Mnemonic Stories
In India, cows are sacred, but there is one special cow that is allowed to wander the serene halls of the most famous temple, and the monks simply meditate around it.
This particular Buddhist temple is famous for its special style of martial arts, known as the ‘Iron Cow,’ which emphasizes slow, powerful, and deliberate movements.
A clumsy farmhand spilled a bucket of industrial glue on the ground, and a curious cow walked right into it, getting its hooves stuck fast. It took a special solvent to free the animal.
