As you know Sikhism is the faith of the modern day scientific age,The message given By Guru Nanak Dev Ji is simple and ever living
Earn your means honestly,
Sing the Praises of the One-In-all-And-all-in-One and
Share the fruits from the earning with your brethren.
This is yet so simple approach and but we make it difficult by getting into false rituals born out of ignorance.ignorance is shed when one listens and follow the divine message of the Guru-The teacher en lightener
Believers of Sikhism Often practice going to Gurdwara with their heads covered as a part of daily routine where the hymns and prayers are performed by Ragis which set the tone for spiritual Bliss. After the prayer, Hukumnama is Obtained from Guru Granth Sahib Ji - The Eternal Living Guru which is considered the Divine Order.The Very First Hukumnama of the Day is taken during the ambrosial hours daily . After this normally a community kitchen is organized and simple cooked food is distributed among those present.

No Idol worship,no false rituals and worship of the One are core elements.The hymns are composed not only by the Sikh Gurus but also by the Saints from Hindu as well as Muslim faith.Everyday millions of people from all corners of the world irrespective of their faith bow their heads in reverence to the Eternal Guru.These Hymns or the Shabads are performed daily in gurdwaras with the help of set of musical instruments which are most commonly Harmonium and Tabla.These Hymns have high degree of truth attached to it and therefore one who listen feels like enjoying Spiritual bliss-Forever young and pure.

As it is said Seeing is believing,when a person sees then only he comes to know about certain things of life.

The principal belief of Sikhism is faith in V?higur??represented using the sacred symbol of eke Ankara, the Universal God. Sikhism advocates the pursuit of salvation through disciplined, personal meditation on the name and message of God. A key distinctive feature of Sikhism is a non-anthropomorphic concept of God, to the extent that one can interpret God as the Universe itself. The followers of Sikhism are ordained to follow the teachings of the ten Sikh gurus, or enlightened leaders, as well as the holy scripture entitled the Gur? Granth S?hib, which includes selected works of many devotees from diverse scion-economic and religious backgrounds. The text was decreed by Gobind Singh, the tenth guru, as the final guru of the Khalsa Panth. Sikhism's traditions and teachings are distinctively associated with the history, society and culture of the Punjab. Adherents of Sikhism are known as Sikhs (students or disciples) and number over 23 million across the world. Most Sikhs live in the state of Punjab in India and, prior to the country's partition, millions of Sikhs lived in what is now known as the Punjab province of Pakistan.
