Father and son, went to a temple, suddenly son shouted after seeing the pillars of Lions at the entrance of the temple "Run Dad, or those Lions will eat us " Dad consoled him saying "they are just statues and wont harm us" Son replied " if those lion statues wont harm us then how could statues of God give us blessings" The father wrote in his diary... "I am still speechless on my childs answer and have started searching for God in Humans instead of statues. -- A good story which I read today. Not sure whether this has been penned by an agnostic or atheist. But forms a good question for discussion. What do you all think about this?
गोः means Cow, Bhoomi and Veda. These are the 3 primary meanings. So Gopala means - गाम् or गाः (objective case in 2nd vibhakti - in ekavachanam or bahuvachanam) पाति (maintains) - गां पाति इति गोपालः or गाः पाति इति गोपालः । In vigraha vaakyam Ekavachanam means protector of Bhoomi and Veda (Veda was one in Dwapara yuga). Bahuvachanam means protector of Cows.
