History and Importance of Sikh Religion

Sikhism is the fifth-largest religion in India and with over 27 million followers across the world. The ‘Sikh’ word in Punjabi refers to ‘disciple’. The foundation of religion was established by Guru Nanak Dev Ji after watching the evils, discrimination, casteism, and more in the surroundings. Sikh religion is a monotheistic religion that originated in the Punjab region across the Indian subcontinent in the late 15th century. The monotheistic religion means belief in one God and follows the specified worship patterns. It is also known as ‘Sikhi’ and ‘Sikhmat’. Sikhism believes that all people are equal before God and the holy book of the religion is Guru Granth Sahib. It is considered not only the religious scripture but also the last living Guru of Sikhism. In 1708, Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Guru of Sikhism, declared before his death that there would be no other Guru after him and the last Guru would be Guru Granth Sahib. It is considered as the Adi Granth and it consists of a collection of words, proverbs, couplets, and articles.

When we talk about the Sikhism gurus, there are ten main gurus of the religion who made the religion stronger. The list of ten Gurus are as follows – Guru Nanak Dev Ji (1469-1539), Guru Angad (1469-1539), Guru Amardas (1552-1574), Guru Ramdas (1574-1581), Guru Arjun (1581-1606), Guru Hargobind (1606-1645), Guru Harrai (1645-1661), Guru Harkishan (1661-1664), Guru Tej Bahadur (1664-1675), and Guru Gobind Singh (1675-1708).
