Profile Information

Initiated / Legal name: Ian Seán Walsh (legal name)

Daily number of rounds of Hare Krishna mahamantra.: 16+

When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?: When I was 6 years old, in Boise Idaho, introduced to the movement by my mother's older brother Jaya Rama Das.

Name the nearest and most frequently Visited ISKCON temple/ centre and name few of the devotees whom you know.: New Biharvan Dham (Ki Jai!). Radhika Raman Das, Gopal Hari Das.

Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.: I am very focused on martial arts and survival training. I am a Ksatriya and my duty is to render service to, and to protect the devotees and our parents the cows and bulls. Training in my fighting skills has helped and continues to help bring me closer to Krishna, as he reciprocates with me in my dreams and through Prabhupada's Books, encouraging me to always remember him when fighting and thus become an instrument to protect the devotees. I enjoy reading, chanting, sharing my realizations, and practicing martial arts everyday.

I am very firmly against the castration of Bulls in our farms. I am aware that castration solves their rambunctious behavior and makes it easier to control them and have them plow the fields. I am also aware that it is a "bloodless" castration, in which the bull is given some anaesthesia, and the spermatic cord is crimped with a rope, and that it is almost painless with the exception of some sore walking for several days. However this is very clearly violating another living entities right to procreation, and is essentially birth control to some form or another, which everywhere I have read and heard is strongly spoken against in Srila Prabhupada's books. I have not once read or heard that the Bulls should be castrated to be forced to work. I would understand one's castrating the bulls, in a much less painful way, due to not finding anything specifically on it, the long history of castration, and the practicality of the situation, but I still strongly oppose any type of castration, neutering, spaying, or anything which involves taking away another beings reproductive right and trying to control them in this way. We call Bulls our fathers but then castrate them to make them work , this does not make even the slightest sense. There is nothing that infuriates me more than when I look in an ISCOWP magazine and read about advice on when to castrate the little baby bulls, usually before the age of 1, because they start to act to much like little baby bulls. While I have immense respect and appreciation towards all the Vaisnava devotees of the Lord and their wonderful service, I cannot stand to see this activity happening, and would like to know more about why it is going on. If the bulls absolutely will not plow unless they are castrated, then we can use horses, and if for some reason horses do not work, then the devotees should and will get on their hands and knees to plow themselves. There can be no compromise. I am willing to do anything to end this practice of castration, and I know many others with the same determination, that being said, there would be no shortage of people to work the fields if it came to that. I am still very young and have no qualifications next to those who have dedicated their lives to protecting the cows and spreading Krishna Consciousness, and of course I do not wish to offend any of the Lords devotees, but I cannot stand to see this going on, and I am humbly asking that anyone who knows more about this matter than myself would share their knowledge with me. Whether there are sastric reasons that I could very well be unaware of, or other important reasons which I have not put down, please let me know, so I can get a better understanding of the situation

Hare Krishna

What are your expectations from this community?: I have come here to read other devotees realizations in their Krishna Consciousness and to share my own.

Describe any specific service you would love to offer to Lord Krishna & His devotees?: On this website and off, I enjoy sharing realizations and speaking about our wonderful Lordships Sri Sri Radha and Krishna with other devotees. This is the only purpose of our existence, to speak about Radha and Krishna, to spread their Glories, and help others remember their Super Personal and loving relationship with them. In this way we will always be in ecstasy.

Yesterday, in our temple congregation, I had met our Bhakti Vignavinasa Narsinggah Swamy. I have always been fond of him because of his meekness. Sumhow I even knew when I first met him over a decade ago, he would be my initiating guru sumday in the future (hopefully!!). With tht in mind, I met him personally to open this subject of bull castration and requested that it be stopped. Maharaj humbly replied me that its been a practice for thousands of years and even in India.If it not been done, then it would be very very hard to get them on track. He repeatedly assured me its not a sin if u did that for the service of Krsna. Everybody has to go through some form of austere and the dear bulls are only serving Krsna in this way. Similar to the vegetations we kill where there is a soul in it, simply by offering it to Krsna it has now become a sinless act. Anyways I propose to you that some research be done on the castration of bulls in india. Honest to my heart where Jaganath resides, Im not at all satisfied with his answer though I have so much respect and love for Vignavinasa narsingah swamy, I still cant digest this truth. Please come up with some information on this if you can find. I would love to talk to him again about this.
Please bless me with your courage.
Jai Jaganath, Jai Govinda
