Please present some objective evidence to support this claim. In the

particular

regard of cow protection.

Where is it come from?

 

Let us discuss two examples (i) person born in pure vaysa family, never

commited any sinful act and whole day is taking care of the cows remembering

pastimes of the Lord, which he has heard from brahmanas. (ii) person born in

mlecha-yavana family, used to eat cows and engaged in many other sinful acts

and once convinced he join pure Vaisnava community and because of his

liking, occupation or whatever, he takes care of the cows every waking hour,

no necessary sravana, kirtana.

 

Number (i) i belive and it's most likely he'll remember the Lord upon death

Number (ii) i belive that even if he gave up his occupation and came back to

sinful activietis, The Supreme Lord will takes charge of delivering such a

devotee. Not necessary in this very lifetime.

 

Just based on Bhagavad Gita
