considered Auspicious by Hindus,Gomatha is also called as Kamadhenu.There is nothing that is more sacred or sanctifying than cows.The
Gomatha as the name says She plays the role of a mother giving enlightment of
Truth, Wisdom and Prosperity. One who adores and does puja is granted all the
desires and has the blessings of the three main Goddesses Lakshmi, Durga and
