braja dhama (Devanagari: ब्रज धाम; ISO 15919: braja dhāma) is the eternal, divine abode located in the middle of Golok, where Shri Radha Krishna perform Their most intimate pastimes (lilas). It is often referred to simply as Braj.

🗺️ The Holy Land Descended

Approximately 5,000 years ago, this holy land descended along with Shri Radha Krishna to Earth. The present-day area surrounding Mathura and Vrindavan in Uttar Pradesh, India is called Braj Dham for this reason. This is where The Divine Couple performed Their most profound pastimes of divine love.

🔑 Exclusive Access

Access to the eternal Braja Dhama is exclusive to those devotees who worship Shri Radha Krishna with Madhurya Bhav (the devotional sentiment of loving conjugal relationship).
