Description
Sikhism has a theology which is based on the fundamental truth “Ek Onkar Satnam” (oneness of God and the only truth is His name) and on the work ethics about honest and hard work and building a classless and casteless society.
EK ONKAR SATNAM highlights these and other characteristics of the Sikh religion, which was founded by Guru Nanak about five centuries ago.
Sikhism is a unique path of religion. It was enunciated by Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the first Guru. The aim of Sikhism was to create a classless, casteless society, where each individual enjoyed freedom of expression, observance and adherence to religion, religious tolerance, social equality, where duties and rights were accorded equal importance.
