Acharya Lalit Krishana Is Ensuring Stray Gaumatas In Vrindavan Don’t Go Hungry Ever Again, Join Him
Project
“The gaumata’s injuries were too serious for her to be saved. I watched her die before my eyes, and that’s something I can never forget. I see them in such terrible conditions, and just like Lord Krishna loved gaumatas, I believe that it is our duty to look after them. Even though there are so many gaushalas taking care of cows, there are still hundreds of them left on the road.” -Acharya Lalit Krishana, Founder, Astha Foundation
And For These Countless Stray Cows In Vrindavan, Lalit Krishana Is Their Saviour
“I started Astha Foundation 5 years ago to ensure that these stray cows that are left behind, don’t go hungry ever again. I feed over 400 cows every single day and try to cover areas where no one else goes. I’ve seen these innocent animals being abandoned due to their age, and sometimes even their illness. No one wants to take on that responsibility, so they spend the rest of their days on the streets, constantly searching for food.”
Acharya Lalit Krishana treats all the cows as his family and feeds them healthy fodder, roti, hay, chana dal and more. He takes care of all the expenses on his own and even gets on-spot medical treatment for the cows that need it. However, this is no easy feat to carry out. It takes immense time, energy and resources to carry out, and Lalit Krishana has now found himself struggling to continue.
He Dreams Of Making This World A Better Place For Gaumatas, Support Him
When you ask Acharya Lalit Karishana what his ultimate dream is, he doesn’t need to think for even a second - with Lord Krishna’s grace, he wants to open his own shelter for these cows one day. Lalit Karishana is working towards that dream slowly, but surely.
“But for now, I want to be able to reach out to as many cows on the streets of Vrindavan as possible. And for that, I need a vehicle so that I can carry large amounts of food and feed more cows. Right now, I sometimes take an auto or ask someone for help. But I can’t sustain this any longer.”
Acharya Lalit Krishana also needs your help to get fodder for all the cows he feeds. He is single-handedly giving these cows the life they deserve, with you by his side, he can do so much more.
