Goshala - An integral part of our life
Goshala and Gau Seva are deeply rooted in Hindu mythology and the Upanishads. They reflect cows' spiritual, health, ecological, cultural, and ethical significance.
-
In Hindu mythology, the cow is considered the abode of 33 crore deities. It is seen as Kamadhenu, the divine bovine goddess, who grants all wishes and desires. - The Atharva Veda highlights the therapeutic benefits of cow products and their role in maintaining overall health and well-being.
- As suggested in the Vedas, the communal care of cows fosters cooperation, unity, and mutual respect within communities.
The origin of Kodi Swamigal's goshala
The calling of Siddha purushas to their devotees is as enigmatic as their presence. 2018 Kodi Swamigal, through para kaya pravesam, instructed Mrs Bama Balaji to offer a gho dhanam. Without knowing how it works and whom to contact and deliver it to, Kodi Thatha picked the person to whom this gho dhanam would go. He specifically chose a person from a particular village. At that time, we did not know this village would play an important role, and that is where the first goshala would be coming.
The key factor in choosing the person is ensuring that the gomadha is attended to with love and care. The recipient deeply longed to breed a cow, which she expressed to her mother, the housemaid at Thabovanam temple.
When the guru says not to explore the instruction's beginning and end, the aim is simply to follow it since they have already identified the cow. On her way to Pondicherry, Mrs Bama Balaji stopped at Nedumaram village, prayed to Kodi Thatha, and handed over the cow to the recipient, a native of that village.
The sequence of events is 3 years before the opening of the goshala at Nedumaram in Oct 2021 upon Kodi Swamigal's divine instructions.

The desire to have a goshala at Puravipalayam
When good things happen or are directed by the divine, one has to be a mere witness to the sequence of events unfolding in front of you. One of the trust's well-wishers who has seen the gho pooja during the Kadal poojai contacted us and shared an experience of visiting a goshala in Manavasi in southern Tamil Nadu.
While thinking about these events, Mrs. Bama Balaji wished to have a gomadha for Puravipalayam. She contacted her husband, who was going to Puravipalayam from Trichy, and instructed him to see if he could identify a gomadha at Manavasi. Upon reaching the town, by the blessings of Kodi Swamigal, a gomadha was determined. Mr Balaji immediately arranged the transportation to ensure it reached our Annadhanam centre at Puravipalayam.
Today at the Kodi Swamigal's goshala at Nedumaram Village, there are six cows, seven calves & 1 bull. Kodi Swamigal himself handpicked every member of the goshala. Upon divine instructions from Kodi Swamigal,
each gomadha is identified and procured with all the necessary things in place and ensured that it is being well-kept at our goshala with the divine blessings of Kodi Swamigal.
