You should watch some of the videos on Net and documentaries which show how cruelly/badly treated these farmed animal are. 

Yeah I have seen ones about chickens , being pumped with all types of things and chick's getting killed.

I was veggie for about 20yrs (ate all the soy stuff etc). I've gone back to meat occasionally now and lay off the soya/mock meats. I only eat Organic and/or Jhatka though. The turning point for me was watching some videos/podcasts/speaking to folks on the topic.  Its not about taste either (afterall folks complain about Daal if its not cooked to your particular taste).

If you look at how mock/soya gunk is made, the ingredients etc... its basically hyper-processed junk. In the old days the mock meat ingredients were used as cheap 'fillers' in cheap meat burgers etc. Thats why they are pushing it a lot now, it has high profit margins when sold as 'mock meat'/meat alternatives (check out the cost per 100g of fake meat to real meat in the shops).

Is it more eco? Not really, look into the effect of a soy field on the environment, compared to a field with cows/goats etc in it. One will be a very diverse ecosystem.. the other (soy field) will be pretty dead (not biodivese), the soil will be rubbish etc. Plus everytime it is ploughed or harvested, thousands/maybe millions of creatures are killed per acre (above and below ground). As opposed to a few cows, pigs, chickens, goats in a field.

Your body is the result of millions of years of evolution...if you give it an organic steak or a say hyper processed Linda McCartney Sausage, which one will it recognise/understand what to do with it (hence your bloating with soy stuff etc)

Hmmm very interesting,  still have not tried meat substitute,  and it wouldn't be a daily thing even if I did. 

My mum used to make soya chunks in a thuri,  which was pretty nice. But I have been a meat eater all my life, was watching this program about undigested meat that is just stuck in your body. So thought I'd give up on the meat or try at least.

I have done one day yay lol I find a lot of vegetarian dishes nice, just wondering what these meat substitute are like. Anyone tried them , or are they a waste of time or ermmm taste.

Sikhs were once 65 - 70% of the population, now we're less than 60%.

I bet the Muslim population has gone up, they are Gremlins once it gets a bit wet they don't stop popping out.

Anyone here familiar with Sade Sati aka 7 1/2 years bad luck phenomena? I am aware according to Gurmat we should not concern ourselves with Astrology and the planets.

Thing is the more I study this subject, I realize I have been strongly affected by it and experience all negative symptoms of Shani in my life since they day I'm born is heavily ruled by Saturn.

Would like to hear members input on this subject and experiences if any.

Are really being affected or is the mind playing tricks? Your focus is on negative thoughts, you are probably more affected by the moon as your body is is made 75% or so (cant remember off the top of my head) of water.

Where and at what age ?

Pind school ?

Miri Piri Academy ?

India can be difficult to get used to. Also, the summers are very harsh and the worst of the winters are not easy either

I'm not sure at where, age 5-8 ? Apparently its easier to absorb information at a younger age. 

Yes India can be harsh, I am just spit balling atm lol

People in Punjab have learned more about Sikhi in Canada than in India. I know there were some people who were full-blown Mona back in Punjab who became Amritdhari Singh/Kaur in the West. 

Who are these people? I go to Punjab every 5 years ish and everyone,  that I meet know about Sikhi. Maybe I'm just really ignorant to it.

I think we should send our children for year to be educated in Punjab, so they understand  Sikhi culture, grow a bond with their homeland,  learn to read/write Gurmukhi.  

I have noticed a few of these parchar on YouTube spent a lot of years back home. Jagraj Singh from basics of Sikhi  and Satpal Singh both are two that come to mind.

I know Muslims used to do this back in the day, dont know about now.

Seen a few posts about the youth of today, and this popped in my head.

do you guys eat pork? i generally avoid it because its unhealthy and supposedly flesh is close to human flesh but tht being said wouldn't mind trying wild boar 

If you eat animal meat, it doesn't matter which one you eat, the Hindu doesn't eat cow because of their milk? But will eat goat, Muslim will not eat pig, but will eat chicken who eat crap and are injected with all kinds of stuff to make them bigger and don't get me started on the chicken coop lol

The point is you shouldn't eat meat full stop, or if you do don't bicker on what type.
