Veerji i used to drive truck from canada to usa with full loads of pork all the time,  i used to bring beer and wines as well. Yes i am Amritdhari. It depends on how you think and how you understand sikhi.

some of my singh friends avoid meat loads- they have reasons for it

i take meat loads- i have my own reasons. I don’t care if i have trailer full if apples or meat- my job is driving. 

There is no job which is sin free. Do your bhagti as mush as possible and don’t worry about the job

 

you're bhagti is not separate from your job.  think of Bhai Lalo.

saying "my job is driving" seems a bit ignorant.  it is like some nazi saying "my job is just driving",

you basically sold out your ethics for $

this doesn't seem correct.  they are selling those things that they think are immoral?  

just because "other people" do something, doesn't make it right.

the point with OP is that due to his financial situation (mortgage) AND the nature of his job, he doesn't have a choice.  that's is why we are sympathetic to his situation.

that is not the same as some 'amritdhari' deliberately selling this stuff to make money!  shame on them!

 

EXCELLENT POINT! They can do without selling items!

NO! Even Amritdhari shop owners handle wine, beers and nicotine. NOTHING WRONG! Consumption is a different matter.

What? No, that is not true. Where did you get that?

We're not supposed to encourage people to consume harmful things because that increases our negative karma. Simple as that.

Do ardaas to guruji and ask for forgiveness.

Every person has to decide how much they will listen to guruji when worldly it hurts them. 

Its a majboori. Try to make a decision that once i have reached this amt of money, or paid this much mortgage, i will stop doing this. 

Yours seems to be the only balanced answer here.

It's one thing to say carrying a meat load is mazboori, as you have.

It's quite another, like some other posters said, that there's no problem whatsoever carrying a meat load.

Sorry Bro, I understand your concern. It will not hurt your rehat. 

To the OP, don't listen this "Gursikh".

Who are you to say straight up won't hurt his rehat?

Let me ask you a question: would carrying a heroin load "not affect his rehat"?

If so, why? 

Also, please tell us whether selling heroin to people would "hurt his rehat" or not.

You're right same as last guy who told me this. Hats off to shop owners who do not sell such stuff.

Job is Naam Simran. Whether there is meat in the trailer has no bearing. 

so it would be ok to exploit someone so long as you doing Naam Simran?  talk about hypocrisy.

that's grossly ignorant and an insult to Naam Simran.
