काकी च हलिमा चैव रुद्राथ ब्रिहली तथा ।
आर्या पलाला वै मित्रा सप्तैताः शिशुमातरः ॥
kākī ca halimā caiva rudrātha brihalī tathā |

There are seven kinds of mothers according to Vedic injunction:
the real mother,
the wife of a teacher or spiritual master,
the wife of a king,
the wife of a brahmana,
the cow,
the nurse and the
mother earth.
Thanks to all those activists who spread the word about animal rights is that each day there are more and more vegans.
'' As long as there are slaughterhoses, there will be slaughterfields.'' Leo Tolstoi.
KILLIING and eating the sacred cow that is beloved of Sri Govinda is a demoniac pursuit and holds a price of very heavy BAD KARMIC reaction of long term suffering for all involved. Go Green be veggie save the planet and save the cows.Aum shanti Hari.
Cows are not mothers only to their babies, they are also mothers to our children and to us.
You can't drink their milk and than cut their throat. You can't cut the throat of your mother.
Cows are very peaceful animals giving their milk so we can drink it and transform it unto creme, cheese, yogurt, ice cream and so many dishes which are very tasteful and ful of nutriments. They are like mothers and we shouldn't kill any animal, it is so cruel.
There are many scientific reasons associated with Cow .. please see me earlier post :)
cows are our mother as they give us milk like our mother. as killing mother is an offence so it also should be punishable.
Cow is worshipped in Hindu mythology ,it has the greatest contribution in raising mankind so killing cows is a heinous crime...
In the world today, people are so confused....they talk about animal rights, and spend thousands of dollars on their dogs and cats.....calling them their "children", and then go eat their own mother in the form of a hamburger.. This is a very demoniac mentality, and many people don't even give it a second thought, because the media has desensitized people....they see advertisements for buying fast food, and think it is OK. It is not OK, it is against the laws of God....to eat our own...

It is not OK, it is against the laws of God....to eat our own mother (the ancient Vedas teach that we have seven mothers, of which the cow is one) , and also even the dairy farms, to keep the cows in such a way that they can never roam freely, they are simply seen as "milk machines"...standing knee deep in their own excrement. Then, places that sell raw milk from cows that are raised with love and affection are fined and treated as criminal This is very demoniac.
