"Raganuga Bhakti is of five kinds: (1) Shanta [peace] as illustrated by the religion of Christ; (2) Dasya as illustrated by that of Hanuman to Rama; (3) Sakhya [friendship] as illustrated by that of Arjuna to Shri Krishna; (4) Vatsalya [affection] as illustrated by that of Vasudeva to Shri Krishna; (5) Madhura (that of the husband and wife) in the lives of Shri Krishna and the Gopikas."
