query about swakiya and parakiya bhav and their destination

I've read all of the acaryas primary books and I don't recall seeing any detailed descriptions of these two inner realms. We only have the asta-kaliya-lila which is solely based on parakiya-rasa.

According to Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura, in his commentaries to the 10th canto, there is both an aprakata (unmanifest) and prakata (manifest) aspect to bhauma-lila. We know what the manifest lila is but Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura doesn't go into any details about the aprakata bhauma-lila, other than to say that Krsna never leaves that Vrndavana.

So it may follow the asta-kaliya-lila model, which is what happens eternally in Goloka in the spiritual world in the inner most sanctum of Vrndavana.

Hare Krishna,

I was reading Srila Vishwanath Chakravarty Thakur's tika on Bhakti Rasamrit Sindhu and came across verse 1.2.303.

Those who have a desire to taste the sweetness of Rädhä and Kåñëa in Våndävana, but worship according to vaidhi-bhakti, using nyäsas and mudräs, do not attain Kåñëa in Dvärakä with Rukmiëé, because they do not have that aspiration. Nor can they attain Rädhä and Kåñëa in Våndävana, because they lack the worship on the path of räga. Therefore, since they have a predominance of awareness of Kåñëa as the Lord (äiçvarya-jïäna) in worship according to the path of rules (vidhi), they attain Rädhä and Kåñëa in a portion of Våndävana called Goloka, in correspondence to that worship. It is understood that they do not attain the Våndävana of pure sweetness.

so by reading above I get below understanding

In spiritual realm, Sri Goloka has swakiya and parakiya portions where Divine couple live simultaneously with wedded and non-wedded Bhav respectively.

is my understanding correct? if yes then my original question of this post makes sense as Srila Narayan Maharaj wrote below

By serving Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa in the mood of wedded love (svakīya), one will attain Goloka Vṛndāvana, and by serving in paramour love (parakīya), one will
attain Vraja-Vṛndāvana, the absolute innermost chamber of Golokadhāma, where Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa’s nikuñja-līlās take place.

Hare Krishna,

Thank you very much for the response.

I recently started reading Gopal champu as well, completed only first 2 chapters.

I get a feeling by reading Srila Jiva Goswami's work is that in Goloka Vrindavan Sri Sri Radha Krishna staying together like husband wife.

my reference are verse 161-166 of chapter 2.

background is Madhukanth and Snigdhkantha (twin Arjun trees) have arrived in Goloka in Sri Yashoda Maiya's house and then Krishna takes both of them in his room and meets Sri Radha.

161. Receiving the blessings and garments from Mother Yasoda, the two boys requested permission to depart. Taking the boys with Him, blissful Krsna entered His bedroom to take rest. He had the boys sit down. Then He sat down next to Sri Radha.

164. When Krsna introduced them, Sri Radha happily, gracefully, and playfully honoured the two saintly boys.

165. After sending the boys back to their uncle’s home, Lord Krsna entered His own charming palace.

166. Approaching Krsna, Radha respectfully offered Him a sitting place. She fanned Him and served Him in many ways. Then Krsna lay down on His bed. Then Radha withdrew from Krsna’s sight. To Her friends Radha said, “Please do not let Krsna ever know I am here.”


now when we read Govind Lilamrit or Krishna Bhavnamrit , the two Ashta Kala Lila books, we understand only parakiya bhav and how Divine couple go for abhisaar just at the end of pradosh lila from their own houses towards Kunja or some already decided place in Vrindavan for that day.

but by reading Gopal champu I got feeling that divine couple is staying in Sri Yashoda Maiya's house at night.

I personally is more interested in Parakiya bhav leela, so should I not read Gopal Champu? or am I not understanding properly Gopal champu ?

thanks in advance
