There are so many tales…So many legends…
I am Kamadhenu, symbol of the earth.
I represent life.
I am worshipped, garlanded on festivals. I am largely depicted as white cow with a female head and breasts.
Some say I am the daughter of Lord Daksha, some believe I am the wife of sage Kashyapa.
Some say I was in the possession of Sage Jamadagni and the enemy kings tried to steal me from him.
In the epic Ramayana, it is said that I was given as dowry to Goddess Sita when she married Lord Rama and I travelled with my siblings to her new home in Ayodhya.
In the Mahabharata, Bhishma Pitama declared me as the mother of the world.
