सब घट एकै आत्मा, जानै सो नीका ।

आपा पर में चीन्ह ले, दर्शन है पीव का ॥

Anecdote of Guru Nanak Dev Ji at the Kumbh Fair 

.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji once went to the Kumbh Fair. Some people were cooking rich food and some Aghori Sadhus were cooking meat. Guru Nanak Dev Ji felt sad seeing this, and started cooking vegetables in a pot. 

.

The Aghori Sadhus asked him what he was cooking? He replied, "Cow’s meat." 

The news spread like wildfire and all the sadhus collected together to ask him, "Why are you committing this terrible sin?" 

.

Guru Sahib uttered this shabad (poem): "All have the same blood and the same flesh! Then why do you discriminate?" 

When the matter was starting to get out of hand, they noticed that Guru Sahib was cooking vegetables. 

.

Guru Sahib sang: 

"There is no difference between a goat and a wolf." 

"Why do you discriminate and say eating goat’s meat is acceptable but eating cow’s meat is a sin. Meat is meat. God lives in everyone. Killing and eating any living being is tantamount to killing and eating God. When all the living beings of this world are the same, then why discriminate between a goat and a cow? All the living beings are a part of God, they are all His Forms." 

.

"It may be a goat or a sheep, both have the same blood; then what is the difference between a baby goat and a baby human being. If we can eat a goat’s baby, we can also eat a human baby." 

Guru Nanak Dev Ji says, "I have known this thing: that the same God lives in everyone."
