About one year ago, we had established an organization for cow protection in Indonesia. The name of that organization was Indonesia Peduli Surabhi Network (IPSN). The organization made big influence to devotees in Indonesia. The devotees became closer to cow protection activities. There are 30 goshalas around Indonesia with 60 cows. We always offer Go_puja every purnima. IPSN contacted the devotees to do Go-Puja together every purnima. We also set up IPSN booth at Sri Jagannatha Ratha Yatra Festival around Indonesia.
We had evaluated all of the things of the organization. After that, we decided to change the name of the organization. We agreed to call our organization, GAU RAKSYA IDONESIA (GAURI). Gau means cow. Raksya means protection. Gau Raksya Indonesia means cow protection in Indonesia. So, we can call GAURI for the organization. We also made a few changes for the structure of the organization. We had redesigned logo of it also. We have a plan to register the organization to Government of Indonesia for organization legality.
GAURI has some new programs. We are preparing for our program, Om Sri Surabhi Campaign at Bhakti Festival in Bali. The program will be conducted on July 10, 2016. That will be a special day, because we will give a class about cow protection and the glories of the cow to public. We will set up a booth and sell our cow products. GAURI has some cow products, like books about cow, Go-Ark, Antiseptic, Go-Bar Soap, Go-Bar Toothpaste, Om Sri Surabhi Campaign t-shirt, accessories of the campaign, etc.
