Gauseva: The Foundation of a Flourishing Society and
Happy Families
Mother cow has been called the ladder to heaven, and she is worshiped in
heaven too. The cow fulfills all wishes, and there is no other creature better
than the cow in this world.
In the scriptures, the cow is also considered as the mother of the whole
world (Gavo Vishwasya Matar). Since the Vedic period, the cow, considered to be
worshipable, has been a strong pillar of agriculture, commerce, and the Indian
economy. Even today, the importance of mother cow remains at the
religious-mythological, scientific, and Ayurvedic levels.
Religious and Mythological Significance
All the gods reside in mother cow. Lord Shiva's vehicle, Nandi (bull),
Lord Indra's cow, Kamdhenu, who fulfills all wishes, and Lord Shri Krishna's
Gopal, along with other goddesses' motherly qualities being reflected in the
cow, make it a universal object of worship.
According to the Bhavishya Purana, Brahma resides in the back of the cow,
and Lord Vishnu resides in the neck. Lord Shiva resides in the mouth, and all
the deities reside in the middle. Every pore of mother cow is the abode of
great sages, and the place of the tail is of infinite snake. All the mountains
are contained in the hooves, and the holy rivers Ganga and other holy rivers
are in the cow urine. Lakshmi resides in the cow, while the sun and the moon
reside in the eyes. Overall, the cow is considered a symbol of the earth,
Brahman, and God.
Economic Importance and Benefits
In ancient times, prosperity and wealth were measured by cattle, meaning that the more cows one had, the richer they were. The maintenance of families and agriculture depended on the cow. Milk, curd, ghee, cow urine, and dung obtained from cows are considered economically useful. Overall, the cow played an important role in enriching the standard of living for humans. However, the situation has changed today.
Scientific Importance and Benefits
The cow is a very important animal, not only from a religious and
economic point of view but also from a scientific perspective. According to
scientists, cow dung also absorbs radioactivity. Cow urine contains potassium,
sodium, nitrogen, phosphate, urea, uric acid, and an excess amount of lactose
while giving milk, all of which are considered medically beneficial.
The most significant factor is the presence of A-2 beta protein in desi
cow's milk, which plays an important role in providing protection against heart
disease, diabetes, and mental illness. Desi cow's milk contains alpha to casein
protein and amino acids that help in protein digestion. These amino acids are
not found in foreign cows, which can lead to various diseases. Additionally, A2
milk contains vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, along with 25 types of proteins that
protect the heart and strengthen the body's immunity. Cow's milk also contains
a powerful and easily digestible golden element.
Ayurvedic Importance and Benefits
From an Ayurvedic point of view, five things are obtained from the cow: milk, curd, ghee, urine, and dung. Collectively called Panchagavya, they act as antioxidants. Panchgavya also plays an important role in many diseases, including cancer. A-2 protein is found only in desi cow's ghee, while curd contains vitamins and minerals helpful in combating anemia. Cow's ghee is considered nectar, and cow's urine is considered a herbal medicine. Cow dung is used as natural fuel, fertilizer, and pesticide.

If you all want that mother cow should not wander from door to door in a
hungry, destitute and helpless state, should not be slaughtered in
slaughterhouses, then you are humbly requested to give financial support to
Shree Krishnayan Desi Gauraksha Evam Gaulok Dham Sewa Samiti.
Shree Krishnayan Desi Gauraksha Evam Gaulok Dham Sewa Samiti’ is one of the
largest Gaurakshashala of Desi cows in India. We protect, feed & shelter
ailing, starving, destitute and stray Desi Cows & Bulls, the majority of
which are abandoned by their owners or saved from butchers. Most of these
Gauvansh are milk barren. These cows are brought to our Gaushala from tough
conditions. All these cows are fed, sheltered, and looked after by hundreds of
Gausewaks who work round the clock. This Gaushala is run and managed by saints.
We do not exploit these cows for milk but distribute it free to saints /
tapaswis / Gausewaks / Ashrams.
We started with just 11 cows in the year 2010 in Haridwar, and presently we
shelter and feed more than 18000 cows & Bulls in various locations all put
together. This number is ever-increasing as stray Desi Cows & Bulls mostly
deserted by their owner are brought to our Gaurakshashala every day. We are
registered with the Animal Welfare Board of India (Chennai) and with the animal
welfare board in various states.
