Sikhism is the youngest of the religions practiced in India. It was founded by Guru Nanak, who was born at Talwandi near Lahore, now in Pakistan. It started as a reaction to Hinduism, which had become too ritualistic. Nanak's disciples came to be called Sikhs, which is derived from a Sanskrit word Shishya meaning disciple.

Whenever there are Sikhs, there will be a Gurdwara. It may be a magnificient white ornate building rising high or a plain flat-roofed building remarkable for its size. Strictly speaking a gurdwara is any place where a copy of the Guru Granth Sahib is installed. Read More

Worship may take place at any time and no quoram is required. It is customary for Sikhs to assemble for congregational worship early in the morning ot in the evening. This was the traditiona of Guru Nanak's community at Kartarpur, one which recognised the realities of the householder life. During the day, it is expected that the Sikhs practise their faith


"God is one, the only one, the one without the second." These are the recurrent observations of the six Gurus whose hyms are contained in the Adi Granth, and of Guru Gobind Singh. It is certainly true to say that Guru Nanak believed in a personal God who could be worshipped and loved. This understanding of God was derived from experience.


The principle of revelation is nowhere better demonstrated than by the inclusion of the bhagat bani. It comprises about one-sixth of the total (938 shabads out of total 5894), thus exceeding the contribution of any one Guru other than Guru Arjan.
