“When Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa incarnated Himself at Vṛndāvana, He took pleasure in becoming a beloved son of such a vaiśya family.

Śrīla Prabhupāda (Light of the Bhāgavata, Text 9)

3. One should not proceed through the midst of cows.

4. When cows are grazing or lying down, one should not disturb them in any way.
