It is said in our scriptures the punya ( blessings of `GOSAMRAKSHANA'  is carried to about seven generations. Here we are getting the opportunity to act and it may be wise to do so.

Also the objective is to protect the local variety which are hardy and presently on a rapid decreasing count.  

 This Goshala trust will help us to Galvanize our efforts for their protection and increase of these native breeds

We have this Goshala `in a 10acre land,' located in Thiruvallur district, Off Poondi reservoir, on way to Uthukotai –thiruthani route in a place called Goonipalayam.

There are few acres of agriculture land in this land where we propose to raise good fodder for the cows.

We propose to take care of the cows under Sadvidya Paripalana trust which is already into giving valuable Krishna Yajur veda education to a group of students. The Goshala wing of the trust is mooted here where we plan to run it with equal participation of all willing donors.

At present the farm has two breed of native cattle

Hallikar & Kangayam

The Hallikar is a Bos indicus breed selected primarily for draft purposes It is considered one of the premier draft breeds in India. They are found primarily in the southern region of Karnataka state, in the area surrounding Mysore, In addition to normal draft uses the breed is also used for cart racing. Once trained, a team of Hallikar oxen can pull a loaded cart over rough roads at a rate of 40 miles per day.

 The Kangeyam or Kangayam cattle derives its name from the Kangeyam taluk which is in the state of Tamil nadu.  It is considered a good draught breed in South India. The milk of Kangayam cows has a high nutritious value with no bad fat. The breed is on the wane, although individual conservative efforts are bearing some fruit.

SOME  NUGGETS  FROM  THE  SCRIPTURES –

In Garuda purana its written in the 4^th chapter on Charity and Dharmic acts `Garuda who is learned in Vedas worshipped Sriman Narayanan who is the protector of the entire world and addressed him

`Paramatma, tell me if a person does charity and good deeds with a pure heart what are the benefits he will get? If the son’s and relatives will do the charity for him after death what are the benefits he will get?

God Tirumal lying on his snake bed tells Garuda the following …

`My dear child! After the person dies whatever benefit he may get by some one doing for him charity will not equal to he himself doing  charity during his life time. That is why it is better for one to do charity before his death.

The good karmas and charity will grow like a fire fed by ghee.

The Vaithirini Godanam is a important charity done by a holy man- which entails giving charity of a cow to some one during his life time which will help him to cross the dreadful `Vaithirini river peacefully. Our scriptures are replete with details of how service to Gomatha is an important aspect of dharma and punya karma. Let us all pitch in this noble act and save our souls and the environment by serving the Gomatha
