Umbrella's tale

In the deep India there was a small town, where two men were living with their families. Those men worked as woodcutters.
One day, they decide to get inside the forest to find quality wood. They walked 3 km to arrive at the deep forest, then they had to cross the Browny River which was very dangerous.
Suddenly, while they were crossing the river it began to rain and the waterfall went wild. The young man opened his umbrella and fell off the rock and his foot was broken. The old man tried to help him and take him to the bank.
Later on, they were save and sound but they couldn't return to town because the young man couldn't walk. The old man didn't want to leave him alone because they were in a dangerous forest. They didn’t know what to do, so they waited 2 hours near the river. However, a big cow appeared, the old man thought that he could use it to carry his friend.
Finally, he sat him on the cow and they arrived to the town, they explained the story to people and they keep the cow to be worshipped.
That's the reason why cows are sacred in India.
