Sikhism
Key beliefs in Sikhism
Sikhs believe there is only one God, which is genderless and eternal. They refer to God as Waheguru. Sikhs believe in rebirth and karma, meaning their religion is a way of life and that in every action, they should remember God.
The nature of human life in Sikhism
The focus of Sikh life is to establish a firm relationship with God. There are many aspects of Sikh life, but the primary focus is equality and the oneness of humanity. This belief forms the basis of Sikh worship and practice.
