Radha Krishna
Haribol,
Krishna = All attractive Supreme Lord
Radha = Internal Potency of the Lord
Wherever there is Radha, there is Krishna. One cannot exist without the other.
Krishna had relation with Radha outside of marriage, true. But, Krishna is God, Radha is Goddess - they are not limited by material qualifications of moral behaviour. If they were, how could they be classified as God?
A legitimate question would be 'if Krishna is trying to guide the world on religious principles, why does He engage with women outside of marriage?'
The answer to that is that Krishna comes on earth to do two things. One, to defeat irreligious principles, such as demonic kings like Duryodhana. More importantly, however, he comes on earth to give pleasure to his devotees. Radha is Krishna's dearest devotee. Krishna therefore satisfies her without regard to material morals. How are we to distinguish between the behaviour of Krishna that we should follow and the behaviour that we should not imitate? That is the whole point of guru. Guru explains what is Krishna's instructions and what is Krishna's lila. Instuctions we follow. Lila we admire but DO NOT imitate.
Hope that helps.
Hare Krsna
