Feeki chaa or meethi chaa ? .. The point to which we abuse langar system

[Guest AjeetSinghPunjabi]

Issues with langar today is more complicated than it seems for various points

 The already well fed ones with big stomachs come to just get free food , applies to both sikhs and non-sikhs . While the poor ones are shooed away . 

Even if we help the poor, for how many days can we give them free langar . Also , it attracts more poor to come to langar.

But still poors and destitutes have first right over guru ka langar.

There should be some middle way.

Secondly , those of us who do sponsor the langar, tend to have this mentality of still owning the food. Ideally , we should give our ego over langar food once we give it up for gurudwara, but we still decide that are packets allowed to be taken home , that we will not let people take extra packets of langar and so on .

If we made langar simple almost tasteless, then all the problems will be solved.

Less waste, less OTT chili spices , and less ppl abusing the system cuz food is not that good.  It will be healthier, we can say no mixing of ingredients. Totally ban dairy except in degh and kheer and chah., so vegans, gluten free can eat. Always have rice and daal and kheer and chaah if possible. 

Also only poor ppl will want to eat then those with majboori.

Also we taksalis were always taught that if u eat too much langar its bad. Not only does ur paath n sewa get used up, but u get a share of the dukh of person doing langar. For example if someone did ardaas that my cancer go away and does langar for it, then everyone who ate langar will get small benign tumor. Basically the dukh of that person is shared among the sangat in small parts so it becomes bearable to all. 

However then we were told that this is only rumors, hoe can gurus langar be bad. But i think taksalis r smart. They spread that to stop their students from overeating at langars. Whether true or not, it works.

So spread this everywhere and ppl might stop abusing. Esp send.it to the hindus, with their idols n black magic they should have no problem believing it

 

Doesn't seem like they are that smart if that fall for that ridiculous theory.
