Where the cow is family

In the Vedic tradition, the cow is revered as a mother — gentle, generous, and dear to Lord Krishna, who is Himself known as Govinda, the protector of cows. Our goshala provides 104 cows with a lifetime of shelter, nourishment and veterinary care.

Many of our cows were rescued from neglect. Here they live out their days in peace, served daily by devotees. Your seva provides their feed, medicine and care.
