Guru Amar Das, the third Sikh Guru, institutionalized the concept of Langar inspired by the teachings of Guru Nanak. He taught that all are equal in the eyes of God. He asked all those wishing to see him, regardless of caste, to first sit together and eat a humble vegetarian meal.  This was a revolutionary concept in 16^th Century India, a country bound by the caste system for many hundreds of years.

Guru's Daily Langar Program:

Tuesday & Thursday, 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm

Blessings to All. We are resuming Daily Langar serving out of Siri Gurbani Sadan (1912 Preuss Road) until we reopen the Guru's Langar Hall. All are welcome to come receive Langar, we only ask that everyone wear a mask and respect the 6 feet social distancing protocol when they come. Please text or call Manjit Kaur before you come, so your Langar can be prepared for pick-up.

We will be packaging Langar for the Midnight Mission and The Harvest Rock Foundation as well, so participation in preparation, serving and/or delivery of Langar are welcome.

To participate or donate, please contact Manjit Kaur at (310) 621-1282.

Community Langar

Guru Ram Das Ashram community members, for many years, took turns providing an informal meal that was served in front of the ashram at 12 p.m. At our langar hall all people can come and eat a free meal. Meals are served to whomever may stop by, including members of the community, neighbors and the homeless on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

It is through your donations that we can continue the lagacy of the Guru's service to all.

To find out how you can donate, please click here.

If you would like to provide langar for about 25-30 people, donate paper goods or offer a monetary donation, contact the Community Coordinator.

Guru ka Langar

Guru ka Langar is a blessed vegetarian communal meal served after Sunday's Gurdwara program. Langar is prepared and served by a different Missal each week. Everyone is welcome to help serve Sunday Langar.  All that is needed is a freshly cleaned pair of hands.  Servers meet outside at the langar service tables immediately following the Gurdwara service and are assigned their tasks.

You may sponsor (provide funds for) or provide (prepare all or part of) Guru ka Langar for any occasion meaningful to you.  If you would like to provide Langar for up to 150 people, donate paper goods or offer a monetary donation, contact the Sevadar at (310) 858-7691.
