We should not discuss the rāsa-līlā generally. Because unless one is advanced in spiritual consciousness and Kṛṣṇa consciousness, they should not try to understand what is rāsa-līlā. It is very confidential. It is meant for the liberated souls, those who are liberated by devotional service. Actually, those who are engaged in devotional service, they are liberated. They are not within the material world.

Kṛṣṇa, superficially He has done so many things which is sinful for others. Just like this is . . . these are very, the great subject matters. This was questioned by Parīkṣit Mahārāja. Parīkṣit Mahārāja, when He danced with the girls of Vrajabhūmi, ''rāsa'' dance, so Parīkṣit Mahārāja inquired from Śukadeva Gosvāmī that, "Kṛṣṇa, who came to establish the principles of religion, how He danced with girls and wives of others?" That was explained that ''tejīyasāṁ na doṣāya'' ([[vanisource:SB 10.33.29|SB 10.33.29]]). ''Tejīyasāṁ na doṣāya''. Kṛṣṇa danced with others' wife or sister or other girls. They were all girls. They came at mid of . . . midnight to dance with Him. But they were also not material. That is spiritual. It requires little brain to understand. So Parīkṣit Mahārāja . . . Śukadeva Gosvāmī explained that these things should not be considered by the conditioned soul. They should not even dream of this. It is a different thing. And if you think that Kṛṣṇa has a fault because He danced with others' wives, so he explained that ''tejīyasāṁ na doṣāya. Tejīyasām'' . . . the . . . a thing which is very, very powerful, he is not contaminated. That is the conclusion. Just like the sun. The sun soaks water from urine. We pass urine somewhere, and the sun soaks the water, the urine. That . . . that is poisonous. That is infectious. But that sun does not become infected, because he's so powerful. If that is possible for ordinary, material things, how much powerful is Kṛṣṇa?

So we should not discuss the ''rāsa-līlā'' generally. Because unless one is advanced in spiritual consciousness and Kṛṣṇa consciousness, they should not try to understand what is ''rāsa-līlā.'' It is very confidential. It is meant for the liberated souls, those who are liberated by devotional service. Actually, those who are engaged in devotional service, they are liberated. They are not within the material world.
