OK Preet I will explain vegan to you ....you are not a vegan just by stopping eating dairy meat and eggs ...you have to stop honey and anything taken from animals , so you will not wear silk, wool, suede or leather , you will not put lanolin, beeswax, honey, shellac,cochineal containing products on your skin or hair . So being Vegan is a complete philosophical stance in life seperate from Sikhi . What you have issues with is seeing vegetation as purer than meat when EVERYTHING is of the same source , what affects purity is OUR actions thoughts etc . I already told you I don't partake and no-one who comes to my home who does gets their way , they get same foods that amritdhari folk eat. I don't tell others what to eat just make sure I don't do something I know is not right, in fact I went through the school system with my friends for eight years and they never realised I was a veggie because they were used to being to made to feel inferior by their lectures . You don't know with what karam they came and when kirpa can happen so why be nasty and earn a black mark on your own record ? I mean Sadhana was a kasai and then kirpa happened ...
the uncomfortable truth is the dairy industry is full of paap which is being earned by us who take benefit from it . Remember Kabir ji's words about earning the paap of the goat's murder for eating his flesh , we earn the paap of the murder of the male calfs , the distress of the mother, the repeated mistreatment, the pain, the early death , so unless we have milk from khalsa ethical farm I wouldn't want have it :
