UCL Sikh Society's Guru Ka Langar Event - 27th Nov 2008

(By my Brother)

Below are some photos from the 2nd UCL Sikh Society's Guru Ka Langar Event (27th Nov 2008). It was a great programme, alot of people came to have Guru Ka Langar, over 2000 I think, which was great! The Langar was kindly made at a Gurudwara in Southall and drop off at the University in the morning. The programme involved many hours of organisation, a big well done to the organisers and everyone who made this event great! :)

Some of the advertising...

There was an exhibition...

The exhibition was on Guru Nanak Dev Ji and Langar...

The pic above tells the story of when Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaaj was young and his father gave him some money, and told him to earn a profit. Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaaj took the money and brought and served food for some holy men he had met, who hadnt eaten for days. Here Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaaj earned a "true profit".

Balwand says that Khivi, the Guru's wife, is a noble woman, who gives soothing, leafy shade to all.

This was where the sangat took off their shoes.

Where people could wash their hands...

When the Sangat partakes of Langar, their heads must be covered. Heres a Sevadaar putting on a Ramala to cover someone's head.

The people who came loved the Langar.

When there is an event like this there are always questions that people asked, its great that people want to learn about Sikhi...
