The Importance of Cow and Bull
The people of our times have forgotten that the Cow is the most important animal for human society. The Bull is the emblem of Dharma and the cow is the representative of the Earth. When the Bull and Cow are in a joyful mood, it is to be understood that the people of the world will also be in a joyful mood.
The reason is that the Bull helps in the production of grains in the agricultural field, and the Cow delivers milk, the miracle food which can be further converted into curd, yogurt, butter, and ghee. Milking a Cow means drawing the principle of religion in liquid form. Cow's milk is so pure that it is considered liquid religiosity. So in scriptures, Cow is considered to be one of our MOTHERS.
The Cows give milk and the Bull gives grains through tilling the land, they are considered the MOTHER and the FATHER of human society. Both the Cow and Bull are symbols of the most offenceless living beings because even their dung and urine are of IMMENSE VALUE (medicinal, fuel, etc.) to human society.

What We Do
Our Responsibility
Human society must, therefore, maintain these two animals carefully. But, unfortunately, both are being slaughtered in large numbers. In India, it is 60,000 per day, and in the U.S., on weekends, it is 1,59,500 according to recent statistics. These greatly sinful acts are responsible for many troubles in present society.
To kill cows means to end human civilization. People do not know what harm they are doing in the name of economic development. They do not realize that only by seeing that bulls and cows are happy in all respects, human society can be happy. This is a FACT by the LAWS OF NATURE.
Protection of Cows is the single most important principle towards saving the world from both moral and spiritual degradation. Simply by protecting Cows, all the wonderful benefits of religiosity and piety will be automatically achieved without any separate endeavor. This is because Cows are beloved of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna.
