Raas Lila – A play of aesthetics or more broadly “dance of divine love" – here Bhikhari Thakur depicts the Krishna Bhakti tradition, the rasa-lila is considered to be one of the highest and most esoteric of Krishna's pastimes. In this tradition, romantic love between human beings in the material world is seen as merely a diminished, illusionary reflection of the soul’s original, ecstatic spiritual love for Krishna, God, in the spiritual world.

One of the finest works of Bhikhari Thakur. It takes me to a journey to a blue fairy land where deep inside me I found Radha dancing to the rhythm of life.

Rasleela is one of the divine acts performed by Lord Krishna along with gopis on the banks of Yamuna.It was an illusion of every gopi, that Krishna was dancing with her only.
