	~~INTRODUCTION TEXT TO BE WRITTEN~~		Emotions form an integral part of human beings; they are avenues through which one can express himself, particularly his feelings. Sometimes, being emotional may not necessarily work in one's favour, and making decisions based purely on emotions is often considered a sign of weakness. In terms of Krishna Consciousness however, Vedic literature states that being emotionally receptive works well in one's favour as one is supposed to have a soft heart to be able to experience and spread the love of God.

'''(~~REFERENCE~~)'''}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|The risks involved in such love of Godhead (parakiya-rasa) make this emotion superior to the relationship in which such risk is not involved. The validity of such risk, however, is possible only in the transcendental realm\|Svakīya is the relationship with Kṛṣṇa as a formally married husband, and parakīya is the relationship with Kṛṣṇa as a paramour. Expert analysts have decided that the transcendental ecstasy of the parakīya mellow is better because it is more enthusiastic. This phase of conjugal love is found in those who have surrendered to the Lord in intense love, knowing well that such illicit love with a paramour is not morally approved in society. The risks involved in such love of Godhead make this emotion superior to the relationship in which such risk is not involved. The validity of such risk, however, is possible only in the transcendental realm. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā 4.50)'''}}

Some of these symptoms are dancing, falling down and rolling on the ground, singing and crying very loudly, bodily contortions, loud vibrations, yawning, deep breathing, disregard for others, the frothing of saliva, mad laughter, spitting, hiccups and other, similar symptoms. All these symptoms are divided into two divisions—śīta and kṣepaṇa. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Madhya-līlā 23.51)'''}}

Thus feelings of pleasure and pain arise constantly therein\|The heart of Lord Caitanya is the image of Śrī Rādhikā’s emotions. Thus feelings of pleasure and pain arise constantly therein. Lord Caitanya's heart was full of the feelings of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, and His appearance resembled Hers. Svarūpa Dāmodara has explained His attitude as rādhā-bhāva-mūrti, the attitude of Rādhārāṇī. One who engages in sense gratification on the material platform can hardly understand rādhā-bhāva, but one who is freed from the demands of sense gratification can understand it.

It is specifically mentioned here that one has to perform devotional service in full knowledge by visualizing the Absolute Truth. We can understand about the Absolute Truth by evolving transcendental knowledge, and the result of such transcendental knowledge will be manifested by renunciation.
