Srinivasa Sarma M. A. THE ESSENCE OF RELIGION The religious veneration accorded to the cow by the Hindu is unique in the history of the culture of the world. [...] Since every organ of the cow is the abode of some deity or other the cow becomea veritable temple ; and consequently the worship of the cow is considered to be equivalent to the worship of the gods. [...] A well-known verse in till Mahabharata ( AnuJasana-Parva ) says that all that kill eat and permit the slaughter of the cow rot in hell for as many years as there are hairs on the holy body of the cow so slain." A number of chapters are devoted in the same section of the great epic to the glorification of the worship of the cow and the extraordinary merits to be acquired by GODANA the free gift [...] Possession of cows entitled one to the membership of the Sabha or Assembly ( VIII 4. 9 ). The value and utility of the cow formed one of the topics of discussion in the Assembly.
