Animal Farm :)

So. I saw this question about testing on animals in the Gupt section and it got me thinking. Why do we even drink milk? If you know first hand about the dairy industry, then you know how badly they treat animals and then ship them off to slaughter. So it's like we're just using them up until they are turned to meat. So then....is it right to drink milk? Unless we milk em ourselves? ANNDDDDDD... also, my mom is amritdhari, she has a fur coat. Is that wrong? In my eyes its wrong, but she tells me how it's already dead so its fine(which it probably wasn't). I think she is just trying to justify her actions, but even so, would it be right? Wouldn't that just be supporting the meat industry and killing animals in the end?

Both is hurting the animal.

Isn't that why we don't eat meat.

meat eating is a totally separate topic.. and has been discussed number of times on this board whether sikhs shud eat meat or not..

if u want to discuss the same thing over again please refer to some of the old discussions and you will get your answers and then decide for yourself..

bhul chuk maaf..

Technically, if we dont want to hurt anything, we should be eating air... it's scientifically proven that plants have intelligence to.

i think getting into useless debates on meat is pointless, let ppl decide that!

BTW, leather is bad....

Except I'm talking about something totally different. I'm not saying eating meat should be right. But I'm also saying using other animal products isnt right either. Especially when this type of animal abuse is easily avoided.

Eating meat is like taxing ur body. Same goes with any heavy meal(veg or non-veg). Guru ji told us to have light meal beacuse that way ur body doesn't have to do much and u can easily meditate on almighty.

try simple meal like dal roti for few days and u can easily see the difference. Your body will thank you and u will be happy too.

    • 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!!
