material nature is working under My direction."

STORY TIME
2
Kamdhenu is a
divine cow.
She has the power
to fulfill all wishes.
She appeared
during the churning
of the ocean
Kamdhenu lived in
the ashram of Sage
Vasishta.
“Do you
have enough
food to fed
my army?”
“I have my
cow
Kamadhenu
to prepare a
big feast for
you and
your army”
“What will you do with the
cow in this forest? This cow
will be more useful to a king.
Give me this cow as a gift. ”
“No, I cannot give
Kamadhenu to you”
When Vashistha did not agree to his
demand, Viswamitra forcefully captured
the cow
Separated from the
sage who was like a
father to her, Nandini was
so sad that she ran away
from the king’s palace .
She went back to Sage
Vashishtha
Vishvamitra becomes a brahmarishi
Lord Krishna was called Gopala when he was a baby.
Gopala literally means “protector of cows”.
Cow protection is very important and synonymous to
protection of the Nature and spreading love and good
emotions all around.
Nanda Maharaja had 900,000 cows. Krishna
knew every cow by name. If any cow was
missing Krishna would immediately chase
after the missing cow and call her by name.
