Sikh Faith

Sikh Faith Symbol

From Wikipedia:

The Sikh religion advocates the pursuit of salvation through disciplined, personal meditation on the name and message of God. A distinctive feature of Sikh faith is a non-anthropomorphic concept of God, to the extent that one can interpret God as the Universe itself. Sikhs are ordained to follow the teachings of the ten Sikh gurus, or enlightened leaders, as well as the holy scripture entitled the Guru Granth Sahib, which, along with the writings of six of the ten Sikh Gurus, includes selected works of many devotees from diverse socio-economic and religious backgrounds. The text was decreed by Gobind Singh, the tenth guru, as the final guru of the Khalsa Panth. Sikh traditions and teachings are distinctively associated with the history, society and culture of the Punjab. Most Sikhs live in the Punjab in India and, until India's partition, millions of Sikhs lived in what is now Pakistani Punjab.
