Agastya... Is it raining heavily today...?
Oh.. If you shake your head and answer, the rain is still heavy today.. Agastya.. You yourself will save us from the rain disaster..
Such a conversation was heard at the Kavadi Goshala..
Ramchandra Bhat, a priest at the Kamadhenu Goshala in Kavadi village near Ammatthi, has a conversation with his beloved Nandi named Agastya every day. He asks Agastya the questions that need to be asked. Agastya has always given the right answers to such questions. That is why many people who come to the Goshala and ask questions from Agastya are getting the right answers.
It has been 5 years since the Kamadhenu Goshala in Kavadi started. The dream project of a cow school, which was realized through the rearing of a cow named Radhe, has now reached the rearing of 65 cows.
Ramachandra Bhatt, who strongly believes in the ancient saying that a house without cows is like a graveyard, has now become a huge project in the form of a cow school and trust management.
How did it start?
Ramachandra Bhatt was preparing for his housewarming by building a new house in a site in Kavadi near Ammatthi. At the same time, Raghaveshwara Sri came to Virajpet and gave a lecture, advising every house to have cows and saying that a house without cows is like a graveyard, which made a huge impression on him. Just as he had decided to rear cows in his new house, the Bhatts received 5 cows as a gift from the cowshed. Thus, the housewarming ceremony was held with 5 cows.
Sulya's brother Shivaram Bhatt said that he would give him a cow named Radhe, who had given birth to calves 7 times. Ramachandra Bhatt, who brought Radhe home without delay, started caring for her. Meanwhile, over time, many people, unable to keep their cows, started bringing them to Ramachandra Bhatt for his care. Unbeknownst to him, a cowshed atmosphere was created in his house. Finally, in August 2020, the cowshed was officially opened under the name Kamadhenu Goshala. Currently, 65 cows are being cared for here through the Kamadhenu Goshala Trust. 65 cows with various names such as Vishwamitra, Rama, Arjuna, Maharaja, Amrita, Balarama, Surabhi, etc. can be seen in the Kamadhenu Goshala. Ramachandra Bhatt is the managing trustee of Kamadhenu Goshala Trust, while Raghavendra Bhatt and K.K. Shyama are the trustees.
At least 4-5 acres of land is required for 65 cows in Kamadhenu Goshala. Now, apart from the shortage of land, there is also a shortage of necessary herd, hay and straw every day. At least Rs. 6,500 is spent per day to rear 65 cows. The challenges of the problem continue to arise. But I cannot hesitate in my commitment and vow to protect the mother cow. Ramachandra Bhatt proudly says that I protect the cows like children. His family, which starts protecting the cows at 5 am every day, devotes time to protecting the cows until 8 pm. There is so much work in protecting the cows that family members cannot go to meetings and functions. However, none of the members are raising the cows like their own children without any problems. His twin brother Raghavendra Bhat is helping in the cow service.
Today's generation has no information about cows. The answer that is often heard is that where does the milk for coffee and tea come from is from a packet. Therefore, the younger generation should visit cow shelters in large numbers and understand the importance of cows. Everyone should know that a cow is not an animal, but a life. It is impossible to imagine life without a cow, says Ramachandra Bhat.
Milk, curd, butter, and ghee are not the only cow products. Cow urine also has medicinal value. Cow dung also has importance. Cow donation is the best in yagnas. Cows symbolize the protection of religion. Therefore, we are all in a time of necessity when everyone must realize the need for cows, he said.
What is the need for a cow school?
Kamadhenu Goshala is in need of financial assistance. Similarly, 65 cows need hay, fresh and dry grass, every day. We need generous donors who can graze the cows on their land after leaving the paddy field. There is a need for grass supply from anywhere in the district. At present, the best gift for the residents of the cowshed is the donation of grass. The 65 cows of the Kamadhenu Goshala, which is currently managed on three-quarters of an acre of land, need at least 5 acres of spacious land for grazing and shelter. It is the demand of cow lovers that the government should also pay attention to these demands.
Special features of Kamadhenu Goshala
When the grass in the cowshed runs out, Ramachandra Bhatt folds his hands and prays with aggravation that somehow arrangements must be made to provide it. Strangely, by that evening, either someone brings grass and puts it in the cowshed or the grass is in our land. They give information over the phone that they will come and collect the cows.!
If they have finished the cowshed etc., if they tell Agastya in front of him, Agastya will listen with half-open eyes and make a humming sound.. That evening, some donors bring the cowshed, jaggery, and bananas and hand them over to the cow school!
Many cow lovers have experienced that if they tell Agastya about their problems, they will be solved. They write Y or N on two pieces of paper and hold them in front of Agastya.
