Educational Q&A
A truly dharmic community creates safety: in a sage-protected hermitage even a vulnerable creature like a cow can live and move about without fear, reflecting non-violence and responsible guardianship.
The narrator describes a cow residing in an ascetics’ forest, a sacred and pleasant place frequented by sages, where she freely wanders and grazes without fear.
