hare krsna maharaj, pamho, agtsp
how are you ?

             HpS - AGTSP!!!!   Life is a Battle of Kuruksetra. So far we think Krsna has been able to keep us alive and shooting!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8-Hi2N8FcE   . this video shows the state of cattles (buffalo/cow) in india. Its pathetic...

. . . I wanted to ask what is the position of cow protection in ISK sankirtana activities? how do we connect cow protection to chanting of holy names....

regards,
harsh

      HpS - We will take your word for it and the word we have heard from others we trust, and not watch the video. The devotees in Australia had a plan to blow up a slaughter-house near the Temple. They indirectly asked Prabhupada about this when he was there and he answered (we heard this from Caru Das, President), "What is the use. They will simply build a new one. Unless the consciousness, attitude, is changed they will not stop". So that is the answer, no? We have to individually try to improve our efforts to educate the world, our part of the world, as fingers of Lord Caitanya. Of course, Kirtan, personal, and engaging the ignorant is the best way to educate.


Other point is that this is the material world and all the cows who are getting tortured were people who tortured cows. We want to help them very, very much, but they are NOT innocent.
