Milk, gobar (cow dung) and gaumutra (cow urine)

It was natural that in a predominantly agricultural and pastoral country like India, cows were and to some extent still are, considered to be the real wealth of the people.

Ploughing the fields and providing transportation

Cow that gives birth to the bulls, bulls that are harnessed to plough the fields and to provide transportation.

Gives milk, yoghurt, butter, ghee, etc.

And then of course, there is a milk that is cultured to become yoghurt - which is churned to produce butter – which is converted into ghee or clarified butter that in India is used as cooking medium and also used for spiritual purposes.

Paneer and buttermilk

In addition to this, there is paneer or cottage cheese and buttermilk. Indians cannot forget khoya and mana – the other milk derivatives used in preparation of sweets. No wonder the cow is considered the backbone of rural society.

Cow’s milk and ghee as an elixir

Paeans of praise are reserved for cow’s milk and ghee which is considered to be an elixir. Dr. D. Bhandari, the former Director of Animal Husbandry in Rajasthan said, “You see it is the wonderful bacterial flora of the cow’s stomach that imparts this matchless quality to its milk ideally balanced for humans. Buffalo milk may be richer but it is the cow’s milk that sharpens intellect, gives swiftness of body, stability of emotions and a serene nature to the one who drinks it.”

Cow urine, or gaumutra

Also taken, but in measured quantities, is cow urine or gaumutra which has a unique place in Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine. Commenting on the chemistry of gaumutra, Dr. C.H.S. Shastry, Director of the National Institute of Ayurveda said, “Cow urine is used to produce a whole range of ayurvedic drugs, especially to treat skin diseases like eczema.”

Besides, gaumutra is a well known disinfectant.

Anti-septic property of cow dung

Anti-septic property is also the attribute of cow dung or gobar which is mixed with clay to form a plastering medium for mud huts. It is a proven fact that mud huts plastered with gobar keeps insects and reptiles away. This is the reason why people in the countryside still store grain in huge earthen pots plastered with gobar and gaumutra to keep it free from insect infestations.

Dried cakes that fuel kitchen fires

Gobar and gaumutra is also mixed with mud and straw to make dried cakes that fuel kitchen fires. Traditional wisdom says that in burning these cow dung cakes, the temperature never rises beyond a certain point, ensuring the nutrients in the food are not destroyed by overheating. Besides, the smoke of gobar clears the air of germs!

Bio-gas

Gobar has also been successfully used to produce bio-gas and generate electricity for consumer use.

Cow dung is resistant to solar radiation.

Scientific studies show that gobar has been found to be resistant to solar radiation.

Excellent manure and a natural pesticide

And of course, gobar mixed with gaumutra makes for excellent manure and a natural pesticide. Modern day ecologists are saying that as compared to chemical fertilizer which damages the land in the long run, gobar actually improves the health of the soil.

Even in dying…

Usefulness of the cow forms the subject matter of an essay every child in India gets to write in primary school. The children are told that even in dying, the cow gives us its hide which is prised for its softness. Besides the leather, the cow also gives its horns and bones and other parts of the body like intestines which have various uses.

3000 Goshalas, “Houses of the Cow”

At an individual level, Hindus routinely feed the cows – especially the wandering ones in the streets. But what is unique to India are several institutions that look after the cow, chief among them is the Goshala or “House of the Cow.” Conceptually different from the dairy, the goshalas, the gosadans, the panjara pols etc., maintain even the non-milking, old and sick cows along with those that are physically handicapped and need human care and attention for survival.

Mr. Ramavtar Aggarwal, Office Secretary of the All India Goshala Federation said that there are more than 3000 Goshalas in India which are charitable trusts managed by public funds. There are many other institutions that also look after the interests of the cow. Rajpurohit Seva Sansthan Goshala is one of them.
