She protects things that are pure and clean on Earth and is also seen as the goddess of cleanliness. She brings the milk from the Sutgol in a container made of animal skin and drips it into the mouth of the newborn baby. This makes the baby want more milk and they start to move towards the outside world. When a pregnant woman gives birth, she descends from the sky and stands beside her, but the woman cannot see her. She eases the woman's pains. She protects and educates the child. She protects and educates the child.â
