Simple Living & High Thinking

go-raksya

There are so many nice things given by Krishna, so many fruits, so many nice food grains. We can eat many palatable dishes mixed with milk. Take milk from the cows. Therefore Krishna advises, go-raksya (cow protection). Without milk you will eat all rubbish things like hogs and dogs, and your life will be spoiled. Everything is there, practical. But avidya, on account of our ignorance, foolishness, rascaldom, we are avoiding this Krishna-upadesa and suffering. Be saved from suffering and be happy by Krishna consciousness.

Thank you very much.
