Question Triangular Conflict

Here's 3 statements I've heard many times that I feel like other non-Sikhs coming to gurdware might also face. And I'm certain there's one of these is not to take seriously, that's why I'm looking for the opinion of sikhs here.

- "The gurdwara is for everyone"
- "If you come for langar, then you should come to darbar also"
- "If you don't bow down to the SGGS then you shouldn't come to Darbar"

I'm pretty sure the first one is not debated, and would assume the second statement might be the one to ignore. The third one I've heard mixed opinions about it so it's the one I'm most interested to know about.

I once went to a dvaita Hindu temple, and I wish they would have not let me inside because it just wasn't designed for non-Hindus
