Cow Donation: Supreme and Sacred Deed

Although there are several forms of donation, donating a cow is considered the most supreme and sacred of all donations one can do in a lifetime. According to ancient texts, donating a cow can liberate you and your ancestors from sins committed knowingly or unknowingly during one’s lifetime. As per sacred text Bhavishya Purana, ‘Gho Dhaana’ or cow donation is considered a pious act that can bestow all the benefits for a blessed life and also reserve a place for the giver in heaven after death.

Scriptural Significance of Cow Donation

As per the sacred text Garuda Purana, a cow can carry a soul beyond three kinds of hells and absolve all kinds of sins committed in the present and previous births. This sacred text also mentions that the departed soul has to cross a treacherous river called ‘Vaitharini,’ which stinks intolerably. The donation of a cow can help your ancestral souls cross the river easily by holding onto the tail of the Holy cow, which houses all Divine beings.

Blessings of Donating a Cow

A cow is regarded as the most sacred animal in the Hindu tradition and is believed to be an embodiment of all the Gods and Goddesses, and other Divine beings. It is not only important to donate a cow but also its calf and provide financial support to maintain the cow and calf through their lifetime.

According to sacred texts, the donation of a cow confers immense blessings of wealth, well-being, and prosperity upon you and your successors.
