Krishna Raas Lila at Shree Shree Bijoy Govinda Temple, Manipur
From the archive record
Young Manipuri kid dressed as Lord Krishna performs Raas Lila dance at Shree Shree Bijoy Govinda Temple in Imphal, Manipur. The Raas Lila is the most important dance form in the Manipuri style. The theme revolves around the love of Krishna and the milkmaids (gopinis). Although the themes are romantic, we must remember that the Bhakti school of Hinduism considers physical love as a metaphor for spiritual longing. There are five Ras Lilas that deal with the divine love of Radha and Krishna. These are: Maharas, Vasantras, Kunjaras, Nityaras and Divaras. Other Ras deal with various aspects of Krishna's life such as Karnabheda (ear piercing), marriage, etc. The performance of Ras Lila is generally performed in a special enclosure in front of the temple called a Nat Mandap.
