Sikhi is a path of devotion, equality, and selfless service — a faith founded on the timeless wisdom of the Ten Gurus.
Meditating on God’s name. Keeping the Divine in one’s consciousness through prayer, devotion, and constant remembrance of Waheguru.
Earning an honest living. Working hard with integrity and contributing to society through truthful and ethical means.
Sharing with others. Giving selflessly to those in need — sharing one’s earnings, time, and effort with the community.
Aad Sach, Jugaad Sach, Hai Bhee Sach, Nanak Hosee Bhee Sach.
True in the beginning, true throughout the ages, true even now. O Nanak, forever and ever true.
Unshorn hair, a gift from God representing acceptance of the divine will.
A small wooden comb symbolizing cleanliness, order, and discipline.
A steel bracelet representing restraint, unity with God, and the infinite.
Cotton undergarments symbolizing self-respect, modesty, and readiness.
A ceremonial blade representing courage, the duty to defend the helpless.
Seva — selfless service without expectation of reward — is the cornerstone of Sikh practice. It manifests most visibly through Langar, the community kitchen found in every Gurdwara.
In Langar, everyone sits together on the floor as equals, regardless of caste, creed, religion, or social standing. This revolutionary institution was established by Guru Nanak Dev Ji and expanded by Guru Angad Dev Ji and Guru Amar Das Ji.
The world’s largest free community kitchen runs entirely on volunteer service — open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to every person on earth.
