A Canadian Sikh group organizes a week-long langar to promote equality, fight hunger and to create cross-cultural dialogue.
“A lot of people see us on the streets, see us in turban and a beard but they do not see what my goal is, what my mission is,” Harman Dhillon, a group member, was quoted as saying.
According to Dhillon, the event was part of “Langar Week”, an event held globally by the people of the Sikh faith.
The event is aimed at creating equality as the rich and the poor are given the same food and equal respect.
The main principles of langar are Fighting Hunger, Equality in Action and Teaching Compassion.
THREE WAYS TO TAKE PART:
1. Take non-Sikhs to a Gurdwara for langar.
2. Organise langar in your local High Street/ College/ work.
3. Join the groups doing langar seva (eg MLSS, SWAT).
We want the world to say, ‘Hello Langar, Goodbye World Hunger’ by participating in Langar Week however you can.
