Sikhism

Sikhism is a faith that believes in one god, that we are all equal, and that everyone should treat each other with love and respect. The core beliefs of Sikhism are called Guru Granth Sahib Ji and they were written by the Gurus. Sikhism believes that when a person dies, they are sent to a higher place closer to God, so it is important to be kind, generous and honest with other people in our lives. Sikhism teaches us to do good deeds, be respectful to others, and share our blessings with others. Followers of Sikhism focus on non-violence, equality for all people, and live by a set of principles called the 'Five Ks': Kesh (uncut hair and beard), Kara (circular steel bracelet), Kanga (wooden comb), Kaccha (special type of underwear) and Kirpan (sword). The idea behind the five Ks is that they help people to stay focused on what matters in life and to think about how their actions will affect other people. By living by these principles, Sikhs can make a difference in their own lives and in the lives of those around them. In summary, Sikhism is a faith that teaches us to be kind to each other, to live with humility and gratitude, and to focus on the things in life that matter.
