INDIANS¿Is your sacred cow a member more of the family in your house?
Is your sacred cow a member more of the family in your house? Question that goes directed to indians friends of its cows and not so that those enemies indians and western who force indians to eat and to being enemy of its cows! If you are western or another foreigner who does not belong to India this question he is not for you! Respect so that the question this directed for indians friends and proprietors of sacred cow!
Oops! You are not Indian? Sorry for the "inside" references. I was talking about Krishna in his form of being a cowherd which is symbolic of being a great teacher and sustainer to us. You mean an actual "member" like a mother-in-law? Not like on the books as a "member" but greatly honored--sometimes more than some of the human "members", to be honest, unfortunately. Definitely will not get an arranged marriage. In Hindu culture (remember that India is a composite of many cultures, though "Hindu" is the most predominant), there is always a rational, quite reasonable basis for what others might call a "superstition" or "strange habit". In the case of cows, not is it only with the Story about Shiva and Parvati (and Nandi who is a bull and one of Shiva's sons), but they are profoundly symbolic of the relationship of Krishna to us and the idea of the interplay of forces that are good for us and that give us life and raise us to be better, and our willingness to participate with those forces to show our appreciation and to strengthen the expression of those forces in our lives. For more info on that, read Bagavad Gita, Gita Govinda, and read anything about Krishna (but stay away from ISKCON, a cult that is not Hindu by any standards and thus not a clear source of info on Krishna), on Hindunet.org, etc., then you will begin to intuit the rich symbology, poetry, and faith surrounding the "mystery" of the sacred cow.
A lot of people think it's crazy to stop traffic to let a cow or two pass, not use them for food in a country with many food problems, etc., but in India the strange things are the most beneficial--if only in terms of psychological nurturing--and thus of greater importance and meaning than a Western-style quick fix or easy traffic. India is not just another country--it is quite literally another planet, and when in Rome, enjoy the scenery as much as you can...
