Guest guest Posted February 16, 2001 Report Share Posted February 16, 2001 Prabhupada: Bull will not supply milk, so there is no use. It must be killed. Otherwise they are ferocious animal. You have made this law. The cows may be given some time to be killed, but the bulls should be killed immediately. This is their law. Hari-sauri: Nor do the farmers actually want to keep them anyway. Prabhupada: No. Hari-sauri: They are useless animals. Prabhupada: Simply expensive. But here in India they know how to utilize bulls -- for transportation, for plowing and so many other things. Tamala Krsna: Such a shortage of fuel, but there is no shortage of fuel with a bull. Prabhupada: No, rather, it will supply you gobar, fuel. Whatever he will eat, he will give you fuel. Tamala Krsna: In return. Prabhupada: In return. Jayapataka: But now the government is trying to teach the people that they should buy tractors and kill the calves. Prabhupada: Huh? Jayapataka: They want to have..., make tractors popular and then... Prabhupada: Kill the bulls. They were criticizing us because in our gosala we maintain the male calves. >>> Ref.
