Where Cow Service is, There is Prosperity and Peace
Nilesh Dada Maharaj, a renowned storyteller of Cow Tales, Bhagwat, Devi Bhagwat, Ram, and Shiva narratives, highlighted the paramount importance of cow protection, service, and cow-rearing in today’s religious and spiritual context. He remarked that where Cow Mata resides, there are no negative influences such as Yamdoots, ghosts, pollution, vastu defects, untimely death, viral infections, or the adverse effects of lunar and solar eclipses. The atmosphere remains pure and divine, celestial bodies yield favorable results, and blessings from ancestors and deities are abundant.
Emphasis on Listening to Cow Tales
He emphasized that listening to and practicing cow tales is more crucial than other religious texts like Devi Bhagwat, Shiva, Ram, and Bhagwat. Protecting and nurturing cows should be an inherent duty for every Sanatan practitioner.
Use of Cow Milk in Worship
Nilesh Dada Maharaj mentioned that using cow milk in worship and all religious ceremonies is scripturally appropriate and religiously correct. He criticized packaged milk as ‘Putana Mausi’ and warned that the use of milk from hybrid cows, prevalent in many households, is harmful and leads to dangerous diseases.
Learning from Hanuman’s Character to Improve Life
He advocated for the effective practice and devotion to Lord Hanuman in the current age, stating that all worldly tasks are quickly accomplished through Hanuman’s contemplation and prayer. He urged individuals to learn from Hanuman’s character to improve their lives.
