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.
