Lord Krishna enchants the world, but Radhya enchants even him!
RADITYA means Surya – the Sun.
Ra is the ancient Egyptian deity of the Sun. One of the most important Gods in ancient Egyptian religion, Ra ruled in all parts of the created world: the sky, the earth, and the underworld. He was believed to have ruled as the first pharaoh of Egypt. He was the God of the sun, order, kings and the sky.
Ra in Sanskrit means Fire and strength.
Aditya refers to the offspring of Aditi, the goddess representing infinity.
