Why Cow Donation is the Most Sacred Act in Sanatan Dharma?
In Sanatan Dharma, Cow Donation (Gau Daan) is considered the holiest and most rewarding charity. Shri Mataji Gaushala keeps this tradition alive by offering shelter and care to helpless cows that others refuse to take. Donating here is more than a ritual—it's a divine act that connects your soul with selfless service and dharma.
