LANGAR MAKING US FAT ?

Even in the times of Guru Angad Dev Sahib Ji, there was delicious Kheer which was made with ghee. (Mmmm...Kheer...  ...must...focus...). It is us that have slowed down...don't blame the Langar.

I'm not saying that having kheer is bad, I'm talking about having seven different desserts that seems to be the problem. I'm a fan of kheer along with everyone else.

I just think that the quantity of dishes is just too much sometimes.

No ones forcing you to eat everything. Control yourself if your so worried

true.

But that doesn't mean that we shouldn't try to keep things simple. I read a Sakhi where Guru Sahib used to eat something very similiar to gruel during langar. :T:

its a shame but we as Panjabi's have imigrated to all over the globe but have not changed our life style.

the antie at gurdwara still fries the bangan as well as the onions and aloo and then put tarka to all. nonono.gif " a recipe for a Heart attack" says the Doc.

I eat langar no matter how heavy or light they are..

By comparing my home cooked meal with langar.. i find 20X times more fat/oil/ghee in langar food.. Which of course it makes langar more Awesome.. but it's not good for a person who have health issues.. But 4 times langar in a month, i think it won't make a dent on the person health system if he/she control his diet for rest of the 26 days tongue.gif

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
