The third day of Deepavali is being celebrated as the Go-Pooja, a day to show gratitude towards cows.

Cow or 'Gomatha' is inseparable from Hindu culture and tradition and is highly respected and worshiped. According to Hindu belief, cow can be called as man's second mother as he is fed by means of milk, butter, curd etc. continuously from childhood onwards.

According to Hindu Puranas all the three crore Hindu Gods are given positions in Kamadhenu's body, including in gomutra, horns, ears, milk, and so on.
