[QUOTE="hpannu, post: 141753, member: 5545"] Gyani Ji - I always look forward to your comments. Thanks for the reply. I myself just like you said - lived in a house with a poultry farm. I was barely 8 or 9 years old when i was trained how to kill and clean the chicken, fish and used to go to market to get Jhatka meat (goat). Like you said there are so many things to enjoy i stopped killing and eating meat around 1986 ਅਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਛਕਣ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ । One of the reason I asked these blunt questions was - In our town there is a Sikh owned business - ASIAN HALAL MEAT AND KABAB HOUSE. Now the family comes to our Gurduara Sahib and gives donation under the business name above. When i saw it i objected to this practise. But nothing changed. This family says to Sangat members - it's not HALAL it's regular meat, we just named it like that to attract HALAL eaters. Because of this there customers - both SIKHS and non SIKHS purchase and serve it without any guilt. It bothers me. First I stand by the SRM like you. SRM maryada says Kutha / HALAL is not acceptable. Because i live in this society and has seen first hand persons who call themselves SIKHS but engage in anti SIKH practices(business owner is clean shaven - and we liberally call clean shaven as SIKHS too). I know this is a another topic and majority of us will agree and disagree on that label too. All of this bothers me - how far we will go ? our hunger for money is taking us to unchartered grounds- SIKH business owners are selling Cigarattes and other tobbacco products at their gas stations / stores.
