拉妲

拉妲（梵語：राधा，羅馬化：Rādhā），也稱為拉迪卡（Radhika），是印度教的女神，也是黑天的首席配偶。她是愛、溫柔、同情和奉獻的女神。在經文中，拉妲被提及為吉祥天女的化身^[1]^[2]，也是至高無上的女神穆拉普拉克里蒂，她是奎師那的女性對應物和內在力量（hladini shakti）。^[3]^[4]^[5]陪伴着奎師那的所有化身。^[6]^[7]

拉妲的生日會在每年的拉妲什塔米節（英語：Radhashtami）慶祝。^[8]^[9]

在印度史詩中，她是黑天的伴侶，亦是性力的其中一個象徵。在《摩訶婆羅多》中，主要講述黑天如何說服阿周那作戰，對黑天自身的描述不多，只是輕描淡寫地描述拉妲。不過在《訶利世系》中，就有詳盡描寫黑天的身世，指拉妲與黑天是青梅竹馬的情侶，亦有講述兩人的愛情故事。
