IMHO, you will touch meat every day of your life. You yourself are simply meat. A sikhs life is within gristi. We are not vaishnav. Are you going to refrain from learning the tabla as it's made from goat skin? Are you gona stop purchasing animal by-products like leather?

Living beings are everywhere and everything is living. Also congrats for when you accept amrit.

To disagree with the above, no you should not, because selling people meat (the product of murder of neglected animals) is not really proper Kirt Kamai. Could you imagine giving Dasvandh to the Panth of earnings made in this way?

When Shiri guru nanak dev ji pressed the roti earned from honest/dishonest earnings blood and milk poured out. Blood from out a roti?

Also how do you then justify beating a tabla brought from sangat money to the shabad of gurbani. Is the skin of goats used for our musical instruments any different to the goats meat? Do you think it's justified for those goats to be killed for the production of our musical instruments, aslong as us sikhs dont do the killing and the bad Karam goes on to the killer?

So, If SIkhs don't do the killing then its justified. How is that justified? Let someone else do the dirty work on your behalf and then reap the rewards.

To the original poster, if you need to work and pay the bills then this what you have to do. In our current climate, It very difficult to find jobs.

My grandfather was an Amritdhari and worked at our local butchers because that was the only job he could find at the time.

I agree with your statement about your grandfather, however I think you have misunderstood my point above about the justification of killing. I meant it as a question to the sikh I posted it to in exactly the way you just wrote back to me lol.

I apologise, I have misunderstood lol :stupidme: . Yeah, It's a very good question and no one has answered it.

No offence to anyone but can't believe some of the responses on here.

Of course its not OK to be handling meat like that once you're amritdhaari. Once you take amrit you become one of the fauj. Could you imagine Guroo Gobind Singh Sahib or a Sahibzada working in that kind of environment.

As for your grandfather, no offence, but that it awful. An amritdhaari working as a butcher. Dhan Vaheguroo.

If still unsure please take a hukamnama.

Ask the punj pyare. You are taking amrit from the punj pyare not from sikhsangat posters or any other sant, baba, missionary, or bhai sahib.
