Sikhism was founded by
Guru Nanak in the 15th century, it began as a reaction against the caste
system. Sikhs believe in one god, in rebirth and Karma, but strongly reject the
worship of idols. Fundamental to Sikhs is the concept of Khalsa, or belief in a
chosen race of soldier-saints who abide by strict codes of moral conduct
(abstaining from alcohol, tobacco and drugs) and engage in a crusade for
righteousness. There are 5 emblems denoting the Khalsa brotherhood : the
unshaven beard and uncut hair, the comb, the loose underwear, the sword and the
steel bangle.
On the right, with Coolpit, Sunny and Gulprit (usually much more smiley than on the picture) just before I left the next morning. |
