About
Gau Puja at ISKCON Nellore is a sacred ritual expressing love and gratitude to Gau Mata (the cow). Performed at the Sri Krishna-Balaram Goshala, devotees offer prayers, food, and care to cows in a peaceful environment. The puja brings peace, prosperity, and spiritual growth, removes planetary doshas, and invokes the blessings of Lord Krishna and Goddess Lakshmi. It also promotes compassion, cow protection (Go Raksha), and harmony with nature, spreading divine joy and positivity.
At ISKCON Nellore, Gau Seva Puja begins with Sankalpam (devotional vow) and Achamanam (purification). The cow is bathed with water or Panchamrit, adorned with haldi, kumkum, flowers, and cloth, and worshipped with Go Suktam mantras, diya, and dhoop. Devotees offer her favorite foods like grass, bananas, and jaggery, perform pradakshina, and offer aarti. Touching the cow’s feet for blessings symbolizes humility and devotion. This puja promotes cow protection, dharmic living, and spiritual purity.
