Guest guest Posted March 24, 1999 Report Share Posted March 24, 1999 WELL TENDED COWS BRING WEALTH AND HAPPINESS Srila Prabhupada in his Purport to Srimad Bhagavatam 10.25.6 says.. It is clear from this verse that the residents of Vrindavana had become highly prosperous simply by protecting cows, since Indra wanted to destroy their so-called pride based on wealth by killing their animals. Well-tended cows produce large quantities of milk, from which come cheese, butter, yogurt, ghee and so on. These foods are delicious by themselves and also enhance other foods, such as fruits, vegetables and grains. Bread and vegetables are delicious with butter, and fruit is especially appetizing when mixed with cream or yogurt. Dairy products are always desirable in a civilized society, and the surplus can be traded for many valuable commodities. Thus, simply by a Vedic dairy enterprise, the residents of Vrindavana were wealthy and happy, even in the material sense, and most of all they were eternal associates of the Supreme Lord Krsna.
