Rajashekhara Dasa
From the book “Chaurasi-kosa Vraja Mandala Parikrama”:
This place is famous due to the erotic pastimes known as rati-krida that took place here between Krishna and the gopis of Vraja. The village is called Ratu or sometimes Ratanu and is derived from the word ‘rati’, which means ‘transcendental lust’.
