Scene: A donor presents a richly adorned cow to a brāhmaṇa, while mentally/ritually seeking Śiva’s pardon; nearby, rows of brāhmaṇas are seated for feeding.
Dharma is completed by humility and generosity—seeking pardon and supporting the learned through feeding.
The Revā Khaṇḍa context links these acts to the sanctity and merit associated with the Revā/Narmadā region.
Donate an adorned cow, seek forgiveness from Śiva, and feed many brāhmaṇas.
