Sikhism

Sikhism is a monotheistic religion founded in the 15th century in Punjab, India, by Guru Nanak and nine subsequent Gurus. It emphasizes belief in one God, equality, community service, and justice. Key practices include meditation, prayer, and living a truthful life while adhering to strong ethical principles. Sikhs celebrate their faith through communal meals in gurdwaras (places of worship) and uphold values such as humility and compassion. The central text is the Guru Granth Sahib, which contains hymns and teachings from the Gurus and other enlightened beings, guiding followers in their spiritual journey and daily life.
