![]() ![]() There is but one Giver of all life, let me never forget him. If we listen to just one item from the Guru's teachings. The mind is filled with gems and precious stones I would pilgrimmage to a hly river if I thought I would gain His loveīut with it all the ablutions are useless. There is but one Giver of all life, let me never forget Him. He who accepts the teachings of the Gurus as recorded in the scripture (granth) or expressed in the corporate will of the community (panth) is truly a Sikh. At the death of the tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh, the divine spirit remained present within the sacred scripture and the community of the Guru's followers. This same divine spirit passed at Nanak's death into the body of his successor, Guru Angad, and in this manner dwelt successively within a series of ten personal Gurus. God, the original Guru, imparted his message to his chosen disciple Nanak who, having intuitively apprehended the message, thereby absorbed the divine spirit and became himself the Guru. For the strictly orthodox Sikh the faith which by preference he calls Gurmat (in contrast to the western term 'Sikhism') can be regarded as nothing less than the product of direct revelation from God. God is the Satguru of all humanity, and gives the path back home to Him. The Sikh faith is the fifth largest religion in. It was founded by the first Guru, Guru Nanak. Gurmat is the gift of God, or, God revealing the path. The Sikh faith is a monotheistic religion originating from the area of northwest India and Pakistan. ![]()
