Understanding Karma, Vikarma, and Akarma: The Importance of Cow Protection in Economic Development
Srila Prabhupada discusses the concepts of Karma, Vikarma, and Akarma, defining them as prescribed duties, forbidden criminal activities, and non-action, respectively. He critiques current societal structures, advocating for a more scientifically informed division of human society according to intelligence levels. Then, he emphasizes the importance of cow protection for economic development, critiquing societies that believe in cow killing for immediate satisfaction such as meat consumption. He asserts that milk, a transformation of the cow's blood, is an essential resource provided by the cow, thereby highlighting the immorality of killing these animals. The speaker uses these ideas to question and challenge the principles and ethics of modern civilization.
