Some Lesser Known Facts About Sri Radha Raman Temple
- According to the legend, Gopala Bhatta Gosvami once saw a dream in which God instructed him to make a trip to Nepal. He bathed in Kali-Gandaki river in Nepal. Several Shaligrama Shlas entered his pot when he dipped into the river. He dropped them back into the river but Shilas re-entered the pot when he refilled it. He came back with all the twelve Shaligrama to Vrindavan and started worshipping them. On a Purnima (full moon) day, in the evening, Gopala Bhatta put the Shilas in a wicker basket and covered them to rest after offering naivedhya and went to rest himself. He went to take bath in Yamuna river in early morning on returning he saw one of Shaligramas converted into a Deity of Lord Krishna playing flute. Now the temple has one deity in the form of Tri-Bhangananda-Krishna and eleven Shilas.
