When Shiva Joined Krishna’s Raas Leela | Sadhguru

Raas Leela, the joyful dance of Krishna and the gopis has been immortalized in legend. Sadhguru looks at its significance, and explains why even Shiva, the Mahadeva, was attracted to it.

Sadhguru describes Shiva, the Adiyogi or first yogi, as the ultimate outlaw, because he is one who has touched that dimension which is beyond the physical.

Sadhguru looks at the nature of the being that we call Krishna, and explains how he was a multifaceted, extremely capable being.

Sadhguru narrates the story of Bhrigu, one of Shiva’s direct disciples and a great devotee, for whom Shiva became Ardhanari or half-man, half-woman. Sadhguru also explains the significance of nurturing the masculine and feminine equally within oneself to become a full-fledged life, and to know the ultimate nature of existence.
