The Radha Vallabha Sampradaya (Sanskrit: राधावल्लभसम्प्रदाय, romanized: Rādhāvallabhasampradāya)[4] is a Vaishnava Hindu denomination which began in 1535 at Vrindavan with the bhakti sant Hith Harivansh Mahaprabhu (1502–1552).[5] Harivansh's views are related to Krishnaism, but emphasises devotion to the goddess Radha as the Supreme Being.[6][1][7][8][9]
