Cow Care in Hindu Animal Ethics Kenneth R
THE PALGRAVE MACMILLAN ANIMAL ETHICS SERIES Cow Care in Hindu Animal Ethics Kenneth R. 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.

Shivanandanagar, Distt. Tehri-Garhwal, Uttaranchal, Himalayas, India PUBLISHERS’ NOTE Sri Swami Sivanandaji. Maharaj was a healer of the body in his Purvashram (before he entered the Holy Order of Sannyasa). He was a born healer, with an extraordinary inborn love to serve humanity; that is why he chose the medical profession as a career. That is why he edited and published a health Journal “Ambrosia”. That is why he went over to Malaya to serve the poor in the plantations there. And, strangely enough, that is why, he renounced the world and embraced the Holy Order of Sannyasa. He was a healer of the body and the soul. This truth is reflected in the Ashram which he has established in Rishikesh. The huge hospital equipped with modern instruments was set up and the entire Ashram where all are welcome to get themselves healed of their heart’s sores and thoroughly refresh themselves in the divine atmosphere of the holy place. Sri Swamiji wanted that all systems of healing should flourish. He had equal love and admiration for all systems of healing. He wanted that the best of all the systems should be brought out and utilised in the service of Man. -

Aarsha Vani (Voice of Sanatana Dharma) April 2019 Volume: 5 Issue: 03 GURUVĀṆI Every individual has four mothers – 1. One who gave birth 2. Mother Earth 3. Mother Cow and 4. Motherland. It is the duty and responsibility of everyone to venerate, comfort, and protect all these four mothers. Among this, Gōmāta i.e. Mother Cow is being looked and treated from a religion view. But, it is important to understand that Gōmāta is the wealth and heritage of this country. No other cow in the world has the special and distinct characteristics of the cows of Bhārata. Hence, every individual, just as they receive benefits from cows, should exert themselves to protect the cows, irrespective of their religious affinity. – Samavedam Shanmukha Sarma.

Fundamental Concepts of Hinduism
Fundamental Concepts of Hinduism My Salutations to all Devas-Rishis-Pithrus OM DEDICATED TO LORD YAMA, MARKANDEYA, NACHIKETAS, SAVITRI AND NANDI, THE ETERNAL ATTENDANT OF LORD SIVA, WHO HAVE ALL UNRAVELLED THE MYSTERIES OF THE LIFE BEYOND DEATH OM "Hinduism is not just a faith. It is the union of reason and intuition that cannot be defined but is only to be experienced” - Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan (1888-1975) ॐ अञानतिमिरा्ध्य ञाना्जनशलाकया । चषुु्िीमलिं यॳन ि्िॴ रीगरवॳु निः ॥ om ajnana-timirandasya jnananjnana salakaya caksur unmilitam yena tasmai sri gurave namah “I offer my most humble obeisance to my spiritual master who has opened my eyes which were blinded by ignorance with the light of knowledge.: [FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION] 1 INTRODUCTION The Information on this article “Fundamental Concepts of Hinduism” furnished here in is compiled from various mail friends, internet sites and elders who have knowledge on this subject. The documents referred in the net sites are quoted as told but not gone through by me for their authencity. Every effort has been taken not to leave essential points but to make the reading informative and interesting. Since the subject matter is lengthy and it could not be confined in one or two postings - it may appear lengthy. Hindu Dharma says, “To lead a peaceful life, one must follow the Sastras which are the rules of the almighty that cannot be changed by passage of time(i.e.kruta,thretha,dwapara&kali yuga).The almighty says, “Shruthi smrithi mamaivaagya yaasthaam ullangya varthathe | Aagya chhedi mamadhrrohi math bhaktopi na vaishnavahah||” Which means,vedas and sastras are my commands and one who surpasses these rules have breaken my laws and cannot be considered as my bhakta or a vaishnava.
