ataeva 'radhika' nama purane vakhane
SYNONYMS
krsna-vancha—of the desire of Lord Krsna; purti-rupa—of the nature of fulfillment; kare—does; aradhane—worship; ataeva—therefore; radhika—Srimati Radhika; nama—named; purane—in the Puranas; vakhane—in the description.
TRANSLATION
Her worship [aradhana] consists of fulfilling the desires of Lord Krsna. Therefore the Puranas call Her Radhika.
PURPORT
The name Radha is derived from the root word aradhana, which means "worship." The personality who excels all in worshiping Krsna may therefore be called Radhika, the greatest servitor.
