    How different are messages of Buddha and Founding Guru Nanak of Sikhs!

    Buddha was not a God. He never claimed to be a God. He never claimed to be messenger of God. He was a man who achieved Nirvana through Human efforts. Guru Nanak claimed the same except he accepted God within us. How different are messages of Buddha and Founding Guru Nanak of Sikhs! Buddha and...

    New to Gurumuki and the Punjabi language

    God Vs Creation Of The Earth/universe

    Christians are very clear from their bible on how God created the world in 7 days (6000 yrs ago). I believe this to be bogus, and very flawed. I've yet to read up on how Islam or Hindu's explain this question. But was more interested in how Sikhi explains the creation of the world and...

    Is It More Important To Believe In God Or To Be A Sikh

    To be a Sikh, you pretty much believe in the existence of God. But people will argue how to be a Sikh, like I'm Sikh but cut hair, yet believe in God inside me. But there are people who are not Sikhs (Jews, Hindus, Christians, etc.) who also believe in God. If it was proven that there is no...

    Why Our Souls Separated From God?

    Since according to sikhi, the ultimate aim of human life is to become ONE with god, I wonder why souls separated from god in the first place? P.S. I don't wanna hurt anyone's feelings so please bear with it if my question sounds arrogant.

    If Christianity Can Be Proven Wrong, Then What Makes Sikhism So Right?

    Christianity has many flaws, and yet it's one of the oldest and first religions. Religion is supposed to be the word of God. Yet science, common sense, and flat out ignorant teachings show that Christianity has many flaws or is just wrong and not real. So then what makes Sikhism so right...

    Hard To Believe In God / Waheguru

    I know that this is uh a bit controversial and all that. Seriously, I do not want to cause any argument and all that, but I am having trouble in believing god in all that.

    Opinion Definition Of Diety, Human Form, God And Waheguru

    Wikipedia would disagree <snipped unnecessary quip. Try "some members"- AK>. Even the word Deity does not have to point to a human like supernatural figure: "Deities are depicted in a variety of forms, but are also frequently expressed as having human form. Some faiths and traditions consider...

    Sikhism What Is The Meaning Of Realization Of God ?

    This question has bothered me. I do not appreciate the meaning of this term as per Sikh philosophy. It is stated that merger of soul with super soul is the objective .Even now we have consciousness that is small jot of God. God has larger consciousness may be called as Jot , itself. In that case...

    Worship … Love Of God: Greed Or Mortal Dread

    The Creator – God, as usually described; His nature and existence! Not new questions for humanity but baffling, nevertheless. What do historians and linguists tell us about the word god and its origin. I am not a theologian so let me lay the matter to rest with the brief note that the English...

    Meeting God

    Atheism My Thoughts On (a) God

    I find myself at a confusing point in my life I think. I enjoy Sikhi. I enjoy learning about religions in general. But none of my learning has convinced me there is (a) god. Almost, the opposite I might say. Here are some of my thoughts: a) Many religions seem to claim, or at least have...
