Sikhism is a religion founded in the 16th century in Northern India in the region of Punjab. It was founded by Guru Nanak the first spiritual leader followed by a line of ten gurus. The followers of Sikhism are known as Sikhs who have to abide by certain rules and regulation as laid out in the religious scriptures the Guru Granth Sahib.
The main underlying philosophy in Sikhism is belief in one God; the Sikh religion is distinctly monotheistic in nature. God is regarded as universal and eternal and the one way to approach him is by self discipline and meditating on the name of God. The philosophy lays emphasis on salvation or spiritual progress which leads to oneness with God.
The Sikh religion cautions the devotee to stay away from the five evils namely ego, greed, anger, lust and attachment the root cause of Man's suffering and his separation from God. The Gurdwara or the place of worship offers charity and free food to the needy and is a symbol of the philosophy of the Sikh religion which advocates a balance between work, worship and charity.
