By Ekendra dasSometimes Krishna lets it look like the demons (psychopaths) have the advantage. This is just so its all the more relishable when the devotee sinks the boot - and, of course, Krishna likes to give all credit to the devotee and vice-versa.
By Ekendra dasSpecifically the protection of cows is not solely driven by economic consideration but is performed as a central religious theme that permeates all four social orders. Protection of cows is, therefore, an indisposable aspect of varnasrama life. To try to implement a concept of varnasrama without this essential aspect is, again, surreal.
By Ekendra dasA nice analogy to illustrate this point is the story of a world traveler who is planning his journey while looking at a globe of the Earth planet. If, for instance, he desired to travel from Calcutta to Delhi he could choose to travel in many different directions. He could map out a route from Calcutta eastward that traversed the globe, crossed many oceans and deserts, and finally arrived in Delhi after several months of circumambulating the planet.
