is it true that some gudwara make meat?


Recommended Posts

to what i have heard, its a like a normal gurdwara but they also have meat in langar.

apparently my friend said that he went to southampton gurdwara because him and his dad were booked to do kirtan. when outsiders like kirtanis and raagis come then they make vegetarian langar. but udhaa they have bacon and stuff for breakfast (i assume instead of parotey).

i have not seen this with my own eyes - just going by what i have heard from others.

southampton Gurdwara Tegh Bhadar Sahib St. Marks Rd it happens they eat it with no shame i was disgusted i asked for a veggie breakfast and they gave me a just a plate of beans? For a meat eater they had bacon, sausages, eggs & blackpudding

So what was your problem ? Jealous the meat eaters had more variety ? or were the beans not good enough for you in Guru Da Langar ? Did you want Linda Mcartney Sausages with the beans ?

no they have egg in them, my problem is why not have a veggie breakfast instead of meat? i can tell your a meat eater good luck 2u

Well they never used to have egg in them and if they do I am sure it is unfertilised egg.

You had a veggie breakfast i.e. the beans. What you want ..... bits of paneer in the beans so you can pretend they are them beans with little sausages in them ?

I have not eat meat for more than a decade so go do one.

As long as it's Jhatka I don't have a problem with it.

Although saying that if there using Happy Shopper eggs and tesco value pork sausages (with the only pork content being artificial pork flavourings) then I would have a problem with it.

The Sainsbury's organic woodland eggs and duchy bacon is particularly nice and highly recommended.

Wahehguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Wahehguru Ji Ki Fateh

I am a resident in Southampton and am also a Bhatra Sikh (I don't understand why I should have to indicate that I'm a Bhatra Sikh, just as some pride themselves on differentiating themselves as Jatt Sikhs.. No castse, remember) I am a Sikh full stop.

The Bhatra Gurdwara in Southampton has never served meat as langar!! Meat has been present in the langar hall on occasssions where there is are weddings. This is now however a thing of the past as there was strong opposition against this by the Gurdwara members. When the Gurudwara reshuffled its commitee, including its President and Secretary, all meat is no prohibited from the Gurdwara.

It should never have happened, but will now never happen again.

    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
