In Krishna"s life, the whole happening of 'Ras Leela' is one of causeless love, the Divine love that permeates the entire universe. Ras Leela is misinterpreted by many people as Krishna having a physical relationship with the cowherd women. Understand, Krishna is a superconscious being and Ras Leela happened when Krishna was around eight years old! It is in no way related to any physical relationship. It was a pure and causeless spiritual happening.

Radha, Krishna"s beloved, was attached to Krishna, but she never really experienced pure joy. She had constant mood swings with possessiveness and jealousy. During Ras Leela, Krishna, as a superconscious being, gave her the experience of seeing him simultaneously with every single cowherd girl present there. He wanted to show her that he is in every physical form, not just in his own form. Such is the manifestation of divine loving beings!
