Why does Syamasundara Krsna have a 3-bending form ?

I've been told it's an indication of His "crooked" character, in contrast to that of His female counterpart Srimat Radharani. It's all right their in black and white, is it not? Of course, devotees appreciate how Their differences are complimentary, enabling so many wonderful Divine pastimes.

The tribhanga pose is like a hook... this Krishna is very dangerous. He will get inside of you, and you can never get Him out. Even if you want to escape Him, the three-bending form remains lodged in your heart...

 

Even if it brings you poverty, makes you lose your friends and family, even makes society disdain you... still you will follow this Syamasundara to the ends of the earth...

 

You are His puppet, this loving, lovely Shyam....
