seeing through the eyes of scriptures

Here in the US the goverment is cracking down on raw milk:
Though I have never found it in sastra I have often heard that Krsna drank milk from the utter of cows in His Kaumara age.
Police in LA , came in with guns and forced places that sells raw unpasteurized organic milk to give it to them and poured it all in the drain.They should instead stop eating meat and close all meat factories at the end of a gun if they had too.
Drinking milk is good for you, eating meat is a sin.
they are worried that someone gets sick from drinking unpasteurized milk but milk in US is full of hormones and fish oil, how demoniac
and totally ignorant
The meat and dairy organizations is US, does not have the welfare of the animals or humans at at all in consideration it is all simply business nothing else, and who wants milk with fish oil in it?D3 shame on them and shame on the FDA for not understanding these things.
I had a discussion with Advaita Prabhu from Holland:

the question is raw milk a health risk? Without boiling it , it is properly not a good idea to drink..Krsna also drank raw milk some say sometimes even from the utters of a cow, that I have not seen in sastra,anyone has such a quote?
but devotees never drink cold milk
 
havent seen it
 
hmmm
yes I can not recall
but if Krsna did so being naughty in His Kaumara age would not surprise me
hahahahah
 
not only that
tejiyasam na dosaya vahneh sarvabhujo yatha
the fire can digest anything
 
yes
 
but we cannot
 
especially Krsna
 
he swallowed kaliya poison
and the forest fire
 
and He takes the cows as mother
and Putanas poison milk
 
yes right
 
He swallow the whole universe
and exhales it
hahahaha
at will
universes
I will look for any quotes where Krsna drank eaw milk or straight from the utter of a cow
in US the government is stopping the sell of raw milk, how about Holland can you buy Raw milk?
 
no idea
I just go to low budget supermarkets
save money to go to India
buy all the cheapest stuff
never buy milk
only soy milk
milk gives too much mucus
 
because it is not organic but with hormones
moderate raw organic milk is good to offer to Krsna and is healthy
 
ok
 
many devotees are like you
check the picture?
 
yes amazing
but no reference there
 
I thought I had heard about it before but can not remember seeing it in sastra
yes that is what is needed
also Radha Govinda I was told when hidden on a hill some cows poured their milk into a hole in the ground to give milk to Radha Govindaji
so The Divine couple must have been drinking it
 
good point
 
same has happened to many Deities
also to Varahanarasimha in South India, the Deity of Prahalada Maharaja from Satya yuga
This article by Mahanidhi Swami is very important to understand the importance of raw organic milk

 Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 10.4.41

viprā gāvaś ca vedāś ca

tapaḥ satyaḿ damaḥ śamaḥ

śraddhā dayā titikṣā ca

kratavaś ca hares tanūḥ

SYNONYMS

viprāḥ — the brāhmaṇas; gāvaḥ ca — and the cows; vedāḥ ca — and the Vedic knowledge; tapaḥ — austerity; satyam — truthfulness; damaḥ — control of the senses; śamaḥ — control of the mind; śraddhā — faith; dayā — mercy; titikṣā — tolerance; ca — also; kratavaḥ ca — as well as sacrifices; hareḥ tanūḥ — arethe different parts of the body of Lord Viṣṇu.

TRANSLATION

The brāhmaṇas, the cows, Vedic knowledge, austerity, truthfulness, control of the mind and senses, faith, mercy, tolerance and sacrifice are the different parts of the body of Lord Viṣṇu, and they are the paraphernalia for a godly civilization.

 

PURPORT

When we offer our obeisances to the Personality of Godhead, we say:
namo brahmaṇya-devāya
go-brāhmaṇa-hitāya ca
jagad-dhitāya kṛṣṇāya
govindāya namo namaḥ
When Kṛṣṇa comes to establish real perfection in the social order, He personally gives protection to the cows and the brāhmaṇas (go-brāhmaṇa-hitāya ca). This is His first interest because without protection of the brāhmaṇas and the cows, there can be no human civilization and no question of happy, peaceful life. Asuras, therefore, are always interested in killing the brāhmaṇas and cows. Especially in this age, Kali-yuga, cows are being killed all over the world, and as soon as there is a movement to establish brahminical civilization, people in general rebel. Thus they regard the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement as a form of "brainwashing." How can such envious persons be happy in their godless civilization? The Supreme Personality of Godhead punishes them by keeping them in darkness, birth after birth, and pushing them lower and lower into wretched conditions of hellish life. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has started a brahminical civilization, but especially when it is introduced in the Western countries, the asuras try to impede it in many ways. Nonetheless, we must push forward this movement tolerantly for the benefit of human society.

FDA ,is the Food and Drug administration 
Actually there concern is not un based
but the problem is still there you can not get raw milk that was just pasteurized like in the rest of the world, you have to get it through dairies that add D3 fish oil, and that leaves some temples no option but to buy raw  milk...
