Raas Mahotsav is the celebration of the divine union of Lord Krishna with Radha and the other gopis of the Braj region
Here are some spiritual aspects of Raas Mahotsav worth knowing-
1. Raas Mahotsav commemorates the spiritual joy arising from the divine union of Jeevatma (human souls which signifies the Gopis) with that of Paramatma (Radha & Krishna who are entities of Supreme Godhead)
2. It signifies that pure devotion to God is the perfect way of establishing communication with Him
3. Devotion helps us in achieving Raas or transcendental bliss which cannot be compared at all to materialistic pleasures
4. One of the most significant spiritual meanings of Raas Mahotsav is that all living beings are equal irrespective of gender, caste or creed
5. This festival signifies that all living beings are actually pure divine souls clothed in the garb of human beings and are thereby equal in eyes of the Lord
6. Raas Mahotsav signifies that the divine love of God is beyond gender, caste, creed and is extremely pure
7. When all the desires of the jeev (human being) melt away in the fire of Bhakti (divine love), Gopi bhaav arouses and life gets rid of all the impurities and the true knowledge extinguishes ignorance within
8. This festival denotes how the Gopis of Braj left all their worldly activities to pay devotion to Lord Krishna to express their divine love and get spiritual joy on meeting Him
