If one is considered as the yin, the other would be yang.
If one is black then the other would be white,one is the essence of male the other would be the essence of female.Just the way we would describe Shiv and Shakti.
Now they both manifested as human beings in the bygone era and played out their armouros raas leelas in the grooves of Brindavan.
We have always heard the Srimad Bhagvad talk about the past times of theirs and their constant quarrels which went off and on. Why would two of the most beloved Gods of the Indian Pantheon want to fight about? And for What reason?
What one had the other didn't have and hence the constant reason for understanding what the other had to offer was the cause of fights.Let me tell you by examples here. Can the right ear see the left ear?Can the North pole know about the South poles power of attraction? Can the male understand the exact emotions of the female? Can one lover say the exact feelings of the other? No way.
We can try to understand but can never emulate it ever!
So Krsna tried hard to know the exact feelings of Radha and the reverse was true too.
They could neither get to be the other since they were cut out of the One only. Thats the reason why we say that the two will make the whole but one independently can never make it complete. They complimented each other perfectly.
It is not about male or female but about conjoining to become the Whole!
Just the way the yin fits into the yang to make it whole.
They both cannot be the same otherwise they will be pushed poles apart but to join they have to be opposite and attract!
Hence the saying that they used to fight with each other only to come more closer to each other.It would be termed as a armorous play of consummation of the body and soul for understanding the truth!
Without the soul there can never be the body and without the body,the soul will never have existence. So either of them are required to make it work.
The factor of compatibility comes if they have to live together but they were far away from each other,yet one! Look at it from the point of the soul and the body. They both are One but the body has its ego which does not allow it to know the soul.
Only when the ego is demolished can the soul be experienced! Without the body, that too cannot be experienced, so the body has equal importance. We can only go to the unmanifest through the manifest....hence Radha's importance is as much as Krsna's.So the manifest(Radha) can only take us to the unmanifest(Krsna), so we call out to them Radhekrsna!!
