LEARN MORE
Sakha bhava refers to the devotional sentiment of divine friendship, an attitude best exemplified by the cowherd boys (gopas) of Braja. They do not have any inkling of His Godliness. They are a part of His divine pastimes, lilas. In this mood, the devotee views Shri Krishna not as the Supreme Lord, but as their closest friend and equal.
