Gaushala
Gaushala means the abode for the cows and its progeny as calves and oxen. Our Gaushala at Krishnashray is home for more than hundred of cows. We provide them with hay, flour, fresh grass, clean water, medical attention and a place, where they can recuperate from injuries and stay peacefully.

Gaushala is the Concept of Cow Protection and Habitat Conservation. In Sanskrit the word 'Gaushala' literally means cow protection or the place where cows are sheltered. Other Sanskrit names for the cow are Go-mata (mother cow), Kamadhenu (wish fulfilling), and Aghnya (never to be killed).
Gaushala (shelter home) was established at Mehlav (Kheda, Gujarat) by the founder Shri Umeshbhai Shastri. Initially the Gaushala was started with 30 cows on 5 bigha land. Now we have around 225 cows in Gaushala. Maintaining what we have is depends mostly on hard work and proper management. Our investments have been by personal sacrifice and a help from our friends, Vaishnav Samaj,symphathisers and cow protectors who, although unable to personally raise and protect cows, see the necessity for cow protection and are willing to lend a helping hand.
Facilities we have:
• Gaushala is running on 1.61 Hectare land.
• Tin shed covered with weed and hay to protect more than 225 cows and calves.
• We have three cemented water container for drinking water facility to the rescued animals.
• We have a tractor, a tanker on hire basis to carry water and a trolley to carry fodder for cows; purchased with the support of individual donors.
