No project is too large or too small.<\/p>\n<p>H.G.Dhananjaya prabhu said, about Bhaktivedanta manor that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlot of devotees don\u2019t know this but actually Prabhupada did name the land New Gokula, and that\u2019s why he named the Deities\u2019 Radha-Gokulananda. And he wanted the main activity there to be cow protection, and he wanted 150 cows kept on the property. And i said \u201cwell that\u2019s not very practical because of the 17 acres of land there is only 6 which is pasture land and you need at least one acre per cow.&#8221; And he said &#8220;So, you buy another 150 acres of land, what is the difficulty? This is the most important to duty to look after the cows and explain the importance of cow protection.<br \/>\nBesides showing them how the cow is protected we should also be producing milk for sale and butter and yogurt and also ghee. If we make our own ghee then so many people will want to purchase the ghee, because there is nothing like home made ghee.&#8221; And he said that, &#8220;The other activities that devotees should be doing there are spinning and weaving and various different handy crafts.&#8221; This is what he wanted to happen there.<\/p>\n<p>Hari Bol.
