Krishna and Radha
19. Jahrhundert | L. Gstettner
Krishna's relationship with Radha, in the spiritual sense his power and energy embodied as Shakti, is regarded as the ideal relationship between man and woman, as modelled by many couples in India. In their spiritual, but also erotic love, both the love of God for man and the longing love for God are externalised.
