An idea...

Many times on this forum we talk of cows and ahiṁsā (non-injury, some call this non-violence). Yet what do we do? In hopes we change a mind and advance the idea. I think we may have an opportunity to do more.
Perhaps we can do this, and we need the help of some of our HDF members in India. What if we as HDF members purchase a cow and give it to family to take care of. That is, a family that would treasure this cow and treat it appropriately. In return the cow gives milk ( and hence ghee) to the family.
We at HDF pay for the cow , send the money to India to one of our esteemed HDF members. They in turn select the cow and the family that the go ( cow ) will be given to.
Here is what we need:
- co-operation from our esteemed members in India
- financal support from our HDF members
- understanding the costs and dividing up the cost to those that are interested
- followup to see if this plan is worthy of merit and if it sould be repeated again.
I will be happy to make the first donation amount. I will need help though from my Indian counter-parts on how to carry this satvic action to a successful conclusion.
What are your thoughts and who wishes to help?
