2nd revision of Cow Remains

[Guest guest]

Dear Prabhus,

 

This just came in from Aradhya and Pitavas Prabhus.

 

After all reasonable efforts have been taken to maintain the soul in the

body of the cow, when the soul has left the body of the cow, there is no bar

to someone recycling the body if they see fit

 

 

Prabhu: This is illegal in France, and may be in some other European

countries also. The dead cow must be picked up by the government and

disposed of, if she has died a natural death. The penalty for not doing

this is that the whole herd can be seized and executed. Maybe it could

be mentioned thusly: "unless illegal in that country."

 

So, in addition to the most recently revised Cow Remains we revise again:

 

4) Cow Remains

a) Local government and customs must be respected.

b) When possible it is recommended to honor the dead body of the cow.

c) After all reasonable efforts have been taken to maintain the soul in the

body of the cow, when the soul has left the body of the cow, there is no bar

to someone recycling the body unless illegal in that country and after

consulting

with the primary cowherder.
