Radha Vinode
A Comprehensive Guide to Śrī Vṛndāvana Dhāma
This is a small temple, located up some stairs on Tripoliya Bazaar Road. Radha-Vinod was installed by Lokanatha Gosvami, who is mentioned in the Guru Vandana prayers. He was the first devotee sent to Vrindavana by Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. His most famous dicisple was Narottama dasa Thakura, who was a great poet. He composed many glorious Vaishnava songs in praise of Lord Krsna. The Radha Vinod deity is only about 12 inches tall. There are at least 15 shalagrama-shilas worshipped here.
Lokanatha Gosvami resided in Vrindavan near the place called Chatravan. From Kishori Kunda in Umaraa Village. He discovered the deity of Radha-Vinod, and he established the deity in a temple in Vrindavana. Radha-Vinod were later installed in the Gokulananda Temple. These Deities were later moved to a temple in Jaipur due to fearing possible attacks by the Muslims.
Directions
This temple is somewhat difficult to locate. From the Radha Damodara temple, walk back to the Tripoliya Bazaar Road and go left. Walk about 50-60 steps until you see a set of stairs on the left. There is a small sign, Rex Color Lab. On the right of the stairs is a hose shop, #295. The building does not look like a temple. Go up one flight of these stairs.
