Langer at Gurudwara

Filed under: General — Desibaba @ 5:44 pm

We were having langer at the gurudwara on the occasion of birth day of Guru Nanak. It was a bright sunny day. Men, women and children dressed in their very best were thronging the Gurudwara. The melody of the “kirtan” was filling the air. Every thing was at peace with every thing. There were long lines of men and women before the langer hall waiting for their turn Devotees who had finished eating were coming out and throwing the left over’s in a drum kept for the purpose in a corner. Suddenly a man wearing tatters appeared from nowhere and started gathering the left over’s in a piece of cloth. He was collecting it and furiously eating it also. Before anybody could react, and stop him from eating the refuse he had filled up his cloth and run away. It saddened me no end. When will India shine for the poor man?
