Why Did God Allow Animal Sacrifice For Christianity And Islam But Not Sikhism?


Recommended Posts

Waheguru Ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji ki fateh

Hello fellow Sikhs,

I am a Sikh recently whom has had his faith re ignited and I've been contemplating God a lot but there's one issue I can't seem to understand.

We as Sikhs accept that prophets from other religions have been on Earth (I think) so that is stating that their religious practices hold some sort of relative validation in terms of their pursuit of God. In Christianity and Islam, God allowed sacrificing of animals in his name and allowed the eating of meat. Whereas in our religion all meat is forbidden and the cruelty of animals and slaughtering of them is forbidden. So why did Waheguru allow animal sacrificing in the past but made an exception now for our religion?

This is just something I've been thinking about and would appreciate it if some of you could share your input!

Vegetarian eat the meat of insects in there fruits and vegetables. Vegatarians don't know insects live in there food like grain and corn and potatoes onions, etc. Vegatarians drink fruit juices which has many insects in the juice. Vegatarians just can't see the insects because the processing plants does a really good job of grinding everything down and packing it for Vegatarians consumers.

Edit: Poster harsharan is lost in his self loathing again and can't seem to read why I speak of vegetarianism. When he is done stroking his ego, he can read the following quote copied and pasted from the person who started this thread.

Whereas in our religion all meat is forbidden and the cruelty of animals and slaughtering of them is forbidden.

Hence I wrote about vegetarianism. Also, I am a vegetarian. Poster harsharan likes to make assumptions(saying I am trying to justify my so called meat eating habits) of those who point out his shortcomings and show others he is not a Sant.

Too much of ego, thus there is more noise then actual nuts, in reality.

The topic is, of why other dharmas like christianity and islam are allowed by god to sacrifice animals, but not sikhi.

Thus the topic is not of attacking vegetarians, just because one is a meat eater, and so to justify one´s sense of guilty, it is better to divert the attention on the other side.

Anyway, NavdeepSingh74 gives an explanation with solid foundation, thus is much more credible and valid, than sheer empty words.

A positive person sees goodness, almost in all; while a negative person just vomits the negativity contained within, and sees faults with almost everyone.

There is no doubt, there is a lot of potential, but in the end it all depends on how we use it, whether in being humble, good and helpful, or, egoistic, negative and destructive.

Sat Sree Akal.

    • 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.
