This isn't, recently gurdwaras seem to be forgetting why they were created. Guru Nanak Dev Ji created the Langar as somewhere the hungry and homeless may eat and rest. Despite this, when someone homeless enters a gurdwara people often feel put off like that person shouldn't be here. This is especially bad because the fact gurdwaras have 4 doors is that anybody from any corner of the world may enter. Even the 5Ks are getting affected. A while ago I went to buy a new Kara because my current one was getting tight. When I went to buy one inside the gurdwara, I saw decorated bracelets with a small gap at the bottom of the wrist. When Guru Gobind Singh Ji created the Kara he told us that they should be plain and made of steel- the never ending corcle represents the eternal nature of both God and faith in God. The increasing rarity of Karas fitting the above is becoming distressingly harder to find as well as the increased discrimination against non-sikhs. I hope the Gurdwaras remember how our gurus preached equality and fix this as soon as possible.
