Home Introduction to Sikhism Brief Introduction The Sikh Gurus Khalsa : Saint - Soldier The Sikh Philosophy ... The Sikh Symbols INTRODUCTION Over twenty million Sikhs follow a revealed, distinct, and unique religion born five centuries ago in the Punjab region of northern India. Between 1469 and 1708, ten Gurus preached a simple message of truth, devotion to God, and universal equality. Often mistaken as a combination of Hinduism and Islam, the Sikh religion can be characterized as a completely independent faith: Sikhism rejects idolatry, the caste system, ritualism, and asceticism. It recognizes the equality between both genders and all religions, prohibits the intake of any intoxicants, and encourages an honest, truthful living. Sikhs have their own holy scripture, Guru Granth Sahib. Written, composed, and compiled by the Sikh Gurus themselves, the Guru Granth Sahib serves as the ultimate source of spiritual guidance for Sikhs. While the Sikhs hold their Gurus in high reverence, they are not to be worshipped; Sikhs may only worship God. Members of the Sikh community are mainly concentrated in their homeland, Punjab; however, substantial Sikh populations exist throughout the rest of India and the world. Punjabi, a variant of the Hindi language with some Persian influence, is the spoken and written language of the Sikh people. Male members of the Sikh religion use the name, Singh (lion), as their middle or last name, while females use the name, Kaur (princess). Sikhs tend to be industrious and pioneering; this accounts for their general success wherever they live and settle. The hard-working nature of the Sikhs is derived from their religion, which can be best characterized as a faith of unlimited optimism.

Contemporary Sikhism ... E-mail About twenty five miles north of San Francisco, El Sobrante Gurdwara is located at the hilltop of the El Sobrante Valley hills. It is serving the Sikh community in the Bay Area and given the name Sikh Center of San Francisco Bay Area. It is known that Gurdwara came into existence in late 1970s. Previously local Sikhs usually carried out the religious ceremonies in their homes; however, as more and more Sikhs immigrated to the Bay Area, Sikh community decided that a Sikh Temple was necessary to serve local Sikhs in terms of carrying out general ceremonies such as weddings and Akhand Path ceremonies, etc. Initially the Gurdwara building used to be the current Langar Hall building. With many generous financial contributions of local and "remote" Sikh Sangat of California, the new building was completed in 1993 after 3-4 years of construction. Gurdwara Sahib is equipped to accommodate seven to eight hundred people. Situated at the hilltop, its architecture and uniqueness attracts many people to come and see the site. At the northeast wing of Second floor, a huge deck offers a breath taking view of the El Sobrante valley and San Pablo Bay.

http://members.aol.com/porchnus/beliefs/sikhism.htm - Beliefs - Sikhism Interfaith Religion and Beliefs for an Internet Generation PORCH NUS The E-Zine of The Front Porch Profile of a Belief System: by Sikhism: Its History and Customs ikhs are followers of Sikhism, an Indian religion that originated in the Punjab in northwest India. In 1995, India had approximately 18.7 million Sikhs, 1.9% of the population. Small communities of Sikhs also exist in the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, Malaysia, and East Africa. The movement was founded in the Punjab by Guru Nanak (1469-1539 CE), who sought to combine Hindu and Muslim elements in a single religious creed [ 1]. He taught the unity of God, brotherhood of man, rejection of caste and futility of idol worship. He was followed by nine masters, the last of whom was Guru Gobind Singh (1666-1708; guru 1675-1708), who involved his followers in an unsuccessful martial struggle against Moghul rule. After Guru Gobind's assassination, the Sikhs were persecuted by the Muslim Moghul rulers until 1799 when, under Ranjit Singh (1780-1839), they laid claim to a large part of northwest India. After Ranjit's death his Sikh kingdom disintegrated into anarchy. The British moved into the Punjab, and the Sikh Wars followed (1845-46, 1848-49).

35. Gatka.  An Introduction.  Sikh Culture & Arts .  Sikh Women Community An article giving an overview of the art and its history. http://www.sikhwomen.com/sikhism/culture_arts/gatka.htm

Sikhism Sikh Culture . Gatka An Introduction by Harkirat Singh Gatka, is an ancient martial art used by the Gurus to help defend the religious beliefs of Sikhi and also those of other religions. The Gurus spent their lives preaching about God and the importance of the harmony between man on earth. Some religions believe in non-violence to the extent that they would not even defend their beliefs by fighting back, but would rather just ignore the enemy and be killed instantly. However, it was proved by the Gurus that to preserve harmony on earth a source of defence was/is needed. It is a common view that Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji (6th Guru) and Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji (10th Guru) were not the only Gurus to defend the endangered religions of their time. In fact Sri Guru Angad Dev Ji (2nd Guru) was a very keen wrestler who encouraged people to keep fit all his life. Baba Buddha Ji, who was alive from Guru Nanak Dev Ji's (1st Guru) time, was Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji's (5th Guru) fencing master and from this the knowledge of Gatka was passed onto the sixth Guru, Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji, who lived military life. Sri Guru Hargobind Ji, also encouraged and taught his followers, of which a majority joined his army to keep fit and practice Gatka, along with their NITNEM (prayers).

Sikhism Founded in the 15th century by Guru Nanak (1469-1539 in northern India, in the Punjab... he tried to unite Hindus and Muslims. - "Sikh" means "disciple", and they are the disciples of 10 gurus (religious teachers, little less than God). - Guru Nanak started his revelations saying, "there is no Hindu and no Musulman (Muslim), and the path I shall follow is God's"... - Like the "Muslims", he revealed God as the only One, the Truth, the Creator, immortal, and omnipresent... and forbade images in the temples, only the Book "Adi Granth" is the object of ceremonial reverence in the temples and the only repository of spiritual authority... because God never incarnated into a human beeing. - Like the "Hindus", he believes in Reincarnation, the Law of Karma, celebrates the same Hindu festivals, but strongly opposes the caste system, and no Hindu gods. The "Khalsa" It started as religion of "love" and "peace"... but both the Hindus and Muslims fought them, and after 2 gurus were killed, they took to arms, and the religion developed from a pacifist to a new militant brotherhood called "Khalsa".

40. Sikhism In India Learn about Guru Nanak, the founder of the Sikh faith. http://members.tripod.com/adaniel/sikhism.htm

History Since independence Religions Caste System ... Religions in India Sikhism About 2% of India's population are Sikhs. Even so they because of their unique appearance, sometimes stand for India. Traditionally the men keep their hair and do not shave their beard or moustache. They gather their head hair in a turban. Sikhism is comparatively a new religion in India. This religion was established by Guru Nanak. Guru Nanak was born in 1469 in the Punjab region of north India. Guru Nanak was a Hindu and he loved to travel and learn. He developed a new religion and included in it what he thought were the good beliefs of the two dominant religions in the Punjab region, Hinduism and Islam . And Sikhism indeed has beliefs from these two religions. From Islam it adopted the belief in the existence of one invisible God. From Hinduism it adopted the belief in Karma and reincarnation, meaning your actions in this life will decide your fate in the next incarnation. The Sikhs also cremate their dead ones as is done in Hinduism. The creators of Sikhism tried to abolish some of the Indian customs such as the caste system and Sati - burning of the widow. In Sikhism everyone has equal rights irrespective of caste, creed, color, race, sex or religion. Sikhism rejects pilgrimage, fasting, superstitions and other such rituals. Sikhism does not have a clergy class as it considers this as a gateway to corruption. However they have readers and singers in their temples.
