ISKCON Law 601 - Inis Rath relocation

[Guest guest]

The cows will be safer on their island, they are on quarantine and I would

suggest proper sanitary procedures be followed to keep the foot and mouth

disease at bay. Personally I am going to pray that Lord Nrsimhadeva to

protect all cows in Europe from this disease I hope others will do the same.

Ys, Rohita dasa

ISKCON Law 601 - Inis Rath relocation

 

 

> Section 600: INTERNAL ISKCON

>

> 601. [ACTION ORDER] Relocation of Sri Sri Radha-Govinda from Inis Rath,

Ireland

> Whereas - Inis Rath island is in a strategically poor location; - The

journey

> from mainland to island presents both a physical and psychological barrier

for

> both visitors and residents alike to venture across to receive darsana; -

The

> property has an old rambling building that is hard to maintain and

requires

> substantial investment to bring it up to a fit standard; and - Relocation

to a

> purpose built facility near the capital city of Dublin will provide

unlimitedly

> more opportunity for the mass population to get the mercy of Sri Sri

> Radha-Govinda and is strategically a better location for expanding the

> preaching;

>

> Therefore it is resolved THAT: provisional approval be given for this

> relocation. This provisional approval will in no way oblige the GBC Body

to

> agree to full approval in the future. Full approval will be totally at the

> GBC's

> discretion and dependent on the thoroughness of the detailed plan for the

> relocation and how much of an improvement it will be both for the Deities,

the

> devotees, and the preaching.

>

> *********************

>

> I'm just wondering what the implications of this provisional approval

are --

> I'm

> also amazed that no mention whatsoever is made about what will be done

with the

> cows or of the need for approval by the Ministry of Cow Protection and

> Agriculture.

>

> Actually, we still don't know how many cows Inis Rath has. Currently, the

> situation appears to be further complicated by the foot and mouth disease

> epidemic, which I believe means that the cows cannot be moved. Am I

correct

> about this? Or does this not apply to Ireland? Wouldn't the cows would

be

> safest on their island?
