Raghaveshwara Swamiji’s Mangala Gau Yatra arrives to Udupi district

Udupi: The Mangala Gau Yatra to create awareness about the importance of conserving and promoting cows, after travelling seven states arrived in Udupi here on January 20.

The Yatra was welcomed at Jodukatte and taken in a procession around the city. The procession passed through Big Bazar, Old Taluk Office, Court Road, Diana Circle, KM Marg, Triveni Circle, Service Bus-stand, City Bus-stand and culminated at the Rajangana.

 

A stage function was held at the Rajangana, Suprasad Shetty welcomed the gathering. Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji of Paryaya Pejawar Math inaugurated the programme.

Addressing the gathering Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji said that the killing of the cows can be called as murder of Humanity. Conservation of the cow is not the job of a single person. Raghaveshwara Swamiji who has initiated this is not a mere human but is a great energy. We have to cultivate such small habits and thereby involve ourselves in the greater cause of saving cows, he added.

Sri Sri Raghaveshwara Bharati Mahaswamiji in his message said that the present government is silent in the issue of cow slaughtering. Society is responsible for the death of cows. Indians are forgetting the cow, cows are our diamonds. Nothing can be compared with the milk of the cow, today we are losing the opportunity to let cows live with us. Stopping the slaughter of cows is the real development of the nation, he added.

Welcome committee president A G Kodgi presided over the function. Sri Sugunendra Thirta Swamiji of Puttige Math, Sri Vishwaprasanna Theertha Swamiji of Pejwar Math, Sri Vidyavallabha Thirta Swamiji of Kaniyoor Math, Sri Rajashekarananda Swamiji of Vajradehi Math Gurupura, Sri Vinayakanandaji Maharaj of Bailoor Sri Ramakrishna Math Bailoor, Sri Ramachandra Swamiji of Kasi Kapila Math, Dr Kalladka Prabhkar Bhat and others were present.

The valedictory ceremony of the Mangala Gau Yatra will be held at 29 at Bangra Kulur near Mangaluru.
