 Generally , Banai 's birth is not discussed in the folk songs . Few regard her as an avatar of the <unk> ( celestial <unk> ) <unk> , while others consider her as one of the seven daughters of Indra , the king of the gods . She is found by a Dhangar in a golden box in the forest , hidden in a <unk> mound or a pit . Her Dhangar father ( sometimes named Yamu ) is the chief of shepherds , who owns nine <unk> sheep and goats , nine <unk> lambs and numerous barren ones . Yamu is said to have prayed for a child and finds Banai in a box . A virgin <unk> is said to have fed Banai her milk , as Yamu does not have a wife and does not know how to feed the infant . In another miracle , a three @-@ <unk> house appears at the place of Yamu 's tent for the young Banai to reside , while the rest of the Dhangars live in tents . She grows up as a rich <unk> and becomes the overseer of twelve Dhangar <unk> ( pastoral settlements or camps , inhabited by different Dhangar clans ) . She cares for her sheep , <unk> them and learns how to breed them .
