== The Go suktas ==
Let’s analyze the go sukta from the Rg veda (10.169). There are only 4 mantras in this sukta, which addresses the cows as devatas. The mood of these verses are as follows. This sukta is addressed to Rudra deva says,<blockquote>“Let the wind blow pleasingly towards the cows and let the cows enjoy the nourishing milk and the nice grass. Let them drink water which is pleasing and makes life satisfying. This cow which is providing  “Jiva dhanya” (life-sustaining grains) to us, let such cows be satisfied as they stand on their own feet.”</blockquote>Agnidev understands those cows who have got similar forms  or different kinds of form or same size through yoga. The rishis of Angirasa kula, the great ||tapasvis () created the cows. These cows are beneficial to the cause of yajna. Let such cows be given unlimited satisfaction by the ||Parjanya (God of rain). The cows offer themselves to those devatas  who are qualified to perform the yajna. Only Soma deva understands their entire form,

Only Soma deva understands their entire form,<blockquote>“Hey Indradeva, please bring them to our cow shed, the cows which are full of milk and one who are always giving children. The paramatama who is the creator has given this cow to me to whom all the glorification is made by me. After the ||pitris () and ||pitridevas () being permitted, let these auspicious cows on their own, let them be tied in cow shed, only because of (go-santan) the family of cows, lets become happy and prosperous.</blockquote>

== Itihasic explanation of the Sukta ==
If one see the above suktas only from the historic perspective, what would one see? It would be only the fake concept of the aryas who came from some foreign land looking for food and waer for their people and their cows sake. Apasrt from being shallow story this is a concocted story of the Western self-styled historians. The superficial explanation form this perspective seems only a prayer made for cows. It seems incoherent, for eg: if the prayers are only for saying that let the cows eat grass, let them drink water, why would Vedas need such a sukta for it? Why would somebody need the blessings of rudra? What does it mean that Angiras is responsible for creating cows? What is the history behind this? Cows having many forms or similar shape can be accepted externally and at the same time Agni alone knows all their names. What is the underlying meaning of this sukta? Also what is the meaning of ‘cows alone offer their life to the devatas?’ Why only some are able to understand this secret?

“Indra should bring those cows to cow shed” What is the historical significance of this statement? “The cows are given by the lord to those rishis who glorify them.” What does it mean? Why are the vishwa devathas the protector of cows? One has to get the proper explanation or else the suktas will be wrongly understood. Just because, one doesn’t undertand these esoteric verse, to call it meaningless is foolish. To say that the foolish Rishis and munis wrote these verses out of exaggeration somehow or other they wanted to protect cows, that is what is indicated here?

These explanations are a farce and its important to understand the suktas. As we have explained earlier: “go” means light, not external light. For rishis to light up their internal light (should it be effulgence) and for the nourishment of such light, these prayers have appeared. The light Agni, Soma, Prajapatim Vishwadevatha they have a relationship.

why would Vedas need such a sukta for it?  
If someone is sitting in dark and if there is light it is very pleasing. Similarly when there is inner darkness (deergha tamasu), rishis who are aspiring for knowledge receive the transcendental light of knowledge, it is very pleasing. Just as the cow needs grass, so also the light of transcendental knowledge also needs grass and water. Without nourishment jnana will be dead. Rishis have called even water as “jeeva dhanya” (that which nourishes life). Also it is explained that cows are standing on their own feet (padadhvi). Why is it that this is talked about, do only cows have legs? One has to study this veda sutra to understand it. Rudra represents death (mrityu). So the prayer: “Let the light not see its end”, offered to him indicates knowledge is limitless and the desire to have that is an eternal desire. Similarly when we see external cows, they have the same colour, different or same shape or light rays that take shelter of the power of Sun god could also have different colors. The janan surya is they have taken shelter of jnana bala and have different colors, the nature of jnana is necessarily not only one, it is varieties, therefore satya or truth has diverse faucets and appears in different size and different color. As the Bhagavd Gita explains in 11th chapter  “nana-varnakrtini ca” this is all explained by Agni, that is the meaning.
