Sikhism -- Founded around 500 years ago by Guru Nanak Devji. He expressed the reality that there is one God, 'Ek Ong Kar', and many paths, and the Name of God is Truth, "Sat Nam". Guru Nanak Dev Ji stimulated a new wave of thought in all human beings so that we all may lead a healthy life.  He taught us:

  • To adjust ourselves to the environment on the basis of Truth and reality without sacrificing our own individuality.

  • To achieve Oneness with God by living an active life of Gurmukh.

  • That Righteousness and giving up of vice are the ways to realise the essence of God.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji asked for total commitment to understand that God’s presence is felt everywhere and in all spheres.

He gave us the concepts of:

Naam Japna - To Remember God at all times, which will bring you contentment, truth, humility and virtue

Kirat Karna - To work and earn a livelihood by honest means which preaches against slavery and injustice.

Wand Chakna - To share wealth, brings the essence of equality to oneself.

The Goal of a Sikh is to live in the Will of God and to remember that service and sacrifice express love and devotion to God.
