I want comments whether a Sikh can eat meat ?????
1. what is the difference between halal meat and Jatka meat.
2.what is science behind halal and Jatka meat and which is good as per science.
As far as I understand it:
Halal meat = where the animal is ritualistically slaughtered, for example by cutting a particular vein and letting the animal bleed to death while reciting verses.
Jhatka meat = where the animal is killed in one stroke, so as to minimize the pain and suffering it has to endure.
And now a question for you:
After getting the answers to your questions above, does it get you any closer to God?
Guru Sahib advises us:
ਜਨ ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰ ਮਿਲਿ ਉਬਰੇ ਮੇਰੀ ਜਿੰਦੁੜੀਏ ਹਰਿ ਜਪਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮਿ ਸਮਾਣੇ ਰਾਮ ॥੧॥
Jan Nānak gur mil ubre merī jinḏuṛī▫e har jap har nām samāṇe rām. ||1||
O servant Nanak, those who meet the Guru are saved, O my soul; chanting the Name of the Lord, they are absorbed in the Name of the Lord. ||1||
ਸਭਿ ਜਾਇ ਮਿਲਹੁ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਕਉ ਮੇਰੀ ਜਿੰਦੁੜੀਏ ਜੋ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਦ੍ਰਿੜਾਵੈ ਰਾਮ ॥
Sabẖ jā▫e milhu saṯgurū ka▫o merī jinḏuṛī▫e jo har har nām ḏariṛ▫āvai rām.
Go, everyone, and meet the True Guru; O my soul, He implants the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, within the heart.
ਹਰਿ ਜਪਦਿਆ ਖਿਨੁ ਢਿਲ ਨ ਕੀਜਈ ਮੇਰੀ ਜਿੰਦੁੜੀਏ ਮਤੁ ਕਿ ਜਾਪੈ ਸਾਹੁ ਆਵੈ ਕਿ ਨ ਆਵੈ ਰਾਮ ॥
Har japḏi▫ā kẖin dẖil na kīj▫ī merī jinḏuṛī▫e maṯ kė jāpai sāhu āvai kė na āvai rām.
Do not hesitate for an instant - meditate on the Lord, O my soul; who knows whether he shall draw another breath?
ਸਾ ਵੇਲਾ ਸੋ ਮੂਰਤੁ ਸਾ ਘੜੀ ਸੋ ਮੁਹਤੁ ਸਫਲੁ ਹੈ ਮੇਰੀ ਜਿੰਦੁੜੀਏ ਜਿਤੁ ਹਰਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਚਿਤਿ ਆਵੈ ਰਾਮ ॥
Sā velā so mūraṯ sā gẖaṛī so muhaṯ safal hai merī jinḏuṛī▫e jiṯ har merā cẖiṯ āvai rām.
That time, that moment, that instant, that second is so fruitful, O my soul, when my Lord comes into my mind.
[Guru Granth Sahib, Ang 540]
