Sarama (Samskrit : सरमा) is the देवशुनी or divine Dog Mother, who serves Indra, the leader of devatas. The legend goes that Indra with the help of देवशुनी Sarama, and with the guidance of Angirasa rishi, locates the lost divine cows and releases them from captivity. In this context appears discussion between the Panis and Sarama in the 10th mandala of Rig Veda. This episode of stealing of the divine Cows || गोग्रहणम् by the Panis who are a class of tradesmen with no regard for yajnas or vedic principles is also mentioned in other ancient texts.<ref name=":0">Narayanacharya, K.

Panis are basically tradesmen who were prominent class of people along with Dasyus and Asuras, intelligent, powerful having a materialistic outlook. Nirukta describes them as tightfisted, shrewd business-minded people with no regard for yajnas and charity. The conflict between Indra and Panis was mainly due to the refusal of Panis to contribute Dana and Dakshina for Yajna. Wealth in those days was mainly the strength of cattle and property. <ref>Prasad, Prakash Charan.

This story of stealing the cows or Go grahana is interpreted by Indologists and their followers through the fake Aryan-Dravidian race theory. For them the Panis are the Mulnivasis, the original native people of India, and the Dravidians, were the dasyus.
