How in the world could it be all worth it? If there would have been a serious godlike effect from slaugthering that many cows for nothing but for the ritual then the world already would know how usefull it is. It's only some stupid humans that act out of what they were told to do from the past. Surely no help will come from this slaughtering. Otherwise we would know already that it is a mighty ritual.

This topic made me hungry.
Killing animals for spiritual rituals sounds so old ages. I just hope if they could only share this meat with poor hungry people.
It would better to make them happy.

What a shit truth,cow is sacred animal in Hinduism,It symbolise Mother,There is only one place in Nepal where living animal are used like offering,it is in Phurping,mostly chickens,Go Varananasi in India you will see how thay take care of cows,in Nepal you will even not found 250 cows

I agree. If you don't want animals to be killed, become vegetarian. No one needs to eat meat, they choose to do so because they enjoy it, thus making the pleasure of taste more important than the life of another creature. That's very sad.

[Joel_Jantsen]

Yeah this is true they slaughter not only cows but also dogs/deers/whatever they find in the jungle for this festival and for christ sake that is not a HINDU festival,its traditional nepalese festival to impress some godess I reckon

[ridery99]

It's funny how almost all western vegetarian liberals have hindu symbols in their homes 

[techboy2]

They'll all go to hell for murder.

Guess you found a way to live without eating vegetables? If not make yourself clear that you only survive because you still devour the life of other living creatures.

I sure hope they will sell the beef and hides to stimulate their almost nonexistent economy.   

[Greentree]

Very ridiculous for a ritual worths 250000 of cows lives.

[BitHappy24]

what a waste of cows, seems a bit much for a ritual

I have read a bit more about it and found that it is for the Goddess Ghadami. The meat is given to the believers. So at the end it is not so bad as a ritual, it's somewhat of a feeding the poor. And it seems it's not really 250k cows, i guess the whole country does not have so many cows at all, but 20k cows and 300k birds.
