ALL beings are expressing a sequence of devotional service events in their pure spiritual relationships with God. The primordial relationship is as with Sri Govinda. Everything is but an expansion, an enhancing variety to embellish or comment upon and enhance that original relationship between Radha Krsna.
Friendly relations, it is till two enjoyers, ie competing males together, for fun and with hearty affection, camaraderie and loyalty. In parental relations, one can forget about any competitions, one becomes the care-taker of the Lord, and thus more intimate, selfless, of necessity of the roles, such as Mother or Caregiver.
The primordial or original simple essence of the spirit of pure intimacy resides with Radha Krsna. Simple loving natural affection between a young boy and a young girl are considered without material duplicity or wandering attentions. In the spiritual skies, all that is Holy emanates from that Divine Relationship. for real, that is the Source, the Fountainhead, of all bliss and wonder and power. All else is a tasteful manifestation, in part, of the original intimate closeness, in varying distances of formality. There are many tasteful and compatible cultural variations in which to express that love and happiness eternal.
This is not a mere descriptive thing, but a description of the Divine energies of bliss and their mechanics, within a very real and attainable realm or world of divine energies and blissful realizations of variety within it's spiritual hierarchies and varieites.
