<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- February 3, 1976, Mayapura|Morning Walk -- February 3, 1976, Mayapura]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: Just like Caitanya Mahāprabhu went to the Kazi. His first question was that "What kind of religion you are following? You are killing your father and mother?" This was His beginning of the talk. "What kind of religion it is?" "How is that? I am killing my father, mother?" "Yes, cow is your mother and bull is your father. You are killing them. The bull is giving you grains by working in the field, and the mother is giving you milk, and you are killing them." This was his first question. So this is a civilization of killing father and mother. All over the world they are killing bulls and cows. In England there is law that you can maintain a cow but you cannot maintain a bull. It must be killed. Yes. When I was a guest in John Lennon's house the manager in charge, he was telling me. "You cannot keep bull. This is our law." I learned from him.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: Only for breeding purposes. Only for breeding. All the rest are killed.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: This is law in England? So you cannot keep even bull privately. Must be killed. This is the law.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What is the reason for that law?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Bull will not supply milk, so there is no use. It must be killed. Otherwise they are ferocious animal. You have made this law. The cows may be given some time to be killed, but the bulls should be killed immediately. This is their law.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: Nor do the farmers actually want to keep them anyway.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: They are useless animals.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Simply expensive. But here in India they know how to utilize bulls—for transportation, for plowing and so many other things.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Such a shortage of fuel, but there is no shortage of fuel with a bull.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, rather, it will supply you gobar, fuel. Whatever he will eat, he will give you fuel.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: In return.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: In return.</p>
