I dont eat meat becuase i think it is wrong to kill an animal and eat its flesh, and expecially in these times where they breed animals just to eat.

My question is if I want to get a dog, can i feed it meat?

If I can then I am supporting meat right?

If I cant then what about the other animals, like lions and tigers. Should we stop them or leave them? Can those animals even survive without meat? Where do the meat eating animals stand in all this??

Can i be healty without eating meat and any kind of vitamin or supplement.

If not then isn't man suppose to eat meat?

:) @

I know I sound very confused because I dont eat meat, but still argue points for the meat-eaters, but this is what people ask.

Waheguroo jee ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo jee kee Fateh!

Waheguroo made dogs carnivores, so thats who they are!

For us, we were given the blessing of choice: we can eat whatever we want, and so the best choice for us (and the choice promoted by Sikhism) is vegitarianism.

This very same topic has been discussed on Tapoban (I think it was the same poster).

Some copy and pasting from the Tapoban posts.

>>The Akal Takht Jathedar Sandhu Singh Bhaura issued a hukumnama dated February 15th 1980 that Gursikhs can eat meat as long as it is jhatka meat and that eating meat does not go against the code of conduct, Kurehit, of the Sikhs. Thus a Sikh cannot be excommunicated for eating meat.

So there is a Hukumnama which makes the issue quite clear as far as Sikhs go.

Maybe we need to contact the Akal Takht and see what the situation is with regards to animals kept by Sikhs i.e. does the ban on Halal apply to animals as well. Of cause we could just use our common sense else next we will have someone posting a thread about their German Shepard dog mating with next door neighbours Japanese Akita etc etc and if this is ok or wrong.

The veggie lobby are going to tell you dogs are omnivores so can survive on veggie food. Then there is the carnivore lobby who will say give it meat.

I have seen dog sin the wild and they certainly do not eat vegetables. They hunt prey and eat meat as such I would back the carnivore lobby.

re-read his post again veer, you just said Sikhism does not promote the choice of being a vegitarian.

and NO this does not need to be locked. If this is discussed in a Civil, Mature manner there is no need to lock this topic. Just because its 'controversial' does not mean it does not need to be discussed. We broaden our level of knowledge because we DO discuss such topics.

Mods should MODERATE such topic and delete the unnecessary posts (attacks, abusive language etc.)

    • Definitely the Guru Sahibs would be a heavier Scriptures to handle. Dasam Granth is more towards Bir Rass, Guru Gobind Singh showed his Greatness (of course, they would never say this) by separating his own Baania.  And the BIGGEST test of all?? Do we try and read Dasam Granth, Understand n show respect like we do to SGGS? Or... Do we QUESTION it? Guru Gobind Singh Ji is testing us. 
    • My wife will be going for an MRI scan next week but her Kara won’t physically come off.  Is there any way the mri scan can be done with the Kara still on?  The alternative is we will have to try to saw it off before the scan.  
    • was researching this and came back to this thread. Also found an older thread:    
    • Net pay after taxes. If you don't agree, think about this: If you were a trader and started off in China with silk that cost 100 rupees and came to India, and you had to pay total 800 rupees taxes at every small kingdom along the way, and then sold your goods for 1000 rupees, you'd have 100 rupees left, right? If your daswandh is on the gross, that's 100 rupees, meaning you have nothing left. Obviously, you owe only 10% of 100, not 10% of 1000. No, it's 10% before bills and other expenses. These expenses are not your expenses to earn money. They are consumption. If you are a business owner, you take out all expenses, including rent, shop electricity, cost of goods sold, advertising, and government taxes. Whatever is left is your profit and you owe 10% of that.  If you are an employee, you are also entitled to deduct the cost of earning money. That would be government taxes. Everything else is consumption.    
    • No, bro, it's simply not true that no one talks about Simran. Where did you hear that? Swingdon? The entire Sikh world talks about doing Simran, whether it's Maskeen ji, Giani Pinderpal Singh, Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi, or Sants. So what are you talking about? Agreed. Agreed. Well, if every bani were exactly the same, then why would Guru ji even write anything after writing Japji Sahib? We should all enjoy all the banis. No, Gurbani tells you to do Simran, but it's not just "the manual". Gurbani itself also has cleansing powers. I'm not saying not to do Simran. Do it. But Gurbani is not merely "the manual". Reading and singing Gurbani is spiritually helpful: ਪ੍ਰਭ ਬਾਣੀ ਸਬਦੁ ਸੁਭਾਖਿਆ ॥  ਗਾਵਹੁ ਸੁਣਹੁ ਪੜਹੁ ਨਿਤ ਭਾਈ ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੈ ਤੂ ਰਾਖਿਆ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ The Lord's Bani and the words are the best utterances. Ever sing hear and recite them, O brother and the Perfect Guru shall save thee. Pause. p611 Here Guru ji shows the importance of both Bani and Naam: ਆਇਓ ਸੁਨਨ ਪੜਨ ਕਉ ਬਾਣੀ ॥ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਿਸਾਰਿ ਲਗਹਿ ਅਨ ਲਾਲਚਿ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਜਨਮੁ ਪਰਾਣੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ The mortal has come to hear and utter Bani. Forgetting the Name thou attached thyself to other desires. Vain is thy life, O mortal. Pause. p1219 Are there any house manuals that say to read and sing the house manual?
