    Aren’t cows what you reincarnate into if you fuck up enough? Like they’re the lowest of all, so being kind to them is virtuous.

      Interesting. I have never heard of that. I heard of a Hindu diety once being a cowherd in a specific incarnation however.

        Honestly I don’t know if it’s true, hence the question. I saw an Indian person talking about it once, but it’s a hard topic to research in English.
