The cow, in the form of Kamdhenu as described in veda which is victim of tryanny of modern man who was afflicted with the blot of cow slaughter, evokes the devotees of cows to save the human race.
Honorable cow devotees, gentlemen, many rishis, great men and cow devotees has started movements and vast demonstration to stop cow slaughter to give full protection to the holy cows yet the cows have not be found full protection. At present about fifty thousand cows are being killed daily. If we peer in the back ground of all those movements, a picture will be emerged. In which all the rulers and representatives have attempted to achieve the destination of cow’s protection. The success of all the movements left some unanswered questions. As, why does a cow remain hungry? What is the reason for which a cow herd has forced to leave a cow? Why are the government and ruler afraid of saving cows? Why do the agitators not get success in achieving destination in spite of having millions in number?
Sevikasram great pilgrimage patnagarh Kamdhenu family has dared to face the challenge of getting the answer of unanswered questions of total cow protection in campaign.
No ruler or administrator or kings can rear the entire cow. If cow slaughter is to be stopped, cow in every family and goshala in every village will have to be setup. Reliable investigation and research will have to be done to prove economic and spiritual importance of cows. There will be a powerful one faithful team for the cow protection which will be away form shouting slogans and drama. Agricultural India will have to be prosperous economically and free form pollution through production of holy food grain. Investment on panchgavya will be attempted on war footing. Improved breeding and protection of cow should be done etc. these all attempts will instal the importance of a cow in its real form. If it is done, no one will leave a cow. When there will be no cow for slaughter house, killing of cow will be stops automatically and all the obstacles like poverty unemployment and malnourish will be eradicated in the whole country.
The main objective of this institution is to protect and increase cows in large number on the base of physical, economical and intellectual prosperity and cow rearing farmers (gopalak) are to be showed the importance and utility of cows with proof. So that both farm and farmers may be self reliance. The villagers may get employment; the production of grass may be increased with reservoir (collecting water) with planting trees in grasslands, ourans and other forests. The quality of panchgavya should be increased by it refinement so that maximum village self employment may be increased. Investment on (gavya) should be made through scientific method and discretion. Agriculture should be developed through using of cows. The quantity as well as quality of medicines should be improved heritage of greenery and cattle should be increased.
It will increase the agricultural production qualitatively and quantitatively. And it will be beneficial for environmental purity and human health. Distructive conception has been setup in the society, nation and the world. The powerful people obsessed with disgust, jealousy malice ego etc. is devouring the weak people of nation and society. Poisonous mixture of regionalism, sactrialism and majhabvad is being fed for the distruction of the whole world. People have become selfish and greedy. A person is destroying the rights of the weak and helpless creatures to ful fill his unapeased desire. Devils in the form of men have attacked (advanced) to destroy the holy creature like cow with cruelty.
Thousands of cows are being killed everyday. This activity is distructive (ruinous) and a great sin. It is against the justice of nature. And painful for the whole universe. The National Kamdhenu (Regd.Trust) vrindaban was originated by the affliction of these pains in the heart of the saints. The organization of this institution is based on the aim of benavolent for all. Thus institution is totally against (rival), narrow mindedness, discrimation and selfish struggle. There is no place for personalism, sectarianism and political parties in this institution.
This institution believes in co existence. It runs on the basic principle of “our benefit is the benefit of all” any activity or counsel works to mix (add) person, society and nation. To look at this institution through defile political point of view is a terrible fault (folly) and a great sin. Without understanding the welfare accomplishment work of the institution, imaginary useless conception, spread baseless illusion in the society or misguide the people and society is a great foolishness and go on the way of distruction by himself. It can not be considered prudency. So giving up false conceptions, the government and society should help according to their capacity.
Due to above mentioned discription, the eyes of responsible persons of the society and states should be opened who tried to impede the holy work of the institution, closing their eyes. If their eyes are not opened at this statement, then it is sure that the creator didn’t bestow them eyes.
It was the first opportunity when the great historical celebration of a vast kumbh of about 50 cows for growth, protection, and rearing of cows has been performing for four years after the incarnation of lord Krishna. In this three day celebration the all powers related to universal religion and Hindu culture gathered at one place. And lacs o people took a vow with their mind and conscious to give complete protection to cows. The spiritual power had warned with challenge to the people who installed with authority on the earth that if the descendants of Kamdhenu, Surabhi and Nandini which are the representative of this whole earth are given injustice, no one will save the earth from its distruction and the humanity will be tortured.
Specially India the subcontinent which is the axis of the universe from where the whole world gets energy is the base of life. In the lap of such India their mother, killing, flowing blood and torturing cows must be stopped immediately. If this great crime is not eradicated from this land of India, the blood of cows falling on the land of India will destroy the modern civilization of materialism and dictatorship like at the time of Ram’s incarnation the rishis blood was manifested in the form of sita caused the distruction of the civilization of materialism and greediness.
So every Indian born form the womb of Bharat Mata, whether he is labourer or sagacious or belong to any. Sector leaders of nation should be understood that the cow is our mother and our safety depends on the protection of cows. Now there should be no delay to protect, rear and increase cows. We should use our whole power in it. Because the mahakal (destroyer) has opened its jaw to devour the devils, in the form of men who kill the dumb, helpless and weak creatures. They, who are deforming the world can’t be saved themselves from the jaw of mahakal (destroyer) they will surely be eradicated.
So gentleman! Be cautious and reprenting the dumb, helpless and weak creature, go in the shelter of mother cows and ask for forgiveness mercifully for your crimes. According to the collective pledge of God’s energy, rishi energy, Goddess energy and humanity energy the compaign of national cow protection was started in holy Kamdhenu Dham Vrindaban. Consequently lacs of cows have been saved form going under the sword of cruel butchers.
Under the direction of Kamdhenu (welfare) Sadhak family such disciplined and labourious cow devees will be prepared. They will make the national creative cow service compaign peacefully.
In this sadhna camp, protection, rearing and growth of cows will be thought over and constantly tried for the development of body, mind and spirituality religiously. So you are requested to assist in this important compaign with your body and mind.

KAMDHENU GAUSHALA

Kamdhenu Gaushala was personally begun by His Divine Grace Anant Shri Saradacharyag Maharaj Ji in 2009 with ten milking Cows, but nowadays it has grown more than 50 Cows, Bulls and Calves. Their number is growing every year. Small baby calves will soon grow into bulls and mothers, and their needs will also increase. As they grow and produce more milk for the benefit of human consumers, it is important to provide them more nourishment and care. Secondly, this project aims to educate more devotees and the people in general on the importance of Go-Seva. Our "mothers" have been taking care of us for so many years; this is now the right time to return that kindness.

The Kamdhenu Goshala spends Rs. 12. Lakhs per year for maintaining the Cows. It takes up to Rs. 1,100/- per month, per Cow. Sponsor Krishna's cows in Turlamal & Vrindaban's Gousala and obtain boundless mercy! Every month you can donate some little amount of money which is affordable by you and make Go-Seva a life time service to Krishna Balaram’s Cows.

ABSTRACT

The potential of utilizing panchagavya as biofertilizer was tested on the pulses Vigna radiata, Vigna mungo, Arachis hypogea, Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, Lablab purpureus, Cicer arietinum and the cereal Oryza sativa var. ponni by growing in soil amended with dried traditional and seaweed based panchagavya. Experimental seedling recorded higher rates of linear growth of both shoots and roots as compared to controls. These seedlings produced 264 to 390% more lateral roots than the control and maximum lateral root production was always observed in seedlings grown in soil amended with seaweed based panchagavya at low concentrations (1:100; panchagavya: soil). A similar observation was made on the number of leaves produced, leaf area and the number of root nodules formed in the pulses by rhizobia. A marked decrease in Chlorophyll a/b ratio, C/N ratio in the plants grown in seaweed based panchagavya indicating high chlorophyll b levels and a better nitrogen use efficiency in these plants respectively.

INTRODUCTION

The current global scenario firmly emphasizes the need to adopt eco-friendly agricultural practices for sustainable agriculture. Chemical agriculture has made an adverse impact on the health-care of not only soil but also the beneficial soil microbial communities and the plants cultivated in these soils. This eventually has lead to a high demand for organic produce by the present-day health conscious society and sporadic attempts are being made by farmers all over the world to detoxify the land by switching over to organic farming dispensing with chemical fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides. In India, organic farming was a well developed and systematized agricultural practice during the past and this ‘ancient wisdom’ obtained through Indian knowledge systems such as ‘Vedas’ specify the use of ‘panchagavya’ in agriculture for the health of soil, plants and humans. In Sanskrit, panchagavya means the blend of five products obtained from cow, namely cow dung, cow urine, cow milk, curd and ghee (Sugha, 2005). The Vriskshayurveda systematizes the use of panchagavya. Few farmers in the southern parts of India have used modified formulations of panchagavya and found them to enhance the biological efficiency of the crop plants and the quality of fruits and vegetables (Natarjan, 2002). In the past three decades, crude extracts from seaweeds have been show to exhibit many bioactivities that include biostimulant, fertilizer and antimicrobial properties. Different forms of seaweed preparations such as LSF (Liquid Seaweed Fertilizer), SLF (Seaweed Liquid Fertilizer), LF (Liquid Fertilizer) and a manure prepared by using either whole or finely chopped seaweeds have been experimented and all of them have been reported to produce beneficial effects on cereals, pulses and flowering plants (Radley, 1961; Stephenson, 1974; 1981; Smith and van Staden, 1983; 1984; Tay et al., 1985; Temple

and Bomelle, 1989; Sekar et al., 1995). In this paper, we present the results of an investigation made to evaluate the fertilizer potential of traditional and modified form of panchagavya amended with liquid

seaweed preparations using some pulses and paddy as experimental plants.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

Traditional panchagavya Traditional panchagavya was prepared following the procedures outlined by Pandurang Vaman Kane, 1941. It contained fresh cow dung - 0.5 kg; cow urine - 1.0 L; cow milk - 7.0 L; curd - 1.0 L; ghee - 1.0 L and water - 1.0 L. These ingredients were taken in a 25.0 L concrete pot, mixed well and allowed to stand in shade for 21 days with intermittent stirring. After 21 days, the preparation was allowed to dry for 180 days in shade. Dried panchagavya was mixed with sterilized garden soil at a ratio of 1: 100 (panchagavya : soil) and used. Seaweed based Panchagavya Seaweed based panchagavya is a modified preparation (Natarajan, 2002) containing the aqueous extract of the alga, Sargassum wightii. The preparation contained Cow dung - 5.0 Kg; cow urine - 3.0 L; cow milk - 2.0 L; cow curd - 2.0 L; cow ghee - 1.0 Kg; sugarcane juice - 3.0 L; tender coconutwater - 3.0 L; banana - 12 nos; yeast powder -100 g;jaggery - 100 g; water - 2.0 L. The above composition gives approximately 20.0 L of panchagavya. Cow dung and cow ghee were mixed together in a 25.0 L concrete pot and kept for 3 days with intermittent stirring to exhaust methane gas. On the fourth day all the other ingredients were added to the cow dung - ghee mixture along with spores of Lactobacillus sporogenes (one SPOROLAC tablet having 60 million spores / tablet) and mixed thoroughly. The mouth of the container was covered with a thin cloth and kept in the open in shade. This mixture was stirred twice everyday and after 18 days, 5.0 g of the algal extract residue was added to the preparation and used in experiments. Algal extract residue was prepared by extracting 100.0 g of shade dried Sargassum wightii with 5.0 L of boiling water for 30 minutes. The extract was allowed to cool, filtered through a layer of muslin cloth and dried in vacuo and the dry residue was used. Assay of panchagavya preparations on the germination and development of seedlings of pulses and rice The effect of panchagavya preparation on germination and development of rice Oryza sativa var. ponni and the pulses, Vigna radiata, Vigna mungo, Arachis hypogaea, Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, Lablab purpureus, Cicer arietinum seedlings were studied. The growth medium was a mixture of dry panchagavya residue and soil at a ratio of 1: 100 (traditional), 1: 50 (seaweed based) and 1: 100 (seaweed based) v/v. Seeds were surface sterilized with 1.0% mercuric chloride, washed several times in running water, soaked overnight in sterile water and allowed to germinate in dark. Germinating seeds were implanted in soil preparations kept in pots of the size 5.2” tall and 3.5” radius. Seedlings raised in sterilized garden soil were used as control. Ten replicates were used for all experimental plants. The seedlings of pulses were inoculated with Rhizobium R4 (approximately 1x10 9 cells/mL of sterile nutrient solution) twice, i.e. on the 5 th day and then on the 11th day in both control and test pots (except for Oryza sativa var. ponni). All the developing seedlings except Oryza sativa were watered on alternate days with Wilson’s N-free nutrient solution. For Oryza sativa, normal water was used. Twenty one days old seedlings were carefully removed and their linear growth, the number of leaflets produced, leaf area, number of lateral roots formed, number of root nodules, and other biochemical parameters as

detailed below were determined. Rhizobium (R4) was used in the inoculation of plants were grown on YMA (Yeast Mannitol Agar) medium as specified by J.M. Vincent with slight modifications (Thevanathan, 1980). Purity of the organism was checked frequently using 0.05% Congo Red YMA medium. Wilson’s nitrogen-free nutrient solution (Wilson and Reisenauer, 1963) was used in the preparation of the inoculum as well as for watering the developing seedlings. An effective 72 hours old strain of Rhizobium R4 strain was used for inoculating the seedlings. The seedlings were inoculated twice, first on the 5th day after germination followed by a second inoculation on the 11th day. Ten milliliters of a thick suspension of the inoculum (approximately 1x10 9

cells/mL of sterile

nutrient solution) was pipetted out around the base of

each seedling. During the first few days after

inoculation, care was taken in watering the plants so

as to avoid washing the inoculum out of the soil.

Wilson’s nitrogen-free nutrient solution was used to

water the developing seedlings on alternate days.

Estimation of photosynthetic pigments

Pigments from leaves of the developing

seedlings were extracted with 80% acetone and the

amounts of chlorophylla

and chlorophyllb were

determined as described by Arnon (1949) and

Yoshida et al.(1976).

Chlorophylla = 12.21 A663 – 2.81 A646 mg/g tissue

Chlorophyllb = 20.13 A646 – 5.03 A663 mg/g tissue

Where, A663 and A646 represent the optical

density (OD) values at the respective wavelengths.

Estimation of nitrogen and carbon

At different stages of development, whole

plants were carefully removed from sand, cleaned

and dried. Shoot, root and nodules formed in pulses

were dried separately in an oven at 90

C, until the

weights remained constant. Then the dry weights of Marsland Press The Journal of American Science, 2010;6(2):61-67

these parts were determined. The dried plant material

was ground in a glass mortar with glass pestle and the

nitrogen content was determined by modified microKjeldahl method (Nesslerisation) (Umbreit et al.,

1972). Carbon content was calculated from total dry

matter yield of the seedlings (Kvet et al., 1971; Terry

and Mortimer, 1972; Turgeon and Webb, 1975;

Causton and Venus, 1981).

The potential of utilizing panchagavya as

biofertilizer was tested on the pulses Vigna radiata,

Vigna mungo, Arachis hypogea, Cyamopsis

tetragonoloba, Lablab purpureus, Cicer arietinum

and the cereal Oryza sativa var. ponni by growing in

soil amended with dried traditional and seaweed

based panchagavya. Traditional panchagavya was

used at a proportion of 1: 100 (panchagavya: soil)

while seaweed based panchagavya was tried at 1: 50

and 1: 100 dilutions with soil. After 21 days, the

seedlings were harvested and studied for their growth

and development.

Effect on the linear growth of experimental

seedlings:

Effect on shoot and root growth

Soil amended with seaweed based

panchagavya increased the linear growth of both

shoot and root systems in all the pulses and rice as

compared to respective controls (Figures 1 & 2).

Enhancement in the growth of root and shoot systems

in the experimental plants was more pronounced in

seedlings grown in soil amended with seaweed based

panchagavya rather than with traditional

panchagavya. At a ratio of 1: 100 (panchagavya:

soil), shoots of the rice seedlings grown in seaweed

based panchagavya exhibited nearly 100 % more

growth than that of the control plants. In pulses, the

percent increase in the linear growth of shoots over

control plants in Vigna radiata, Vigna mungo and

Cicer arietinum was relatively low in the range of

only 16 – 20% as compared to other experimental

plants, in which it was 64 – 98%. Even in seedlings

grown in traditional panchagavya, the shoots of the

treated plants exhibited 3 – 50% more growth than

the controls. Linear growth of root in the

experimental plants too exhibited a similar response

to treatment with panchagavya (Figure 2). In seaweed

based panchagavya treatment, a two fold increase in

the linear growth of root could be observed in Vigna

radiata, Vigna mungo and Oryza sativa as compared

to controls. Roots of other experimental plants

responded to the same treatment with an increase in

growth ranging from 37 to 89%. Increasing the

concentration of panchagavya (1: 50 dilution)

decreased the effect on linear growth of both shoots

and roots of the experimental plants. Nevertheless,

the effect of seaweed based panchagavya was more

than that observed for treatment with traditional

panchagavya.

Effect on lateral root growth

As observed for the linear growth of shoots

and roots, the number of lateral roots formed also

was more in the seedlings raised in soils amended

with both traditional and seaweed based panchagavya

(Figure 3). However, use of the latter produced more

lateral roots than the former in all the cases. Effect on

lateral root formation was more pronounced in

Arachis hypogea as compared to other experimental

plants. Seedlings grown in soil amended with

panchagavya produced 264 to 390% more lateral

roots than the control and maximum lateral root

production was always observed in seedlings grown

in soil amended with seaweed based panchagavya

(1:100; panchagavya: soil). Treatment with seaweed

based panchagavya was higher than that observed for

both control and traditional panchagavya.

Effect on leaf development and growth

Plants grown in soil amended with

panchagavya produced more leaflets ( in pulses) or

leaves (in Oryza sativa) than their respective controls

(Figure 4) and the effect was more pronounced in

seedlings grown in soil amended with low levels of

seaweed based panchagavya (1: 100, panchagavya :

soil ). In Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, Lablab

purpureus and Oryza sativa, the number of leaflets

formed in seedlings grown in seaweed based

panchagavya at 1: 100 dilution was observed to be

twice of that recorded for their respective controls.

Arachis hypogea, Cicer arietinum and Oryza sativa

also exhibited positive response to the treatments

with both traditional and seaweed based panchagavya

while Vigna radiata showed poor response. Seedlings

grown in soil amended with traditional panchagavya

produced less number of leaves per plant than those

grown in seaweed based panchagavya. In all the

plants, increasing the levels of seaweed based

panchagavya in soil resulted in decreased production

of leaves (Figure 4). Apart from the large number of

leaf or leaflet production, the leaf area or the lamina

of the leaves in plants grown in soil amended with

panchagavya was always larger than those of the

control plants (Figure 5).

The growth of leaves in all the experimental

plants was high when grown in seaweed based

panchagavya. In Lablab purpureus, the lamina size

was nearly 27% larger with seaweed based

panchagavya as compared to those grown in soil

amended with traditional panchagavya (Figure 5). As

compared to control, these seedlings produced leaves

http://www.americanscience.org

which had 93% more surface area than that of their

respective controls. Percent increase over control in

the leaf area of the seedlings of Vigna radiata, Vigna

mungo, Arachis hypogea, Cyamopsis tetragonoloba

and Cicer arietinum grown in soil amended with

seaweed based panchagavya at a ratio of 1: 100 was

27%, 35%, 46%, 140% and 37% respectively. In

Oryza sativa, the percent increase in leaf area in

response to the same treatment (1: 100 panchagavya:

soil) was 96%.

Effect on photosynthetic pigments

Panchagavya amended soil had a profound

effect on the quantities of chlorophylls too in leaves

of the experimental plants (Figure 6). A low

chlorophyll a/b ratio as compared to the control was

recorded in the leaves of all the plants grown in

panchagavya soil preparations. Seaweed based

panchagavya was more effective than the traditional

panchagavya irrespective of the dilutions tried. The

ratio decreased with a decrease in the levels of

seaweed based panchagavya in soil. In other words,

low levels of the panchagavya in soil effectively

decreased chlorophyll a/b ratio without decreasing

the levels of the individual pigments. The treatment

increased the quantities of chlorophyll b in the leaves

of the experimental plants resulting in a low

chlorophyll a/b ratio.

Effect on nodule formation

Since all the experimental plants except rice

were legumes, the effect of panchagavya on root

nodule formation was also studied in these legumes.

Root nodule formation was also enhanced in

the presence of panchagavya. Again, the effect was

marked in the seedlings grown in soil amended with

low levels of seaweed based panchagavya

(panchagavya: soil; 1: 100). The effect was

maximum in Arachis hypogea and minimum in

Cyamopsis tetragonoloba. Even traditional

panchagavya treatment could cause an increase from

18% to 62% in the formation of root nodules (Figure

7).

Effect on C/N ratio

The seedlings raised in soil amended with

panchagavya registered a low C/N ratio as compared

to their respective controls (Figure 8). Percent

reduction in the C/N ratio of seedlings grown in

panchagavya amended soils was in the range of 1 –

22%. The C/N ratio of Arachis hypogea grown in

seaweed based panchagavya preparation was 22%

less than that of its control. Oryza sativa recorded a

value that was 16% less than that of the control

seedlings (Figure 8). Lowest values for C/N ratio in

the experimental plants were recorded in seedlings

grown in soil amended with low levels of seaweed

based panchagavya (1: 100; panchagavya: soil). Even

at a concentration of 1: 50 (Panchagavya: soil), the

seaweed based preparation was able to reduce the

C/N ratio by about 3 to 17% than the controls. Marsland Press The Journal of American Science, 2010;6(2):61-67

DISCUSSION

The biofertilizer potential of panchagavya

prepared in the traditional way and a modified

preparation amended with seaweed extract have been

evaluated for their fertilizer potential using the pulses

Vigna radiata, Vigna mungo, Arachis hypogea,

Cyamopsis tetragonoloba, Lablab purpureus, Cicer

arietinum and the cereal Oryza sativa var. ponni as

the experimental plants. Some farmers in the

southern parts of India use a modified panchagavya

that contains many other plant products to boost

fermentation and to support the growth of beneficial

microorganisms. In the past three or four decades,

the potential of seaweeds and their liquid extracts in

agriculture as a biofertilizer and a source of growth

promoters have been indicated by many (Bentley,

1960; Bhosle et al., 1975; Williams et al., 1981;

Jeanin et al., 1991; Immanuel and Subramaniam,

1999; Thevanathan et al., 2005). These reports

formed the basis for a new formulation of

panchagavya with the inclusion of an aqueous extract

of the brown alga, Sargassum wightii and assess for

its biofertilizer potential in the present investigation.

Panchagavya is normally advocated as foliar

nutrition (Caraka-Samhita, 1981; Susruta Samhita,

1985; Chauhan, 2002 b; 2004 b; 2005; Fulzele et al.,

2001; Joshi, 2002; Garg and Chauhan, 2003 a;

Saxena et al., 2004) and has not been tried as manure.

Nevertheless dried and powdered seaweeds have

been shown to be a good source of manure when

mixed with soil in small quantities for the cultivation

of vegetable crops and tea. In the present

investigation dried traditional panchagavya and

seaweed based panchagavya were tested as manure.

Dried panchagavya (both traditional and seaweed

based) when mixed with soil at a ratio of 1:100

(panchagavya: soil v/v) and used as a growth medium

promoted the linear growth of both the shoot and

roots of the seedlings of both the pulses and the

cereal, the paddy (Figures 1 and 2).The effect was

pronounced in soils amended with seaweed based

panchagavya even at 1:50 (v/v) dilution. The effect

on all experimental plants except Lablab purpureusBiofertilizer Potential of Panchagavya Sangeetha and Thevanathan

http://www.americanscience.org 44 americansciencej@gmail.com

was moderate in the sense that the linear growth did

not mimic etiolation. Similarly, soils amended with

panchagavya (both traditional and seaweed based)

promoted the production of lateral roots, leaves,

leaflets and the growth of lamina in all the

experimental plants (Figures 3, 4 and 5). As

compared to control, the seedlings produced leaves

which had 93% more surface area than that of their

respective controls. Percent increase over control in

the leaf area of the seedlings of Vigna radiata, Vigna

mungo, Arachis hypogea, Cyamopsis tetragonoloba

and Cicer arietinum grown in soil amended with

seaweed based panchagavya at a ratio of 1: 100 (v/v)

was 27%, 35%, 46%, 140% and 37% respectively.

Increased production of lateral roots would provide

more surface area for absorption of water and

minerals by the experimental seedlings than their

controls. Similarly, large number of leaves or leaflets

with greater surface area could be construed as an

indication of enhanced photosynthetic efficiency in

plants grown in soil amended with panchagavya. This

is further confirmed by the marked decrease in the

ratio of chlorophyll a to chlorophyll b (Figure 6) in

leaves of the plants grown in soil amended with both

traditional and seaweed based panchagavya. The C/N

ratio also was very low in these plants as compared to

controls (Figure 8). A low C/N ratio is normally

indicative of a better carbon and nitrogen use

efficiency than plants with high C/N ratio. Since all

the experimental plants except rice were legumes, the

effect of panchagavya on root nodule formation by

rhizobia was also studied in these legumes.

Panchagavya promoted the formation of root nodules

by the inoculated rhizobia (Rhizobium, R4) in the

experimental plants (Figure 7). The effect was

marked in the seedlings grown in soil amended with

low levels of seaweed based panchagavya

(panchagavya: soil; 1: 100). The effect was more

pronounced in Arachis hypogea. Even the use of

traditional panchagavya as manure was able to

increase nodule formation by nearly 18% to 62%

(Figure 7). Though panchagavya has been claimed to

have antibacterial activities (Subramaniam, 2005;

Sugha, 2005), use of panchagavya as manure in the

present investigation was found to promote both the

survival ability and nodulating efficiency of the

inoculated strain of Rhizobium (Figure 7). High

levels of trace elements and adequate amounts of

potassium and nitrogen have been shown to be

present in seaweeds (Smith and van Staden, 1983,

1984; Tay et al., 1985; Temple and Bomelle, 1989;

Sekar et al., 1995). But for the low levels of

phosphate, seaweed meal has been shown in this lab

to be an alternative to farm yard manure in raising

cereals, pulses and nodal cuttings of tea

(Thevanathan et al., 2005). This could be the reason

for the enhanced effect of seaweed based

panchagavya over traditional panchagavya in

promoting the growth and development of

experimental pulses and cereals.

CONCLUSION

The biofertilizer potential of traditional and

a modified panchagavya containing liquid seaweed

preparation of Sargassum wightii were investigated.

Soil amended with panchagavya at a

concentration of 1: 100 (panchagavya: soil v/v)

increased the linear growth of both shoot and root

systems of the seedlings of the pulses Vigna radiata,

Vigna mungo, Arachis hypogea, Cyamopsis

tetragonoloba, Lablab purpureus, Cicer arietinum

and the cereal Oryza sativa var. ponni. Increase in

linear growth of the shoots and roots was associated

with a concomitant increase in the number of lateral

roots produced, the number of leaves or leaflets

produced, increase in leaf area, nodule formation by

Rhizobium and a decrease in the chlorophyll a/b and

C/N ratio. The effect was further enhanced when

seaweed based panchagavya was used as manure at

the same concentration.

Cow and Scriptures

Cow and Scriptures


	Cows are the path to heaven, they are worshipable even in heaven. Cows grant a desirable objects, therefore there is nothing superior to the cows
	*****

	Oh Bharata, a person devoted to cows attains whatever he desires. Women also who aredevoted to cows get their wish fulfilled. A person desiring son gets a son, one desiringdaughter gets daughter, one desiring wealth gets wealth, one desiring religion attains religion, a student gets education and one desiring happiness gets happiness. There is nothing unachievable for a servant of cow.
	*****

	The Brahma Vidya, which grants supreme bliss is compared to the Sun. Similarly the firmament, can be compared with an ocean and earth to Indra but the cow, which does unlimited welfare to hunamy, cannot be compared to anything cow is without any comparison. Indeed there is no other being like a cow, which does welfare to human beings.




	The hosts of devas reside in the body of a cow and all the holy places exist in cow’s feet. laxmi resides in the private parts of a cow. A person who adorns his forehead with the mud sticking to the feet of a cow attains the piety of taking bath in a holy place and achieves and achieves success at every step. The place where cows reside is called tirtha, one who dies in such a place becomes liberated immediately. This is certain.
	.*****

	People who serve cows and worship them, are blessed with rarest and choicest boon, on their full satisfaction.Being pleased cows bestow rare boon to a person who serves them and fellows them. Never be envious of them and ever please them, honor them properly and worship them. A man who has control over his senses and pleased within who ever serves the cows attains opulence.

Brihat parashara smriti says:

	One who gives some water and grass to the cows for eating attains the result of performing a horse sacrifice there is no doubt in it.
	*****
	Vishnu Dharmottara Purana says:

	By arranging pasture land for cows, giving medical to treatment to the sick cows a person becomes free of fears and attains the result of a horse sacrifice .
	.*****

	Hundreds of milk men holding milk pitchers to milk the cowsand hundreds of their guardians dauce attendance on them. People, who wholly depend on cows, do realize real worth of a cow.
	.*****

	I wish always to keep cows in my view and that cow favors me. Cows are ours and we are for the cows. Let us be close the cows, wherever they stay.
	.*****

	Without giving a portion of our wealth in charity enjoyment of our wealth is merely eating sin To become free from this sin service to cows is the best, natural and easiest means.




	A mere slight touch to a cow shall shed away all sins of a man and respectful regards to a cow shall grant power and pelf.
	.*****

	Divine doctrine of Vedas directs that, if one aspires to have all kinds of luxury and comforts of the material worldly life, one should prominently serve the cow.

Sixth Sense of Cow
Cow has a sharp sixth sense. As per an epic story, the cow could once talk. It predicted an impending accident to its master and helped him avoid it. The God then made the cow dumb for changing what was destined.
Cows respond to the joy and suffering of people. There are many examples of cows shedding tears and even refusing food empathising with their masters.
Sensing Danger :

Lathur in Maharashtra had a devastating earthquake on 30 September 1993. Devani breed of cows in that place had been behaving strange, crying and jumping around a few days before this as a warning to the people. We could not decipher the message.
Similar things happened before Tsunami in 2004 too. Then, Baraguru, Amblacheri and Kangayam breed of cows behaved strangely. We could not get the message again.

Characteristics of Cow
Overall Characteristics :

Indian Cow Breed

The Indian cow belongs to Bass Indicus variety.
High shoulder, flappy under-neck, and Suryaketu nerve on the back are easy differentiators of the variety.
It is believed that Suryaketu nerve absorbs medicinal essences from atmosphere and makes milk, urine and cow dung more nourishing.

Skin :

High shoulder, flappy hanging dewlaps under-neck, and long ears increase the area of skin that sweats and keeps the body cooler. This is apt for our climate.
Sweat glands are wider and the sweat is aromatic, protecting from monsoon-insects.
The cow drives away insects by swift muscle movements
With small hair, skin remains clean.
With all these uniqueness, an Indian ox can work with comfort in rain and shine.

Tail :

Long enough to touch ground.
Tail joint is unique and allows swirling around till the neck.
It also swats flies and insects.

Hoof :

Joined, does not gather twigs and dirt.
Indian ox has smaller and strong hoof. This is suited for ploughing and pulling cart.
Some of the Indian varieties can work without horse-shoes.
Unlike tractor, the ox does not harden the top soil and kill the helpful insects.

Chromosome :

Different actions and features of the body are controlled by chromosomes.
As a cow would always have adequate quantity of chromosome, there is no infertility for generations.

Life Activities :

Basal metabolic rate(BMR) is the amount of energy expended while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment.
Indian cow has a lower BMR. In draught it can survive with small quantity of food. Though it becomes weaker then, it recovers fast when it gets nourishment.
Such temporary difficulties do not later affect its milk yield or fertility.

Immunity to Disease :

Cows are born with immunity to diseases. There is no difference between the ones grazing in the fields or kept in the sheds.
This reduces the expenditure on their medical care.
For this reason, America and Europe import Indian cows, cross breed with local variety to improve their immunity.

Efficiency :

Indian ox has strong muscles and long legs. They work for long hours in difficult conditions.
High shoulder holds the plough well.

Caring :

Cows can be housed in very ordinary shed and even under a tree.
Some Indian varieties require very little food.
In villages they generally roam around fields and forests through the day.

Milk :

Gir – Best Milking Breed

Some Indian breed cows give up to 20 litres of milk per day.
Main varieties of Indian milch cows are Gir, Sahival, Tharparker, Rati and Sindhi.
We can improve other breeds by better care and nourishment.

Panchagavya :

Constitutes cow urine, cow dung, milk, curd and ghee.
Used as food, medicine, manure and insecticide.
They increase immunity to diseases.
Without side effects, they fight cancer, hypertension, skin diseases, and urinary diseases.

Introduction

An Intimate introduction of Cow

Cow

For those of us who grew up in villages, mention of cow brings nostalgia. Our dawn was through the cowshed beside the house. Milking cows was a loving early morning ritual for the mothers. Mother would move to the shed with a shining pot, lovingly stroke the cow on its back, calling it with its favourite name. The milk that the cow spared for the household nourished the whole family, especially the children, even like it nurtured its own calf.
The cow is a moving temple, being abode of thirty three crore Gods of the Hindu pantheon. She has given sacred Panchagavya with immense medicinal value and is a moving hospital.
Cow is the mother of the universe (Gavo Vishwasya Matharaha). She helps in agriculture, transportation, food, medicine, industry, sports, religious functions, emotional stability, economy, etc. From time immemorial, cow has a special place in Indian society.

Role of Cow in the Battlefield

Apart from responding to our daily needs, cows have fought for us in battlefields!
Recorded Battles :

When Hyder Ali was ruling the Mysore State, the Nizam of Hyderabad attacked Chitradurga Fort. Hyder Ali had a fleet of Amrit Mahal oxen in his army! He tied burning torches to the horns of 237 of these oxen and let them attack Nizam’s army, resulting in the defeat of 3,000 strong attacking army.
Captain Javinson had Amrit Mahal oxen in his brigade in Afghanistan. As recorded by him, when his troop travelled in narrow valleys of Teri hills in 1842, the oxen were cheerful even after pulling the carts for 16 continuous hours.
Commanding Officer Lord Wellesley credits the Amrit Mahal oxen for his victory over Napoleon in Pensular War.
Amrit Mahal oxen were part of the troop deployed in Mesopotamia in First Word War (1914 – 1918). They surprised the people by walking faster than camels, crossing narrow valleys and bridges with tact, adapting to adverse weather conditions and fighting with even reduced feed.

Hindu Religion

Aug20

Hindu Religion
Even the gods pray to the cow. She contains the divinity of all the Gods. A pious day starts with her worship. She has prominence in various religious festivals. Sankranti and Deepavali are specially cow related festivals. Cow products are essential in different religious rituals. Thus, cow is integral part of our life.
Cow in Vedas and Puranas
यः पौरुषेण क्रविषा समंक्ते यो अश्वेन पशुना यातुधानः ।
ये अघ्न्याये भरति क्षीरमग्ने तेषां शीर्षाणि हरसापि वृश्चः ॥
Oh fire god, with your flames burn the heads of those demons who eat the meat of humans, animals like horse and cow, and those who steal cows’ milk. (Rik Samhita 87 – 161)
प्रजापतिर्मह्यमेता रराणो विश्वैर्देवैः पितृभिः संविदानः ।
शिवाः सतीरुप नो गोष्ठमाकस्तासां वयं प्रजया संसदेम ॥
May the supreme Lord, complemented by all the Gods, create auspicious and spacious cowsheds for our happiness and populate them with cows and calves. Let us rejoice the cow-wealth and contend by serving those cows. (Rik Samhita 10 – 169 – 4)
सा विश्वाय़ूः सा विश्वकर्मा सा विश्वधायाः।
That cow would augment the life span of the sages involved in the sacrifices and the doer of the sacrifices. Cow coordinates all the rituals of the sacrifices. By providing offerings like milk, cow nourishes all the Gods of the sacrifices. (Shulka Yajurveda 1-4)
आ गावो अग्मन्नुत भद्रकम्रन् सीदंतु गोष्मेरणयंत्वस्मे ।
प्रजावतीः पुरुरूपा इहस्स्युरिंद्राय पूर्वीरुष्सोदुहानाः ॥
यूयं गावो मे दयथा कृशं चिदश्रीरं चित्कृणुथा सुप्रतीकम् ।
भद्र गृहं कृणुथ भद्रवाचो बृहद्वो वय उच्यते सभासु ॥
Oh Cows! With your milk and ghee you make the physically weak strong, and nurture the sick to health. With your sacred utterances, you chastise our homes. Your glory is discussed in gatherings. (Atharvana Veda 4-21-11 and 6)
वशां देवा उपजीवंति वशां मनुष्या उप ।
वशेदं सर्वं भवतु यावतु सूर्यो विपश्यति ॥
The Gods and men live on cow products. Till the Sun shines, the universe will have Cows. The whole universe depends on the support of cow. (Atharvana Veda 10-10-34)
सा नो मंद्रेषमूर्जम् दुहाना ।
धेनुर्वा गस्मानुष सुष्टुतैतु ॥
She is Kamadhenu – the divine cow that fulfils all our desires. Her body is of cow and face is of a woman. She was born before the amrutha when the ocean was churned. Her hair exudes fragrance. From her udder she showers Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. She is an abode to self-knowledge, shelters, Sun, Moon and Fire God. All the Gods and the living beings depend on her. She provides us with food and supreme knowledge even when we mildly pray. Let her be near us.
पीतोदका जग्धतृणा दुग्धदेहा निरिंद्रियाः ।
आनंदा नाम तेलोकस्तान् स गच्चति ता ददत् ॥
These cows have eaten grass and have taken water. They have been milked. They are past reproductive age. One who donates these old cows will go to place of darkness devoid of pleasures. Instead, donate me. (Kathopanishat – Nachiketa tells sage Vajashravas during Vishwajit Yaga)
गोकुलस्य तृषार्तस्य जलार्थे वसुधाधिपः ।
उत्पादयति यो विघ्नं तं विद्याद्ब्रह्मघातिनम् ॥
Obstructing provision of water to thirsty cows should be considered equal to the sin of killing Brahmins. (Mahabharata, Anushasana Parva 24-7)
गवां मूत्रपुरीषस्य नोद्विजेत कथंचन ।
न चासां मांसमश्नीयाद्गवां पुष्टिं तथाप्नुयात् ॥
Do not hesitate to consume cow urine and cow dung – they are sacred. But one should never eat the cow meat. A person becomes stronger by consuming Panchagavya. (Mahabharata, Anushasana Parva 78-17)
गावो ममाग्रतो नित्यं गावः पृष्ठत एव च ।
गावो मे सर्वतश्चैव गवां मध्ये वसाह्यहम् ॥
Let there be cows in front of me, behind me and all around me. I live with the cows. (Mahabharata, Anushasana Parva 80-3)
दानानामपि सर्वेषां गवां दानं प्रशस्यते ।
गावः श्रेष्ठाः पवित्राश्च पावनं ह्येतदुत्तमम् ॥
Donation of cows is superior to all others. Cows are supreme and sacred. (Mahabharata, Anushasana Parva 83-3)
सर्वोपनिषदो गावो दोग्धा गोपालनंदनः ।
पार्थो वत्सः सुधीर्भोक्तादुग्धं गीतामृतः महत् ॥
Bhagavad-Gita is the essence of Upanishads. It is like a cow whom Srikrishna milks. Arjuna is like a calf. The learned devotees are drinking the ambrosial milk of Bhagavad-Gita.
गौर्मे माता वृषभः पिता मे दिवं शर्म जगते मे प्रतिष्ठा ।
Cow is my mother and ox my father. Let the pair bless me with happiness in this world and bliss in heaven. I depend on cow for my life – thus stating one should surrender to cow.
गावो बंधुर्मनुष्याणां मनुष्याबांधवा गवाम् ।
गौः यस्मिन् गृहेनास्ति तद्बंधुरहितं गृहम् ॥
Cows are the abode of the Goddess of wealth. Sins don’t touch them. There exists a fine relationship between man and cow. A home without a cow is like one without dear ones. (Padmapurana)
वागिंद्रियस्वरूपायै नमः ।
वाचावृत्तिप्रद्दयिन्यै नमः ॥
अकारादिक्षकारांतवैखरीवक्स्वरूपिण्य़ै नमः ॥
By the service of the cow and consuming cow products, awareness and spirit, both enhance. (Atri Samhita 310)
यन्न वेद्ध्वनिध्यांतं न च गोभिरलंकृतम् ।
यन्नबालैः परिवृतं श्मशानमिव तद्गृहम् ॥
The house where Vedas are not chanted, where cows are not seen where children are not around it is like a graveyard. (Vishnusmriti)
गोमूत्रगोमयं सर्पि क्षीरं दधि च रोचना ।
षदंगमेतत् परमं मांगल्यं सर्वदा गवाम् ॥
Cow’s urine, dung, milk, ghee, curd and gorochana – these six are the most auspicious products.

Agriculture

Joys of Cow Based Farming

Indian agriculture has variety. There is no farm-product that we don’t cultivate. Our land grows all kinds of grains, pulses, vegetables, fruits, flowers, cotton and silk.
About 70% of our population has embraced agriculture as profession. Majority of them are small farmers, owning one or two acres of land.
Our agricultural landscape is diverse and vivid – in land topology, soil type and quality, irrigation method and frequency of harvesting.
Cattle are integral part of this huge canvas of agriculture. We use oxen to plough, to pick and move harvested crops, in irrigation, cow manure as fertiliser, and cow urine as insecticide.
Unique Role of Cow in Agriculture :

Cow Based Agriculture

In our country with small holdings and small scale farming, there is no better alternative to employing cattle in farming.
While ploughing, the oxen stride with gentle gait, not harming the surface of the earth, unlike tractors.
Even as they plough the land, the oxen defecate and urinate, fertilising the land.
Cattle Manure : organic manure, green leaf manure, earth-worms, and slurry manure with cattle manure bond with the nature and make the land fertile. They do not create the challenge of chemical waste.
99% of the insects in nature are beneficial to the system. Insecticides prepared from cow urine or well fermented butter milk do not affect these helpful insects.
Dung from one cow is adequate to fertilise 5 acres of land and its urine is can protect 10 acres of crop from insects.
As per the Supreme Court, cow dung produced by one oxen can support a family for 4 years.
Oxen do not pollute the atmosphere.

Usheera Grass

Usheera or Lavancha is known to Indians for at least five thousand years. But this less explored Indian grass went abroad just 25 years ago. Now people from more than 25 countries are teaching us to how to use it for organic farming to Tsunami prevention.
Ramayana stories teach us how twins of Lord Rama were brought up by sages. They were named after two living beings of Nature. The word Lava literally means a type of small bird. Kusha is a grass type. Even today an aromatic rooted grass Vetiver, having a shape of Darbha grass is called as Khus grass in Hindi. The original word derives from it’s Sanskrit root Kusha. The Hindi word Khus means joy and happiness. Thus the aromatic root of Vetiver is considered to be not only useful in Vedic rituals but also as grass to bring happiness. As a matter of fact this grass has number of functions to conserve our nature. It is a life saving drug. It is a panacea for all problems of Environment and farming.
A grass which can have its aerial blade growth up to two meters can have its root as deep as 10 meters! People often call it as living nail. This is a fact without any exaggeration. Imagine a height of one coconut tree under the ground. This is the depth of matted grass reach underneath the ground! Thus the soil binding and water harvest capacity of your land is facilitated by planting Vetiver in your village or farming land. Even bulldozers can not uproot its strong deep root systems. So this can definitely work as a “living nail” particularly in sea coasts not only to prevent Sea erosion in Monsoon months, but also dreaded Psunami currents! Many experiments with the cultivation of Vetiver to prevent land slides has also yielded. It keeps soil intact. Cement uses reduce greatly.
Other uses of Vetiver plant is hereunder:

The well grown plants yield lot of herbage in the form of leaves. This is very good material for mulching.
The tender leaf is a wonderful grass. It can be used as a very good fodder for livestock. It enriches quantity and quality of milk.
The grass blade is used for thatching roof at villages. Such friendly sheds and houses are very useful to prevent cement use in excess.
The grass blade is a good source of raw material for handicrafts. It can also be used for making hand made paper. Thus it is good resource for rural employment generation.
The root systems are very powerful to rejuvenate soil. It can improve soil fertility. It can also convert fallow lands in to fertile in course of time.
Vetiver grass can be grown in contaminated water. It can definitely work as a natural water purifier. So heavy metals of water can be purified using Vetiver. This is good in case of industrial sewage water flows in to fertile land.
Aromatic oil distilled from root is very expensive. It has good market potentials.
Roots are considered as a very good medicine in Ayurveda. It is used in Human and livestock medicine. Hyperacidity, piles, Bleeding disorders, Skin diseases, any problem with urinary tract is cured by employing various medicines containing Vetiver root.
Senegal farmers are finding very good yield, increased out put in many horticultural crops which are mixed with cultivation of Vetiver grass. Mr. Tony Cisse, a farmer says that the fruit trees are to be covered with this grass in the ground. This facilitates increased absorption of nutrients. It also helps for optimal water conservation.
Vettiver can sustain any hostile climate or situation. It can be grown in rain shadowed area also in view of making land fertile. Even mine dump can facilitate the growth of this soil. Thus the mined soil can be converted as useful soil gradually. Water clogged area, seacoast can also be ideal. Even if fire destroys the areal part, roots can generate shoot system.
Diluted Vetiver root oil is working as a very good pesticide. It can be employed to prevent many plant pathogens. It is also good termite repellent. Leaf concoction is also mild fungicidal. Roots can also be used to prevent microorganisms. It can be used in the form of fumigation.
Leaf of this grass is very good raw material for vermi compost.

Hindu Religion

Even the gods pray to the cow. She contains the divinity of all the Gods. A pious day starts with her worship. She has prominence in various religious festivals. Sankranti and Deepavali are specially cow related festivals. Cow products are essential in different religious rituals. Thus, cow is integral part of our life.

Cow in Vedas and Puranas

यः पौरुषेण क्रविषा समंक्ते यो अश्वेन पशुना यातुधानः ।

ये अघ्न्याये भरति क्षीरमग्ने तेषां शीर्षाणि हरसापि वृश्चः ॥

Oh fire god, with your flames burn the heads of those demons who eat the meat of humans, animals like horse and cow, and those who steal cows’ milk. (Rik Samhita 87 – 161)

प्रजापतिर्मह्यमेता रराणो विश्वैर्देवैः पितृभिः संविदानः ।

शिवाः सतीरुप नो गोष्ठमाकस्तासां वयं प्रजया संसदेम ॥

May the supreme Lord, complemented by all the Gods, create auspicious and spacious cowsheds for our happiness and populate them with cows and calves. Let us rejoice the cow-wealth and contend by serving those cows. (Rik Samhita 10 – 169 – 4)

सा विश्वाय़ूः सा विश्वकर्मा सा विश्वधायाः।

That cow would augment the life span of the sages involved in the sacrifices and the doer of the sacrifices. Cow coordinates all the rituals of the sacrifices. By providing offerings like milk, cow nourishes all the Gods of the sacrifices. (Shulka Yajurveda 1-4)

आ गावो अग्मन्नुत भद्रकम्रन् सीदंतु गोष्मेरणयंत्वस्मे ।

प्रजावतीः पुरुरूपा इहस्स्युरिंद्राय पूर्वीरुष्सोदुहानाः ॥

यूयं गावो मे दयथा कृशं चिदश्रीरं चित्कृणुथा सुप्रतीकम् ।

भद्र गृहं कृणुथ भद्रवाचो बृहद्वो वय उच्यते सभासु ॥

Oh Cows! With your milk and ghee you make the physically weak strong, and nurture the sick to health. With your sacred utterances, you chastise our homes. Your glory is discussed in gatherings. (Atharvana Veda 4-21-11 and 6)

वशां देवा उपजीवंति वशां मनुष्या उप ।

वशेदं सर्वं भवतु यावतु सूर्यो विपश्यति ॥

The Gods and men live on cow products. Till the Sun shines, the universe will have Cows. The whole universe depends on the support of cow. (Atharvana Veda 10-10-34)

सा नो मंद्रेषमूर्जम् दुहाना ।

धेनुर्वा गस्मानुष सुष्टुतैतु ॥

She is Kamadhenu – the divine cow that fulfils all our desires. Her body is of cow and face is of a woman. She was born before the amrutha when the ocean was churned. Her hair exudes fragrance. From her udder she showers Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. She is an abode to self-knowledge, shelters, Sun, Moon and Fire God. All the Gods and the living beings depend on her. She provides us with food and supreme knowledge even when we mildly pray. Let her be near us.

पीतोदका जग्धतृणा दुग्धदेहा निरिंद्रियाः ।

आनंदा नाम तेलोकस्तान् स गच्चति ता ददत् ॥

These cows have eaten grass and have taken water. They have been milked. They are past reproductive age. One who donates these old cows will go to place of darkness devoid of pleasures. Instead, donate me. (Kathopanishat – Nachiketa tells sage Vajashravas during Vishwajit Yaga)

गोकुलस्य तृषार्तस्य जलार्थे वसुधाधिपः ।

उत्पादयति यो विघ्नं तं विद्याद्ब्रह्मघातिनम् ॥

Obstructing provision of water to thirsty cows should be considered equal to the sin of killing Brahmins. (Mahabharata, Anushasana Parva 24-7)

पार्थो वत्सः सुधीर्भोक्तादुग्धं गीतामृतः महत् ॥

Bhagavad-Gita is the essence of Upanishads. It is like a cow whom Srikrishna milks. Arjuna is like a calf. The learned devotees are drinking the ambrosial milk of Bhagavad-Gita.

Agriculture

Joys of Cow Based Farming

Indian agriculture has variety. There is no farm-product that we don’t cultivate. Our land grows all kinds of grains, pulses, vegetables, fruits, flowers, cotton and silk.

About 70% of our population has embraced agriculture as profession. Majority of them are small farmers, owning one or two acres of land.

Our agricultural landscape is diverse and vivid – in land topology, soil type and quality, irrigation method and frequency of harvesting.

Cattle are integral part of this huge canvas of agriculture. We use oxen to plough, to pick and move harvested crops, in irrigation, cow manure as fertiliser, and cow urine as insecticide.

Unique Role of Cow in Agriculture :

Cow Based Agriculture

In our country with small holdings and small scale farming, there is no better alternative to employing cattle in farming.
While ploughing, the oxen stride with gentle gait, not harming the surface of the earth, unlike tractors.
Even as they plough the land, the oxen defecate and urinate, fertilising the land.
Cattle Manure : organic manure, green leaf manure, earth-worms, and slurry manure with cattle manure bond with the nature and make the land fertile. They do not create the challenge of chemical waste.
99% of the insects in nature are beneficial to the system. Insecticides prepared from cow urine or well fermented butter milk do not affect these helpful insects.
Dung from one cow is adequate to fertilise 5 acres of land and its urine is can protect 10 acres of crop from insects.
As per the Supreme Court, cow dung produced by one oxen can support a family for 4 years.
Oxen do not pollute the atmosphere.

Lathur in Maharashtra had a devastating earthquake on 30 September 1993. Devani breed of cows in that place had been behaving strange, crying and jumping around a few days before this as a warning to the people. We could not decipher the message.
Similar things happened before Tsunami in 2004 too. Then, Baraguru, Amblacheri and Kangayam breed of cows behaved strangely. We could not get the message again.

Characteristics of Cow
Overall Characteristics :

Indian Cow Breed

The Indian cow belongs to Bass Indicus variety.
High shoulder, flappy under-neck, and Suryaketu nerve on the back are easy differentiators of the variety.
It is believed that Suryaketu nerve absorbs medicinal essences from atmosphere and makes milk, urine and cow dung more nourishing.

Skin :

High shoulder, flappy hanging dewlaps under-neck, and long ears increase the area of skin that sweats and keeps the body cooler. This is apt for our climate.
Sweat glands are wider and the sweat is aromatic, protecting from monsoon-insects.
The cow drives away insects by swift muscle movements
With small hair, skin remains clean.
With all these uniqueness, an Indian ox can work with comfort in rain and shine.

Tail :

Long enough to touch ground.
Tail joint is unique and allows swirling around till the neck.
It also swats flies and insects.

Hoof :

Joined, does not gather twigs and dirt.
Indian ox has smaller and strong hoof. This is suited for ploughing and pulling cart.
Some of the Indian varieties can work without horse-shoes.
Unlike tractor, the ox does not harden the top soil and kill the helpful insects.

Chromosome :

Different actions and features of the body are controlled by chromosomes.
As a cow would always have adequate quantity of chromosome, there is no infertility for generations.

Life Activities :

Basal metabolic rate(BMR) is the amount of energy expended while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment.
Indian cow has a lower BMR. In draught it can survive with small quantity of food. Though it becomes weaker then, it recovers fast when it gets nourishment.
Such temporary difficulties do not later affect its milk yield or fertility.

Immunity to Disease :

Cows are born with immunity to diseases. There is no difference between the ones grazing in the fields or kept in the sheds.
This reduces the expenditure on their medical care.
For this reason, America and Europe import Indian cows, cross breed with local variety to improve their immunity.

Efficiency :

Indian ox has strong muscles and long legs. They work for long hours in difficult conditions.
High shoulder holds the plough well.

Caring :

Cows can be housed in very ordinary shed and even under a tree.
Some Indian varieties require very little food.
In villages they generally roam around fields and forests through the day.

Milk :

Gir – Best Milking Breed

Some Indian breed cows give up to 20 litres of milk per day.
Main varieties of Indian milch cows are Gir, Sahival, Tharparker, Rati and Sindhi.
We can improve other breeds by better care and nourishment.

Panchagavya :

Constitutes cow urine, cow dung, milk, curd and ghee.
Used as food, medicine, manure and insecticide.
They increase immunity to diseases.
Without side effects, they fight cancer, hypertension, skin diseases, and urinary diseases.

Role of Cow in the Battlefield

Apart from responding to our daily needs, cows have fought for us in battlefields!
Recorded Battles :

When Hyder Ali was ruling the Mysore State, the Nizam of Hyderabad attacked Chitradurga Fort. Hyder Ali had a fleet of Amrit Mahal oxen in his army! He tied burning torches to the horns of 237 of these oxen and let them attack Nizam’s army, resulting in the defeat of 3,000 strong attacking army.
Captain Javinson had Amrit Mahal oxen in his brigade in Afghanistan. As recorded by him, when his troop travelled in narrow valleys of Teri hills in 1842, the oxen were cheerful even after pulling the carts for 16 continuous hours.
Commanding Officer Lord Wellesley credits the Amrit Mahal oxen for his victory over Napoleon in Pensular War.
Amrit Mahal oxen were part of the troop deployed in Mesopotamia in First Word War (1914 – 1918). They surprised the people by walking faster than camels, crossing narrow valleys and bridges with tact, adapting to adverse weather conditions and fighting with even reduced feed.

English Translation
Dhenu Stotram
Dhenu Stotram is in Sanskrit. It is a very beautiful creation of Shri Sridhar Swami on the auspicious day of Govatsa Dwadashi at Vardapuram Karnataka in the year 1964. Dhenu (Cow) is very pious, holy and as per our belief all Gods and Goddess have taken her shelter i.e. they live in her. Dhenu is just like our mother. Whenever we worship Dhenu they (Gods and Goddess) become pleased. This Dhenu Stotram describes why we worship Dhenu and why Dhenu is pious for us. In Diwali festival many people in India worship SaVatsa Dhenu (Cow having a Calf) on VasuBaras i.e. Aswin (Name of the Month in which Diwali is celebrated.) Krushana Dwadashi. This year we celebrated it on 3rd November 2010.
1 O! GoMata (Cow as mother)! I bow to you; being pious you make us like you. In the world in which we live, you are our boat which can lead us to the bank in a righteous way. We can live in this world filled with many difficulties and troubles; taking your shelter.
2 O! Dhenu! Gods and Goddesses live in you i.e. they have taken your shelter. They become pleased when we worship you. Vedas have also praised you in many ways. Your milk is our life energy and Ghee is the life for us.
3 O! Dhenu! Gods are always become powerful; acquire knowledge, peace, devotion, intelligence and good position because of your Milk and Ghee (prepared by milk). Hence we ordinary people can also receive all such blessings by worshiping you.
4 As Aghni (Fire) burns wood, so your Panchagavya of holy Dhenu burns our sins and purify us. Panchagavya is described as very pious and Brahmin people drink it as pious water. Dhenu you are very pious and you feed and protect us.
5 In Vedas you are described as Brahma. God Shri Krishana had served you and hence my serving you or worshiping is not of much importance or of much value. So also I am being ordinary man unable to describe your greatness and virtues.
6 Anybody worshiping Dhenu every day and serving her with devotion, chanting this Dhenu Stotram; will become happy and receive Knowledge, Wealth, Sound Health and devotion. Thus here completes Dhenu Stotram created by Sridhar Swami.

Estimado doctor:

Con fecha 18 de agosto recién pasado le informé el estado de María luego de haber seguido sus indicaciones para el tratamiento postoperatorio. A fines de octubre se tomó radiografía de torax, ecotomografía y mamografía, de los que le adjunto copia de sus informes. Ayer le llevamos al médico alópata que le controla estos mismo informes y los encontró tan buenos que le indicó nuevo control en seis meses más y le redujo la dosis de calcio a una vez cada tres meses.

Podrá imaginarse lo contento que estamos. Ella se siente sana y sin ninguna secuela de la enfermedad. Nuestra consulta es qué remedios y en qué cantidad debe continuar tomando de acuerdo al resultado de los informes. Con ansia esperamos su respuesta. Lo saluda muy atentamente.
