She is in you. She is in me. She is in the world we see. As Radha, she is romance: flirtatious and enchanting. She is that playful smirk, teasing glance and charming smile. She is joy, cheerfulness, laughter and bliss. She is in the conviction that love is worth any pain, and the confidence that love is incomparable. She is love that is unconditional and unbroken. She is our ability to give completely, wholly, and forever. We see Radha in us when we boldly express our affection and as devotion, when our hearts love so completely. We see her in love that fulfils itself.

Kali is freedom unhibited. A boundless force, she is always present in the moment, magnificent, spontaneous and open. How unbound are you? By your desires, by judgements and comments? She is in you.
