the bathing Ghats are cleansed.Radha and all the Gopis cooks a huge feast while fully absorbed in love for Krsna
At night the Manasa Ganga is fully decorated with so many lamps.
At night again Radha Krsna has Rasa lilas at Candra Sarovara and next day Govardhana is worshipped.Nanda Maharaja arranges so many brahmanas worship Govardhana and the abhiseka is done with Pancamrta only (this was also later shown by Madhavendra Puri when he rediscovered Gopal and did the Annakuta festival also with Pancamrta only (not with colored waters etc as some do nowadays in ISKCON, we should not concoct bhakti)
The Brahmanas cook a huge feast to Govardhana as does Radha and the sakhis .The Govardhana appears, actually Krsna Himself is Govardhana and in one form sits next to Nanda maharaja and in another from assumes the form of Giriraja to eat all the offerings,Giriraja eats tons of prasadam and more and more is brought to Him.Annyore, annyore is the words spoken by Giriraja and Krsna tells to offer tulsi and then only is He Govardhana fully satisfied) ,(Lord Caitanya instructed Srila Raghunath Das Goswami to offer 8 manjaris to Giriraja daily and offer Sandesh or Gaja),
Then Giriraja is offered pan, Garlands and Sandalwood that is offered in huge amounts,
Then artik is offered
A huge ghee lamp is offered
Then The Brijabasis asks Giriraja what will please Him after they pay obaisences: "He tells them that His Parikrama will please Him and worship of the cows and Brahmanas"
Then Govardhana Parikrama is done after that a feast is there and Nanada maharaja gives charity to the Brahmanas and Go puja is performed. This lila was a yearly lila, and not just when Krsna punished Indra.and lifted Govardhana.

Srila Visvanath Chakravati Thakura has prayed:

vina bhavet kim hari-dasa-varya-            padasrayam bhaktir atah srayami       yam eva saprema nijesayoh sri-            govardhano me disatam  abhistam

 

WIthout taking shelter of the feet of the hill that is the best of Lord  Hari's servants and full of love for the divine king and queen, how is it  possible to attain pure devotional service? May Govardhana Hill fulfill my  desire.

and we should always pray to Srimati Radharani especially in this month of Kartika.
vina radha-prasadena krishna-praptir na jayate tatah shri-radhika-krishnau smaraniyau su-samyutau "Without the mercy of Shrimati Radhika, one can never attain Krishna. Therefore one must remember them together, as They are always nicely situated by each others' side." (Shrila Dhyana-chandra Goswami's Paddhati) prema-bhaktau yadi sraddha mat prasadam yadicchasi tada narada bhavena radhaya radhako bhava Shri Krishna says: "O Narada!! If you have faith in the process of prema-bhakti and wish to attain my favour, then please become the worshipper of Shrimati Radharani in the mood of ecstatic emotion." (Bhavisyottara Purana) satyam satyam punah satyam satyam eva punah punah vina radha prasadena mat-prasado na vidyate Shri Krishna says: "O Narada! I tell you truly truly, again truly, truly, again and again - without the mercy of Shrimati Radharani, one cannot attain my mercy." (Narada Purana)
