Vyapaka das: After many years of observing goshallas throughout India, it became evident there existed a wide gulf in ways to protect cows. Subsequently, the need for standardization of cow protection came into clear focus. This led to the creation of the Ahimsa Foundation for Cattle Protection (AFFCAP).
AFFCAP is an independent, third party, non-profit organization which certifies goshallas to a basic standard of care and protection. It does so by registering and inspecting goshallas, while keeping records of every animal for life. This undertaking ensures that:
“No animal is being made available, knowingly or unknowingly, for Slaughter”. It is not only those who slaughter the animals who are at fault, but also those who make them available for slaughter.
As revealed in the Manu Samhita.
“…He who gives permission, he who kills the animal, he who sells the slaughtered animal, he who cooks the animal, he who administers the distribution of the flesh, and at last he who eats the flesh are all murderers and all of them are punishable under the law of karma.”
