O noble king, listen as the sacred narrative unfolds, revealing the greatness of three extraordinary gifts—the butter-cow, the salt-cow, and the cotton-cow—each described in the Śvetavinītāśva narrative of the glorious Varāha Purāṇa. First, the butter-cow is to be fashioned with utmost care and devotion. Her lips are made from delicate flowers and luscious fruits, while her teeth are arranged with precision. Her dewlap is adorned with fine white threads, enhancing her beauty. Her udder is formed from fresh butter, and her legs from sugarcane, making her a symbol of nourishment and sweetness. She bears golden horns and silver hooves, and is further adorned with five precious gems, signifying prosperity and auspiciousness. Draped in a pair of cloths and decorated with fragrant flowers, she becomes a worthy offering. As the prescribed mantras for all cows are recited, the fresh butter—born as divine nectar and considered highly auspicious—is offered. After the rituals, the butter-cow is given to a householder Brahmin, along with the oblation and its essence. The gift is so potent that whoever witnesses the cow being given, along with their ancestors and descendants, is blessed. Even those who hear of this act with devotion, or who cause it to be heard, receive its merit. Thus concludes the chapter on the greatness of the butter-cow. Next, the salt-cow is described. On a ground carefully smeared and prepared, with black antelope skin and sacred grass laid above, a calf with four feet is crafted, its hooves made of sugarcane. The mouth is fashioned from jaggery, and teeth from fruit. Her eyes are made of gems, her ears from leaves, her tail from thread, her back from copper, and her hair from sacred grass. She is made to yield milk, embodying nourishment. After worshipping her with fragrant flowers and incense, the giver invokes the removal of afflictions caused by stars and planets. The salt-cow is then offered to a twice-born Brahmin of good conduct, learned in the Veda and its limbs, a Śrotriya who maintains the sacred fire. After worship and mantra recitation, sitting near the tail, the cow is covered with a pair of garments and a blanket is gifted. The Brahmin is honored according to the prescribed procedure, and the cow is offered with the recitation of sacred mantras. She is revered as the knower of taste among all beings and honored by all the gods. After giving the salt-cow, the giver remains for a day, and may also offer gold according to his capacity—whether a thousand, a hundred, or as he is able. Whoever hears this account with devotion, or causes it to be heard, receives its blessings. Thus ends the chapter on the greatness of the salt-cow. Finally, the greatness of giving a cotton-cow is revealed. This act is especially meritorious when performed at the solstice, during sacred conjunctions, at the beginning of an age, or for those afflicted by planetary influences, after witnessing troubling dreams or wonders. The cow is smeared with cow dung, and darbha grass and sesame seeds are spread upon her. She is worshipped with incense, lamps, and offerings, free from envy. The cotton-cow is prepared by weight, avoiding deceit in wealth, and the calf is made as a fourth part according to the rule. She is adorned with golden horns and silver hooves, completing her in every way with faith. The cow is to be given with one's own hand, with effort and sincerity. It is declared that by this act, the entire host of gods is sustained; without such offerings, none remain. Thus, O king, the sacred tradition extols the greatness of these gifts—the butter-cow, the salt-cow, and the cotton-cow—each bringing blessings to the giver, the recipient, and all who witness or hear of these acts with devotion.
