I want to make a bridge between Human and Cow.
At the outset ,I have to say few lines about my earlier blogs.
When I
started blog writing just 3 years ago, I get an opportunity of reaching hundreds of readers
.Commenting on a blog is something that the readers do voluntarily . I wish the
readers would comment on the blog site itself .but most of the feedback I receive tends to be simply positive without comment,
which readers can indicate using the reaction buttons on Face book instead of
commenting.
My Blogs
are basically like a diary for me. I like to share about my life experiences and
feelings. Blogs are like an open diary and readers can read the articles. There’s
a lot to do.
Thanks for any, readers can post ! Much
appreciated!
For me, blog writing is like share something
about myself or my idea/ thought / action on the matter.
I narrate my recent action for the noble
cause..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recently, I had an opportunity to visit the AYARPADI
-- GOSHALA (Thiruvallur), managed by Sri Veeraraghava Swamy Devasthanam
Thiruvallur, which is under the Ahobila
Math.
Early 2013, the Goshala was inside the Sri
Veeraraghava Swamy temple itself when the cattle was less in number. Srimad
Azhagiyasingar suggested to shift the
goshala outside the temple premises mainly to improve cleanliness inside the
temple.
As desired by the Srimad Azhagiyasingar, temple management identified 1.5 acre land
owned by the temple on the highway leading to Thirupathi, within three km from
the temple for Goshala. The land was unoccupied except for a Mantapam named
after one Thanappa Naickan. Sri Veeraraghavan Swamy visits this Mantapam during
Brahmothsavam, every year.
I found that the temple management had been
provided with full design and requirement for a modern Goshala. Care had been
taken for Proper housing, feeding, and disease control, good health, comfort
and protection from inclement weather.
Further, the elevated and well-drained space
within a shed was set aside for each animal to stand or lie down. Exclusive
areas are provided for milch animals, dry animal, calving, sick animals, young
stock, calves and bulls. Separate areas are identified for milk collection,
food store, office room, medical centre, etc. which are positive aspects.
Goshala run entirely on non-commercial lines. The milk is used for preparation
of swami neivedyam and prasadam.
The management feeds animals as per the advise
of a veterinary doctor in attendance.
Management makes sure they have enough water, clean their cages, walk
them, pet them and care for sick animals that need special medical attention.
Now the Goshala has around 350 cattle
including bulls and calves. The Goshala has been aptly attended by dedicated
workmen .
Srimad Azhagiyasingar the hereditary trustee
of the temple is taking special interest
in the project and visits the site whenever he is in Thiruvallur.
Normally our love for animals is so deep, most
of you will always do whatever help the animal requires and try to save their
lives especially Cows.
For me, the cow is considered sacred &
holy in Hindu religion. Hindus worship cow on various occasions and call them
Gomata. Just consider how important cow is and cow products.
I want to make a bridge between human and Cow.
I am lucky enough to
have a number of Animal lovers who support the Cows, I am sure of getting
support from them.
The more money raised, and the more we can
help them with their projects like facelift , Housing the existing cows more spaciously, Grow more
fodder grass for the cows in-house ,etc.
In this circumstances, I have made an appeal
to my close relatives and like minded friends to extend a helping hand to
support the AYARPADI -- GOSHALA temple management in their efforts to maintain, preserve and protect , not
only from religious point of view but economical too.
In response to my Appeal for the donation for AYARPADI -- GOSHALA
(Thiruvallur) managed by Sri Veeraraghava Swamy
Devasthanam Thiruvallur for the support
to the projects like facelift of the Goshala
, Housing the existing cows more
spaciously, Grow more fodder grass for the cows in-house ,etc. through whats
app to all my relatives and like minded friends on 28th September
2019.Relatives and like minded Friends have donated around Rs. 1,50,000/-through cheques .( in the name of Sri Veera raghavaswami
Devasthanam.).within ten days and handed over all the cheques to Sri.C.C.Sampath,
the Hony.Agent and also personally visit
along with some of the donors and also witness what they have done all these
years in the Goshala.
This
response has helped the dedicated management team to reaffirm their commitment
of service towards Cows and Calves.
In my opinion , It
is everyone’s responsibility to support for this kind of noble cause.
