Sikhism

The Sikh Religion over 20 million people worldwide and worlds 5th largest religion Sikhism preaches a message of devotion and remembrance of God at all times, truthful living, equality of mankind and denounces superstitions and blind rituals.

Founder of Sikhism Guru Nanak - born in 1469 Preached a message of love and understanding and criticized the blind rituals of the Hindus and Muslims.

The Sikh Religion Sikhs are the disciples of God who follow the writings and teachings of the Ten Sikh Gurus.

Major Beliefs One God - He is the same God for all people of all religions. The soul goes through cycles of births and deaths before it reaches the human form. The goal of our life is to lead an exemplary existence so that one may merge with God. Sikhs should remember God at all times and practice living a virtuous and truthful life.

Major Beliefs The true path to achieving salvation and merging with God are living the life of a householder, earning a honest living and avoiding worldly temptations and sins. Sikhism condemns blind rituals such as fasting, visiting places of pilgrimage, superstitions, worship of the dead, idol worship etc.

Major Beliefs Sikhism preaches that people of different races, religions, or sex are all equal in the eyes of God. Full equality of men and women. Women can participate in any religious function or perform any Sikh ceremony or lead the congregation in prayer

Differences between Sikhism and Christianity/Judaism Anyone can achieve salvation regardless of the religion that they follow if they endear God in their heart and daily actions. Christian concept of Jesus as son of God. Sikhism regards all as the children of God. Infant baptism. One should only become a Khalsa when they are able to fully understand the duties and responsibilities. No special Day for worship. Heaven and Hell as physical entities. In Sikhism there are no such physical places. Hell is equivalent to the cycles of births and deaths and heaven is equivalent to the soul merging with God. No priestly class making Sikhism free from their weaknesses and egos, the only priest is the Living Guru, the Guru Granth Sahib which contains all the knowledge and is available for reading by any Sikh.
