The sahajiyas mean that the stories about Radha and Krishna are not real happenings, but a metaphor for dealings between a male and female lover on the earthly plane. On that note lets shortly examine the sattvika-bhavas involontary ecstatic symptoms: Stunned - from joy, fear, astonishment, depression, indignation Perspiration - from joy, fear, anger Hair standing on end - from astonishment, joy, fear Choked voice - from depression, astonishment, indignation, joy, fear Trembling - from terror, anger, joy Changing color - from lamentation, anger, fear Tears - from joy, anger, depression Fainting - from happiness, grief, Intensity What kind of highly over-emotional human kind is that depicting, that walks around and show these emotional symptoms? Definitively not humanity of today, or even what is desirable today. What I remember from iskcon and also what devotees of today think is that all emotional displays like this is maya, illusion, undesirable. So if this is to take place in normal dealings between men and women, a lot of change of mentality is required.
