Sikh Literature

Sikh literature encompasses a rich collection of writings that articulate the faith, history, philosophy, and spiritual teachings of Sikhism. Central texts include the Guru Granth Sahib, a sacred scripture composed of hymns and poetry by Sikh Gurus and spiritual poets, emphasizing devotion, equality, and righteous living. Throughout history, Sikh writers have produced poetry, philosophical works, and historical accounts that reflect the community’s values and spiritual pursuits. This literature plays a crucial role in preserving Sikh identity, inspiring moral conduct, and fostering spiritual understanding within and beyond the Sikh community.
