It embodies the principles of equality and community in Sikhism, emphasizing that all are welcome to partake in the meal. Anyone can join, whether they are Sikh or from another faith, as langar is a symbol of hospitality and service.
Sikhism started in Punjab, which is in Northern India.

The founder of Sikhism, Guru Nanak Dev Ji, was born in 1469 in Punjab, India. However, one might say that Sikhism itself began in 1507, succeeding Nanak's epiphany and the start of his Guruship.ANS-2: The seed of Sikhism was soed by Guru Nanak Dev Ji and SIKHISM started from the day GURU NANAK started preaching.

The room in a gurdwara where everyone eats together is called the "langar hall." In this space, free meals are served to all visitors, regardless of their background, promoting equality and community. The practice of langar emphasizes the principles of sharing, service, and humility in Sikhism.
Langar (Community Kitchen) was started by Guru Angad dev Ji, the second Guru of Sikhism. As Sikhism grew, more and more Sikhs came from far and near to pay their homage to Sikh Guru. Guru Angad Dev Ji thus started langar so that Sikhs coming from long distance could have some food.But more importantly, there was also a social factor for it, as the society was divided into many castes and the difference between Hindus and Muslims.It was made mandatory by Sikh Guru that only when one would sit down at the same level as the other and eat together that one can join the Sangat (Company of Holy).Thus, the cooking, cleaning of dishes and serving of food happens with everybody involved irrespective of their background. All of them sit on the ground,as it is consider to be levelled and eat food. This practice is still in effect at Gurdwara (Sikh place of worship). The other name for langar is Pangat. So the saying goes: First Pangat, then Sangat. So Langar is Very Important as it brings everybody from all corners together. When creating the meal, Sikhs follow the practice of Sewa. Sewa means selfless service.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji started Sikhism in the year 1499 A.D.
yes it is permissible to shift from Christianity to Sikhism because in Sikhism everyone is equal. It's a bit like the langar meal where anyone can come to the meal no matter how old, what religion what gender and anyone can volunteer to cook and everyone has to it at the same level when eating. They do all this to show that everyone is equal. Sikhs are quite generous!!!!
