While most people know why Diwali is celebrated, many don’t know that it actually begins with the worship of cows. Vasu Baras is a day dedicated to worshipping the cow and marks the 1st day of Diwali. According to the Hindu calendar, the 12th day of Krishna Paksha in the month of Kartik is Vasu Baras. This year, that day is November 12.
In Hindu mythology, cows are considered sacred and an incarnation of God. The day is also referred to as Vasubaras, Govatsa Dwadashi or Nandini Vrat in various regions. However, the festival is most prominently celebrated in the state of Maharashtra where it is associated with honouring cows and calves.
The origin of this festival is related to the mythology of Samundra Manthan, a time when Gods and Demons were vying to find amrut or magical nectar by churning the ocean. The divine cow Kamdhenu emerged in this process as a gift from the seven great Gods. Kamdhenu is associated with blessings of motherhood, fertility, divinity, and sustenance. The divine animal is also closely associated with Lord Krishna, Vishnu avatar.
Here is how you can wish your friends and family on this auspicious day:
