Vegetarianism
From SikhiWiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
The sikh Guru's encouraged their followers to be vegetarian. Sikhs do not eat or take into the body anything which is harmful or will have ill effects upon the body or mind. Meat is a stimulant of the gross passions of the mind and body, and is harmful physically as well. Along with the karmic consequences of killing other animals unnecessarily, a Sikh does not take another’s life so s/he may live.
