With depleting natural resources and consequent increase in prices of all essentials, scientists are looking for the alternative energy source in the wind, tides and so on with not much feasible solution.

The Importance of the Cow
Our West-influenced intellectuals sneer at the mention of the cow. The same intellectuals first sneered at yoga. Now it is a fashion to do pranayama at cocktail parties. The arguments in the West for cow slaughter are no more uncontested. They also sneered at our sanyasis as `godmen’. Now they flock to ashrams with their white friends ever since the Beatles. Who knows, they may soon have a cow in their backyards.

What’s there in the Cow for Me!!
One might wonder why cows are under discussion, as in the Vedic times cows held important position in society and every house would have at least few cows & bulls.

In the current society we miss the importance of cows may be because we have adopted modern means of sustenance.
