Dear Narahariji:
Thank you for your explanation. I take this to be your main message, even
in karmavAdi translations, the so-called Vedic references to cows and
horses do not talk about cows and horses!. I just wish that this
explantion is extended to the 'unkillable' cow too, since, the cow is
deinitely killable, they are killed in slaughter houses every day!. I do
not believe that the Vedic seers were ignorant of this simple fact.
If I may remind you, Sri Aurobindo explained the "unkillable cow", very
well, She is the Divine Mother, not a 'not to be killed' cow!
With best regards,
Dhruba.
