Guest guest Posted February 12, 2001 Report Share Posted February 12, 2001 Please see my 1993 article in Back to Godhead, Volume 27: "Is Milk for Everyone?" Mar/Apr 1993, p. 12. Srila Prabhupada said that milk is essential for building fine brain tissue to understand spiritual matters. Scientists say that no vegetable sources contain vitamin B12 which is needed for nerve and brain tissue -- but that B12 is found in milk. The article is more fully developed and contains various Prabhupada quotes. Still, the vegans are correct that our lack of commitment to cow protection is problematic. We cannot even get our own GBC to follow ISKCON Law 507 which requires them to turn in quarterly cow protection reports. Nevertheless, milk contains important ingredients for understanding spiritual topics. You can obtain the BTG article from Back to Godhead, or by contacting the Bhaktivedanta Archives. I hope this helps. your servant, Hare Krsna dasi KBaladeva ACBSP wrote: > Dear Vaisnavas, > Please accept my humble obeisances.
