Kamdhenu cow

Listing ID #2731319

Kamadhenu (sanskrit: कामधेनु kāmadhenu), also known as surabhi (सुरभि surabhī), is a divine bovine-goddess described in vedic scriptures as the mother of all cows. She is a miraculous "cow of plenty" who provides her owner whatever he desires and is often portrayed as the mother of other cattle as well as the eleven rudras. In iconography, she is generally depicted as a white cow with a female head and breasts or as a white cow containing various deities within her body. All cows are venerated in hinduism as the earthly embodiment of the kamadhenu. As such, kamadhenu is not worshipped independently as a goddess, and temples are not dedicated to her honor alone; rather, she is honored by the veneration of cows in general throughout the observant indian population.
