Sikhism is one of the youngest major world religions, founded in the 15th century in Punjab, India, by Guru Nanak Dev Ji and shaped by the teachings of the Ten Sikh Gurus. The word Sikh means “learner” or “seeker of truth.” Today, Sikhism is followed by over 25 million people worldwide, making it the fifth-largest religion.

Sikhism emphasizes living a truthful, humble, and honest life while remembering God, serving others, and working for the well-being of all (Sarbat da Bhala).
