His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
Founter-Acharya International Society for Krishna Consciousness.
Srila Prabhupada has always emphasized, Cow protection is a very important, and often overlooked part of Krishna consciousness. These are some of the quotes and paragraphs from Srila Prabhupada’s books and other recorded materials.
Krishna lives in Goloka Vrindavana. That is the biggest spiritual planet and it is lotus-shaped. Goloka Vrindavana is much, much bigger than all the Vaikuntha planets plus all the material universes put together. And Krishna lives there. But what is that place. It is the “planet of the cows.” It is simply a huge pasturing ground for Krishna’s cows.
So we can see how much Krishna likes cows. And from this you can understand how many problems and how much suffering is being caused in this world because cow killing is going on on such a huge scale. Even in India so many cows are being killed.
