Today, the world is at the pinnacle of progress in science and technology, which have taken humanity to great heights of material achievements. We are far more prosperous than at any time in the recorded history of mankind. But surprisingly and on the contrary, this materialistic progress and lifestyle have resulted in dissatisfied individuals, unprecedented greed, reckless consumption of precious natural resources, ecological imbalance, thus resulting in large-scale ecological disasters. The recent massive floods in Kerala is a case in point. How do we address these problems? Srila Prabhupada, Founder-Acharya of ISKCON, has proposed an alternative lifestyle that is filled with purpose and balance. Today’s education system is based on the western thought of consumerism, which aims at only artha and kama, without the balancing act of dharma, moksha and Bhagavad prema. Srila Prabhupada wanted us to establish cultural centres that present Vedic wisdom and culture in a most appropriate manner for attracting modern minds. This will arrest the imbalances in the current society. In this regard, on 2nd April 2017, we have performed the Shilanyas or Bhumi Puja ceremony in Mysuru. This ceremony was conducted in the presence of His Excellency Honourable Governor of Karnataka Sri Vajubhai Rudabhai Vala, Her Highness Dr. Pramoda Devi Wadiyar and many other dignitaries. We propose to set up a grand Nava Brindavan Dham ISKCON Mysuru cultural complex. It aims to influence and transform a large number of people to change their values towards voluntary simplicity of lifestyle. Mysuru is renowned for its cultural heritage; our project aims to be part of the rich heritage. In an initiative to recognise, nurture and build talent among marginalised families, Great India Talent School was inaugurated in Tripura. This school will provide textbooks, notebooks, uniform and mid-day meals to the children on an entirely free of cost (100% FOC) basis. This program is run by devotees of ISKCON Bangalore through the Great India Talent Foundation. We are hopeful that with more support from society, we will expand the reach of this initiative throughout the country. Further, this year, considering the ever-expanding reach of Bangalore city, it was felt that we celebrate Sri Krishna Janmashtami in one more location, besides the celebrations in our existing three branches in the city. Thus we have celebrated Sri Krishna Janmashtami in Palace Grounds. Despite heavy rains, around 11,000 visitors took part in the celebrations. Taking advantage of the additional infrastructure at Palace Grounds, our devotees brought in variety to celebrate Janmashtami. The construction of Rajadiraja Sri Srinivasa Govinda Temple is going on at the upcoming cultural complex at Vasanthapura, Bangalore. On completion, this temple will be the first of its kind, wherein such a heavy structure made of stone is on the first floor. The temple will resemble the most famous temple at Thirumala and the stapathi is also from Thirumala Devasthanam. There will be Kalyanotsavam and Annadanam halls on the ground floor of the temple. I appeal to the donors and patrons of the Society to generously contribute to this cause. I invoke the blessings of Their Lordships Sri Sri Radha Krishnachandra upon all stakeholders of ISKCON Bangalore who always support our humble efforts to take spirituality to all. May Lord Krishna bless us all. Madhu Pandit Dasa President 04 SRILA PRABHUPADA His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the Founder-Acharya of ISKCON, who is popularly known as Srila Prabhupada, stands out distinctly among great personalities for connecting souls world wide to the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krishna in bhakti. In 1932, Srila Prabhupada became a formally initiated disciple of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura of the Gaudiya Vaishnava sampradaya. Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura instructed Srila Prabhupada to preach the message of Lord Krishna to all: “You try to preach whatever you have learned from me to the English speaking people of the world. That will be good for you and for the people to whom you preach. That is my instruction to you.” Taking this instruction as his life and soul, Srila Prabhupada started translation of Vedic literatures like Srimad Bhagavad-gita and Srimad Bhagavatam to English. Although he had no funds or any immediate support for this endeavour, Srila Prabhupada continued to render these translations meticulously. He started the publication of a monthly magazine called Back to Godhead in English in 1944. Despite setbacks in his effort to spread the mission of his spiritual master in India, he went ahead to carry out his work in the West. In 1965, Srila Prabhupada sailed to America in a cargo ship having just forty rupees in hand and a few of his works in print, with the objective to preach to the English-speaking people, the Absolute Truth. What followed is the unfathomable growth of Vaishnavism and Lord Krishna worship in the West. Srila Prabhupada, the 32nd bonafide spiritual master in the line of Brahma-Madhva-Gaudiya Vaishnavism, translated and wrote purports to 8,172 verses of Srimad Bhagavatam, 700 verses of Bhagavad-gita and 11,555 verses of Chaitanya-charitamrita. He started a monthly magazine Back to Godhead which crossed at one point a distribution of more than one million copies a month. This magazine is now translated and printed in over thirty languages and distributed in different parts of the world. The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust was established in 1972 to publish the works of His Divine Grace and soon became the world’s largest publisher of books in the field of Indian religion and philosophy. He published a total of 160 books. In the last few years of his presence in this material world, he lived in Vrindavana and engaged in deep devotional contemplation and in 1977 he left his material body but he still exists in his books and instructions, guiding his disciples and taking them back to Godhead. In short, Srila Prabhupada built a house in which the whole world can live together and develop inquisitiveness towards the real purpose of life. By his mercy, this blinded, fast-paced material world got vision and direction. This movement has given an opportunity to everyone to take up the chanting of the holy names of Lord Krishna, which is the recommended process for spiritual liberation in this age. Lord Chaitanya said, “All over the world, in every town and village, this Harinama sankirtana will spread.” And that is being achieved by Srila Prabhupada’s mission. Srila Prabhupada is truly a great ambassador of India’s heritage and has fulfilled the prophecy of Lord Chaitanya. In all of Srila Prabhupada’s writings and talks, the outpouring of a pure devotee for the love of his Lord Krishna is evident. It is this pure love for God expressed by him that has touched thousands of souls and inspired them to look beyond mere material existence, to a life of higher consciousness. 05 MESSAGE Recently, we had an opportunity to visit ISKCON temple of Bengaluru, and we express our pleasure regarding the creative initiatives of the institution. We are proud to inform that Srila Bhakti Vedanta Prabhupada is a close follower of Madhva tradition and Tattvavada. Following objectives of ISKCON made an impression on us: 1.

Valpey The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series Series Editors Andrew Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford, UK Priscilla N. Cohn Pennsylvania State University Villanova, PA, USA Associate Editor Clair Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford, UK In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way, and now a range of other scholars have followed from historians to social scientists. From being a marginal issue, animals have become an emerging issue in ethics and in multidisciplinary inquiry. Tis series will explore the challenges that Animal Ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human-animal relations. Specifcally, the Series will: • provide a range of key introductory and advanced texts that map out ethical positions on animals • publish pioneering work written by new, as well as accomplished, scholars; • produce texts from a variety of disciplines that are multidisciplinary in character or have multidisciplinary relevance.

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

  • The Management of Cow Shelters (Gaushalas) in India, Including the Attitudes of Shelter Managers to Cow Welfare
    animals Article The Management of Cow Shelters (Gaushalas) in India, Including the Attitudes of Shelter Managers to Cow Welfare Arvind Sharma 1,* , Catherine Schuetze 2 and Clive J.C. Phillips 1 1 Centre for Animal Welfare and Ethics, School of Veterinary Science, The University of Queensland, Gatton Campus 4343, Australia; [email protected] 2 Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, The University of Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-472-622-438 Received: 19 November 2019; Accepted: 23 January 2020; Published: 28 January 2020 Simple Summary: Sheltering of old, unproductive and abandoned cows in traditional cow shelters (gaushalas) is an ancient practice in India. Cows are venerated as mother goddesses by the Hindu majority population of the country and their slaughter is illegal in most states. Shelters are funded by the public, businesses, including corporate philanthropy, charitable societies, temple trusts and government. The manager of the shelter provides an interface between visitors, workers and cattle and is best able to understand the challenges of running shelters. The objective of this study was to collect and analyze information about the routine operations of the shelters and elicit managers’ attitudes towards cows and cow welfare. We visited 54 shelters, which admitted cattle all year, vaccinated them against endemic diseases and dewormed them. Limited biosecurity measures and erratic waste disposal raise concerns about public health. All the managers felt that the welfare of cows in their respective shelters was important and should be improved, but they were less certain that their knowledge of animal welfare was adequate.

INTRODUCTION This report deals with the situation of cows in the dairy sector in India and various factors that influence the condition of such animals. The situation with respect to cattle (specifically cows) used in the dairy industry has to be viewed with a somewhat different lens (compared to other animals that are raised for human consumption, either directly or indirectly) owing to the dynamics associated with the cultural and religious significance of cows within Hindu mythology and tradition. In a large majority of Indian states, especially those that have large cow populations, cow slaughter is banned.

The Maternal Personhood of Cattle and Plants at a Hindu Center in the United States Daniel Capper1 Abstract Religious experiences with sacred nonhuman natural beings considered to be “persons” remain only vaguely understood. This essay provides a measure of clarification by engendering a dialogue between psychoanalytic self psychology on one side and, on the other, religious experiences of cattle and Tulsi plants as holy mothers at a Hindu cattle sanctuary in the United States. Ethnographic data from the Hindu center uncover experiences of sacred maternal natural beings that are tensive, liminal, and colored with affective themes of nurturance, respect, and intimacy, much like psychoanalytic maternal selfobjects. Devotees protect cattle and ritually venerate plants because these actions facilitate a limited experiential grounding of religiosity on what is perhaps the most fundamental of all relationships, the relationship with the mother, within a theological worldview that somewhat embraces nonhuman natural beings in both doctrine and practice.
