"Krishna did not steal butter from others' houses for its taste. There is an underlying message in this Leela (divine play). Here, butter symbolises pure heart. Wherever there is a pure heart, Krishna goes there. Such a pure heart will be soft and sweet. The hearts of Gopis were ripened with devotion. They were pure, soft and nectarine. Hence Krishna would go their houses to steal their hearts."
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse - 6.9.2004)
