It was founded by Guru Nanak in the late part of the 15th century

00:00:20 --> 00:00:24

The word Sikh is derived from the root word sisia, which means

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

disciple.

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

Therefore, Sikhism has got 10 gurus, the first and the founder

00:00:56 --> 00:00:59

The third K is the color that is the metal or steel metal, which is

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

And if you ask any SEC regarding the concept of God and Sikhism,

00:01:43 --> 00:01:47

the best supply I can give you, it's good to you the Mool mantra

00:01:48 --> 00:01:52

the fundamental creed of Sikhism, that is mentioned in the first

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

volume of the Guru Granth Sahib, First Chapter, first verse that's

00:01:56 --> 00:02:01

called the chapel G, that Almighty God, His great and compassionate,

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

who's free from fear and hate.

00:02:05 --> 00:02:11

The unmanifest form of Almighty God and Sikhism is in Ankara. And

00:02:11 --> 00:02:17

the manifest form is O'Gara. And there are various attributes and

00:02:17 --> 00:02:21

descriptions given to Almighty God in the sacred scriptures of the

00:02:21 --> 00:02:21

six.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:29

It says that Almighty God is a cult that is eternal, his cantar

00:02:29 --> 00:02:34

that is the Creator. He said nama that is the holy name. He is Sahib

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

that is the Lord.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:42

He is perverted the God that is the Cherisher he is Karim that is

00:02:42 --> 00:02:47

the Beneficent. He is Rahim that is the Merciful. He is Waheguru

00:02:47 --> 00:02:51

that is the one and true Almighty God. These are the various

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

descriptions given to Almighty God in Sikhism.

00:02:56 --> 00:03:01

Sikhism it is a strictly monotheistic religion. It is

00:03:01 --> 00:03:02

against idol worship.

00:03:05 --> 00:03:11

Sikhism does not believe in our tar, that is Almighty God

00:03:11 --> 00:03:15

incarnating Almighty God taking the form of human being.

00:03:17 --> 00:03:22

And we know that Guru Nanak Sahib, he was influenced by St. Kabhi.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

And many students they learn the famous couplets of St. Kabir in

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

their schools, and one of the couplets they learn ah

00:03:30 --> 00:03:35

took may summit and sub curry soup maker and Joe sukma, salmon and

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

curry to Kai Hui.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:43

That during trouble people remember God but no one remembers

00:03:43 --> 00:03:47

God during peace and happiness. The person who remembers God

00:03:47 --> 00:03:51

during peace and happiness, why should trouble touch him? And a

00:03:51 --> 00:03:54

similar message is mentioned the Glorious Quran in surah xumo

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

Chapter number 39 was number eight.

Mehta bakufu, Pauline in neckerman os hyva Now that when trouble

00:04:16 --> 00:04:20

touches a man, he cries out to his Lord asking for forgiveness, but

00:04:20 --> 00:04:25

when he has peace and happy times you forget Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:04:25 --> 00:04:28

he forgets his Lord does misleading others in the wrong

00:04:28 --> 00:04:29

track.

00:04:31 --> 00:04:36
