The lower part of the radical looks like an arrow pointing upward, “raising” the three lines above it.

the bottom part of the character is supporting the top; thus raising it

it looks like a person with two hands and legs, trying to RAISE three heavy logs so one the legs are bent and wobbly.

Four hands are on the bottom and they are working to ‘raise’ up a happy child.

same character of the sheep radical with the vertical line leaning to the left. add another stroke to the right (this looks like a leash), and add two more strokes under it that looks like two pillars. to RAISE a sheep is to put a leash on it and build two pillars (for a house) so that it can sleep
