Ahinsak - Gir Gau Ghee is prepared using the traditional "bilona" method. It is prepared from A2 milk obtained from Gir Gomata (Cow) using the ancient Indian practice of “dohan”. According to Shastra’s (ancient Indian treatises), dohan (derived from “do” meaning two) literally means the calf is allowed to feed to its satisfaction from two “anchals”, while the remaining two can be used to obtain milk for other living beings including humans. We never get rid of older non-lactating Gaumata's or Nandi's. Our Gomata's are reared unrestricted according to principles of nature, and left to grace on an organic field. We do not use modern artificial interventions to induce breeding or increase milk production. Gir Ahinsak Gau Ghee generally tends to be slightly yellow in color, the same color as “Ojas” (our essential energy that resides in the heart) that Maharshi Charaka described when he compared the color of Ojas with the color of Ghee. According to the Vedas, when Gaumatas are looked after well, they become "santusht" (satisfied) and 'prasann' (happy). Ghee of such Gaumatas is truly 'kalyankari' (beneficial) and 'mangalkari' (auspicious). According to Maharshi Charaka, "Ghee promotes ‘sattva’ (Truth or Purity of Being), memory, intelligence, beauty, agni, fertility, digestion, and ojas. It alleviates Vata dosha, Pitta dosha, the effect of poisoning, insanity, inauspiciousness, and fever.”
