lol...forget that....

Dhan Guru Nanak Dev Ji himself went and gave darshan and blessings to Kauda Rakhsh a man who ATE PEOPLE!!!! Never mind in the form (as it happened he was trying to eat Bhai Mardana at the time..or so I heard) he still did it. B)

Isn't it wrong of Sikhs to idol worship? A picture is after all only a picture. It is not the Guru.

Thank Vaheguru Guru Nanak Dev Ji was/is so compassionate. We seem to have fogotten that quality.

Great post ^_^^_^^_^^_^

i was waiting if someone write this....

i wonder which one will be more worse...

1) A butcher who still try to earn honest living though he has pic of guru nanak there...

2) A soldier with pic of guru nanak in his wallet..killing another soldier (of other country)

3) A amritdhari sikh, who cheats, always lie, has no nimarta

Butcher is butcher by his profession....and ofcourse Jassika ji in her last post made a valid doubt

Its easy to c, someone doing crime in front of cop, aaaaaaaaw that means...our cop is pic of guru nanak blush.gif

i wonder again, what u mean.....either to dive in ocean without completing 12 grades..out of them one is no idol worship...

isnt it?

vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw!

vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!

I agree very much with this post, but I do have one concern.

For example, if instead of meat, this person was selling alchohol. The same arguments could be made, but if this person is a sikh, and thus shuns alchohol because it is bad and wrong, then is it ok for that Sikh to take part in making other people drunk as well? Meat is similar: if this person believes that eating meat is wrong but still sells it to others so that they eat it too, does this violate his moral duty as a Sikh?

just wondering.

Did anyone try to talk to the butcher about it ?

Did anyone try telling him not to do so?

If not then whats the point in saying anything?

Remember Bhagat Sadna was a butcher too! Did that make him unfit in God's court?

How many of us NOT think bad thoughts sittin inside Gurdwara? How many of us NOT look at people having useless stuff in mind while sitting inside Gurdwara? How many of us NOT do stupid things at home where we have gutke or even prakash of SGGS? So are we any different from this person?

Lets try to look at ourselves before we point fingers at others.

veer ji,

your doubt is abs. valid, and i agree with that.

But again, difference will be in meat and alcohol.

Again..arguments could be forwarded, saying....meat is allowed..

so i do understand your concern but..again we'll land up in controversies!

All i m requesting sangat is to do is (1) lets improve ourselves 1st; (2) Talk to the man about it and make him aware that its not right. Once we do so, everything will fall in place. Maybe he will turn out to be an understanding person and give up his practise, and who knows by Guruji's meher might get another job and quit eating meat himself pray.gif

    • Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.
    • 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!!
