The Hindu god Lord Krishna is said to have lived in the spiritual world in a farming community named "Goloka" meaning "cow planet". Upon descending to earth Lord Krishna's childhood is then spent in a cow farming community. The prevalence of cows in stories of Lord Krishna's life is said to highlight the practical importance of cows to human society. The Bhagavad-gita, Lord Krishna's book of instruction for human life also states that caring for cows is an essential human responsibility. Cows are also celebrated in India as a result of the practical uses of the milk and other substances that they produce. The nutritional properties of cows' milk contribute to the depiction of the cow as a maternal figure. In addition to this, cow dung has long been an important fuel for heat and cooking; and the 5 products of cows (milk, dung, urine, curd and ghee) all have important roles in Hindu worship or "puja".
