The bhoomi pujan for this proposed gaushala took place on Tuesday evening under the guidance of Gopal Parivaar Sangh and Datadevi Foundation, in the presence of Gwal Sant Gopalnand Saraswati and Gokatha Vachka Didi Shraddha Saraswati.
India is the land of cows and cow herders
During the bhoomi pujan ceremony, Gwal Sant Gopalnand Saraswati Maharaj said that Gau Mata should be served, respected, and protected with dedicated devotion. He stated that this is the land of cow herders and cows, and if the cow is unhappy, how can we be happy? He mentioned that the glory of cow dung and urine is described not only in the Vedas and Puranas but also in modern texts. He emphasised that to protect the sovereignty of India and Sanatan Dharma, we must protect Gau Mata. Maharaj said that the cow’s role is paramount in the meaning and success of human life. Therefore, a region where Gau Mata is happy will also be happy and prosperous. The Gwal Sant said that land like the Bheer region of Chapar is not found anywhere else in the country. Regarding the expenditure on the construction of the gaushala, he said that we need contributions from all cow devotees in this sacred work so that India can be united in the vision of cow service. Trustees Vinod Jaju, Bajrang Baheti, Yogi Shyamnath, and Gow Kathavachika Shraddha Didi also shared their thoughts.
