I thought (correct me if im wrong!) that Akaal Takht a few years ago sent out an order to all Gurdwaras to remove tables n chair from their langar halls. So how comes not all Gurdwaras have obeyed this? How comes they r getting away with it????

because akal takht doesn't enforce too many things, especially when ur talking about england or the u.s. still wrong.

Maybe if more people went into these Gurdwaras on a regular basis and made a stand against it, ie, sit on the floor to eat despite tables and chairs even if their is no carpet.

If our own people refuse to make a change coz it is classed as "inconvenient" then how can we expect the Gurdwaras to implement chance as their main priority is to pull in the crowd and prehaps compete against the rest of them in the local area.

Apologies if anyone is offended my the post!

Personally, i prefer to sit on the floor to eat. I find it so much more comfortable then a table!!!

I think all Gurdwaras implemented the change when the hukham came, i remember it happening and the lack of sangat coz of it!!! But then all of a sudden they were coming back in..

Maybe a more pressing issue also is the wearing of shoes in the langar hall?? Not keeping your head covered too??

For once, if akaal takht sahib has issued a hukham, lets actually work on that!! And implement it as much as possible as opposed to worrying about how many other things are going on in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes the Akal Takht hukumnama are never enforced. You can do what you want and they will not take action. Tohra went to the nirankhari bhavan and Ranjit Singh lt him off. Badal and his wife get hawan performed and visit dere of anti Sikh godmen and they get away with it. Strict action need to be taken to liberate the Akal Takht form the clutches of the SGPC.

I was at Soho Road Gurdwara to attend a wedding several weeks ago. After the wedding guests had eat their samosa and barfi and gone into the durbar hall the langar hall was not cleared of tables and people continued to eat on them.

What surprised me even more was the attitude of the sevadaar there. They said women/girls could not put out the samosa etc (even though they were fresh from the shop and not been subject to Bhog). Great advert fro equality. Every "savadaar" who turned up would say do like this not like that, only for another sevadaar to come along a few minutes later to contradict what the earlier "sevadaar" had said. I think it became a case of too many chiefs trying to dominate people. The "sevadaar" rather than doing seva were trying to put royb on people and doing toka takai (nitpicking).
