Ramayan has a doha

Jaiki rahi bhavana jaisi ,
prabnu murat tin dekhi taisi

Meaning How God looks or on your imagination and feeling
the omnipresent will show you the form that you want to see

then be it Shiva, Vishnu, Durga, Mother, father, guru, or any other form

yes definitely if the person has that Bhav

Sorry I dont😉

See Lord Krishna is a symbol of the Divine Sprit and all of us are a part of him and strive to be one with this Divine sport

All souls are a part of this spirit but have gone astray

And want to return

Again I am reminded of a song

Tum dhoondo mujhe gopal
main khoi gaiyaa teri





So here its a complementary relationship of union
but still if someone wants to thin k of him as the father then so he shall be

It depends on what relationship u keep with God.If u feel that God is my friend who is with me all the time like a true friend then God is ur friend.Similarly if u feel that Godesses are my mothers and we are all their children then they are our mothers.So it depends upon a individual as to what relationship he/she has to create with God.Meera called Krishna her husband and started worshipping him.So that's her way of devotion.

thats is what is means

Jaiki Rahi Bhavana jaisi
Prabhu murat tin dekhi taisi

And there are so many people who show shades of so many relations with Krisha

Radha
Meera
Kuvaja
Surdas
Yashoda

Main bhi aap sabhi ke baato se sahmat hun. Phir bhi main aap logo se ek aur sawal puch na chahta hun. Aap logo mein se kaun kis bhagvaan ko maan te hain aur aap unse kaunsa rishta rakhte hain?
