Dance and spiritual concept?[edit]

So, what does a particular folk dance (one of many about Krishna and the gopis) have to do re: explaining the theological concept of rasa? Since that should be the point of the article? If there's no expansion of this section that uses the dance as an example (say, breaking it into parts to illustrate various aspects of the theological concept) it should be removed.

We could do with some examples of rasa in theological terms from outside the ISKCON POV as well, as the article is yet another non-neutral one written from their perspective. Would be good to have examples of its usage in other forms of Hindu bhakti as well. Snowgrouse (talk) 21:00, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
