silent sword

waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh

in any thing we do in life

when it comes to experience

we must humble ourselves to the other person

because we dont know

but those who have experienced know more than us

so whatever intentions this mahapurukh had its between him and god

his love for his guru

lets leave it at that

there's always something to point out in everything in life

it could be a beautiful day

but you have to work

this tastes good

but it would taste better with more salt(which i dont recommend)

dont let the mind wander

focus on guru ji

gold is maya

but so is paper

so is your body

what is the difference

everything you see is maya

the mind wanders away

from the ultimate purpose

of remembering waheguru

waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh

waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh

waheguru

i think we should do the best we can do

not for ourselves

but for guru ji

for the love of guru ji

why cant we go that extra mile

i think its a big deal

because its in most of the things we eat

cereals

sauces

soups

the list goes on

it says natural flavor

that means they can put anything in it

and we dont have to know about it

so i can only advise, not tell people what to do

but stick to basic things

because taste after all is just another form of lust

keep your diet basic

we live in a evil age

alot of these companies dont care

they just care about profit

they dont care about religions

whats sikhi to them

but this is who we are

we can all ignore it and say how much can you do

well i guess thats where you stop

but this life

is about our relationship with guru ji

god sits within us

watches us

guru ji watches over all

even this forum

always be aware

that guru ji is with you

every word you type

every word you read

guru ji is always there

your experience of life

every moment

is with god

i pray god watches over us

makes us into gursikhs

makes us strong so we can live in rehat

live in his will

i joined the forum yesterday

and its not for me

i just want to say sikhi is beautiful

all of you are beautiful

keep doing simran

seva

everything you can

but know guru ji is always there

everytime you say waheguru

say it to him

evertime you do seva

do it for him

tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi tuhi

thank you for replies

i just want to note that i read all labels and check everything i eat

so its not a problem for me

plus on the label they dont note down that it contains meat

they just write natural flavor

also i dont eat chips

i think you shouldn't eat chips

my diet consists of grains tofu fruits nuts

so i didnt post this for myself

i'm just concerned for other people

fine its okay for me to tell them hey dont do this

but if they dont listen

i should at least suggest to them how if you are going to do that

be careful on what your eating

haha i just wanted to point it out for the brothers who it may concern

sorry for my stupidity for thinking french onion flavored chips which i dont eat have beef broth in it

i'm just a stupid person

thank you

If you look in the ingredients in the foods you eat you will notice something, it says natural flavor has anyone ever thought what that might be.

I did some research and found out its a whole lot of things including MEAT

For example Sun Chips French Onion flavor contains meat

So i decided to write a email to a branch of the canadian government

this was the response i got

September 2, 2008

From: Craig Johnston, Consumer Products, Canadian Food Inspection Agency

Subject: Natural Flavours Containing Meat

Yes, it is true that "Flavour" or "Natural Flavour" as listed in various ingredients lists may contain meat and other animal based products. Section B.01.010(3)(b) of the Food and Drug Regulation allows for the optional class name "flavour" if one or more substances prepared for their flavouring properties and produced from animal or vegetable raw materials or from food constituents derived solely from animal or vegetable raw materials.

Section B.01.009(2) of the same regulation allows for flavour preparations to be exempt from component declarations.

The components that must be shown if the class name "flavour" is used are: salt, glutamic acid or its salts; hydrolysed plant protein; aspartame; potassium chloride, and any ingredient or component that performs a function in, or has any effect on, that food. Further, this list also includes the nine priority allergins as identified by Health Canada: Peanuts; tree nuts; soy; wheat; eggs; sulphites; dairy; fish and shellfish.

Unfortunately, as you suggest, you may have to contact individual companies that use "flavour" in their ingredients lists to ensure the provisions of your faith requiring no meat consumption are respected.

Any changes to the regulations would have to be done through regulatory change by the current Federal Government of Canada. I encourage you to contact your local Member of Parlament in this regard.

Craig Johnston

I started checking out veggie forums and found out alot of people who are not sikh and chose not to eat meat know about this. And they check the food we eat.

We are sikhs, its our religion, how can we trust what we are eating

there is some many older sikhs who dont know and when they go shopping

they might be bringing home stuff and feeding it to the kids and dont have a clue that its got meat in it

After finding this out i stopped eating out and i try now to check everything i eat.

but its hard because some companies dont want to disclose what they have inside

This is sikhi

i think some sikhi organization should take a stand on this

not just in one part of this world

but in any part where this is going on

fight for this

the community is always getting a bad light shined upon us

this is something we should fight for

its not just for sikhs

but everyone who doesnt eat meat

please try to post this in everyone forum

i know people might fight over the issue of meat

well if you believe its wrong to eat it

then this is for you

if you think its not part of sikhi

then thats what you believe

lets leave it at that

and for the sikhs that keep sarbloh bibek

i know your probably gonna be like well you should keep sarbloh bibek

brothers i personally think we should all be like that too

and for anyone hating on those that can keep it

think about the kirpa these brothers have to able to maintain that

nothing but respect

but alot of us are weak

we dont have that discipline yet

maybe god will hook it up for us one day

but lets not make this into a fight againts each other

but lets stand on something and fight for what is right

lets not take a blind eye and say well there's so much you can do

no

lets just do it

i'm pray to god

that some sikh organization stands up

do the right thing

this is something we need to express to our local members of parliament

one person cant walk in , well maybe they can with guru ji's kirpa

and change things

so someone please take up this cause

this message is for all the gursikhs who have the numbers and pull in our community to do something

god has put you in the posistion to act for things like this

please take this up and stand up

i can go to local guys

but its not about one city

this is about all of canada

i dont know that many people haha

lets make a change
