A Sikh generous company based in New Jersey organised a social dinner, known as ‘ langar’, providing pleasant meals globally.
According to a statement released on Friday, the company ‘ This Share a Meal ‘ engaged over 700 participants who distributed vegetable dishes to more than 10, 000 persons across 80 spots in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
According to Onkar Singh, a key organizer of the occasion,” This Share a Meal was inspired by the life and teachings of Guru Nanak, the leader of the Sikh religion, who founded the concept of Langar, or community kitchen.”
Since its founding, the organization has distributed more than 1 million foods throughout the US.
We are trying to teach our children the main principles of our faith, including peace, tranquility, and the process of Oneness—an thought that extends beyond Sikhs to accept all of mankind, Onkar said.
” The universe is one area, and nobody should be starving or unbalanced. We are glad that over 700 participants, including many from the broader American society, have come together to support this trigger”, he added.
The company then distributes 20, 000 foods annually, a significant boost from the first 1, 500 dinners served in its first year.
” I’ve been a part of this incredible effort for more than 15 years, and I’m so happy to see how it has grown. Every year, more and more people- volunteers and donors alike- come together to make this possible”, another volunteer, Harleen Kaur said.
