The Vaishnavites call him their lover-god for when he was quite young in Vrindavan, he captivated the hearts of the gopis (cowherdesses), married and unmarried. Legends galore speak of his innumerable love affairs with the gopis, who without any exception fell in love with him. Whenever the Lord played his flute at night, the gopis deserted their parents, husbands, and children and rushed to see him in the forest. There they danced the famous dance known as rasalila. The Lord divided himself into as many men as there were women wanting to dance, thereby creating in each woman the illusion that she was the woman the Lord had chosen to dance with. This scene is often depicted in art, showing a circle of women dancing, each with Krishna. The love of the gopis, the spiritualists aver, may not be viewed as sensuous and carnal but as the renunciation of the world and the breaking of all ties that bind the soul to the world.
