is there a certain prayer I can say before eating meals?

Salok:

kaam krodhh ar lobh moh binas jaae aha(n)maev ||

Sexual desire, anger, greed and emotional attachment - may these be gone, and egotism as well.

naanak prabh saranaagathee kar prasaadh guradhaev ||1||

Nanak seeks the Sanctuary of God; please bless me with Your Grace, O Divine Guru. ||1||

pourree ||

Pauree:

rain dhinas parabhaath thoohai hee gaavanaa ||

Night and day, morning and night, I sing to You, Lord.

jeea ja(n)th sarabath naao thaeraa dhhiaavanaa ||

All beings and creatures meditate on Your Name.

thoo dhaathaa dhaathaar thaeraa dhithaa khaavanaa ||

You are the Giver, the Great Giver; we eat whatever You give us.

bhagath janaa kai sa(n)g paap gavaavanaa ||

In the congregation of the devotees, sins are eradicated.

jan naanak sadh balihaarai bal bal jaavanaa ||25||

Servant Nanak is forever a sacrifice, a sacrifice, a sacrifice, O Lord. ||25||

jis dhaa dhithaa khaavanaa this keheeai saabaas ||

Let us all celebrate Him, from whom we receive our nourishment.

naanak hukam n chalee naal khasam chalai aradhaas ||22||

O Nanak, no one can issue commands to the Lord Master; let us offer prayers instead. ||22||

since the shabads are composed from differnt parts of gurbani, an audio recording of the 2 ardaas as a whole will be hard to find, unless somebody personally decides to do it themselves and then upload it.

and plus, this is not set in stone. everybody says their own little ardaas, but those 2 are most commonly used.

maybe you could memorize them, so wouldnt need any audio file. or if you need the audio for pronunciation purposes, then maybe i could do some homework and find them throughout katha. let me know if thats wat ur looking for bhaji.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
