According to the Bhagavad Purana, Krishna is the epitome of love and thus asks for the devotee’s complete surrender to him. A surrender that is unconditional, that doesn’t ask but just loves. And it is believed that once a devotee can achieve that surrender onto him, Krishna becomes a devotee to them just as much. It is this idea that the Leela of the ghat is, also, meant to show. The natkhat Krishna, stealing the gopis’ clothes, leading to negotiations, anger, and praying from the gopis, before he himself jumps into the water too.

𝐋𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐚 • लीला • லீலா
The word 𝐋𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐚 in sanskrit, is impossible to translate. While it has many meanings based on different philosophies that have been worked through interpretations of Vedas and Upanishads over centuries, the one meaning that can be surmised is the following - all reality, including the cosmos, as the outcome of creative play by the divine absolute. Krishna ~ the perfect man, and the perfect God. The 'Purna Purshottam' with all 16 gunas within Him since birth, is also a material manifestation of this 'creative play' in a God avatar.Krishna is the one who takes away the lower meanings of the word 'illusion' and instead puts it on a new realm - that of something conceived by the Divine, for the humanity.

Radha’s eternal, youthful beauty as described in our texts is a source of overwhelming inspiration to her bhakts, especially in Braj. In the Brahma Vaivarta Purana, she has been described as a goddess with the complexion of molten gold, wearing garlands of precious gems and flowers, and is often adorned in a traditional saree or ghagra choli at all her temples.

Every love story, Divine or not, begins somewhere. After all, if everything is a part of his Leela ~ his own birth, his presence in Gokul, his meeting with Radha and them falling in love ~ all is orchestrated by him. The first step can be bound by strong memories of love and togetherness or literally be the first encounter of the two lovers. But it is always...attraction. In the Mahabharata, Arjun describes him with Lotus like eyes, soft and charming facial features, and the blue aparajita flowers. He is known as “Manmohan”, the one who is pleasing to the heart and soul. The prankster, the rasik, the devotee who touches her feet. The King and warrior who must leave for his duties.
