The Cow of Perfect Fulfilment of Desires
                                     

Very soon Sol and Mani reached the next clearing, and their eyes shone when they saw an intimate scene full of divine silence. A herd of magnificent white cows with golden horns and golden hooves browsed on a large meadow.

Clothed in a white garment, delicately embroidered in gold, a radiant herdsman sat on a golden rock and milked one of the cows which turned its beautiful face full of loving devotion to him, looking at him with large and prudent eyes.

As the four streams of its snow-white golden gleaming milk ran into a richly decorated golden vessel, set with innumerable precious stones, and made it shine like the starry sky, the sun went up once again in the sky.

And the moon too rose on the opposite side of the horizon, and sun and moon flew swiftly towards each other like two lovers of heaven, full of glowing bliss, to embrace each other.
The gleaming starry firmament shone in infinite splendour between the two lovers.

Like eyes of bliss the stars glistened and twinkled towards the clearing - to the radiant head of the mighty sage and his celestial cow so that all around them the meadow too blossomed anew, and an all-fulfilling fragrance of nectar permeated all the spaces reaching to the sun, moon, and stars, as if it wanted to invite these great, noble witnesses of life to the golden event on this clearing.
