The Art of Ascendancy-Chardi Kala as described in the Sikhism and Interfaith-IX

You see without the sense of equality, our sol remains thirsty and it is thus never quenched, as the humblest point in us is the soul, ever remaining in the state of selflessness, and thus the desire for quenching with the sense of equality. The powerful and brave, being wise can never be forceful. This sense of equality is best learnt in the Sangat (the Congregation) where one, as a seeker goes to enjoy the feeling of equality.


Shri Guru Amardas Ji founded the concept of Sangat and Pangat, the Pangat is sitting and eating together, without the consideration of caste, creed, rich, poor, ignorant, wise and other negative boosters that quench the soul with lack of sense of equality, the selflessness. One thing over here that is to be noted is that Langar is simply a food, it is Parshad.


Bhai Gurdas Ji says that eating too much at a religious place is the path to de-ascendancy. It lowers our level of spiritual earnings because we may be sharing the Langar that someone else could have eaten, if we take only a little free food, the Langar, is not it. Thanks!
