COW PUJAN
The Go Puja reminds us of the important role the cow, symbolic of the mother, plays in our lives. It’s an opportunity for us to
show our appreciation and reverence for her.

Here is a creature that takes so little from nature – just some quiet grazing in the fields – and is abundantly generous in return.
