Elle , Sikhism was founded by Guru Nanak Dev ji

In sikh religion there are 10 Gurus

Being a sikh , you have to have 5 K's with you

K- Kada ( Steel Bangel/Braclet)
K- Kesh ( Hair)
K- Kacha (undergarment)
K- Kirpan (Sword/Knife)
K- Kangha (comb)

According to religion , all those sikhs who takes the holy water ( AMRIT in Punjabi ) has to follow all the 5 ks means he has to grow hair / beard, wear kirpan (sword/knife ) , Kada ( bangle) and keep a comb ( baaj). Those are very religious people , they are not allowed to have drink,smoke or any meat.

Its in within us :) not all are like that

I can only talk for myself here and my belief is this: I have thought of it as a private matter between myself and my Waheguru. But I AM a Sikh, I might not be a very good one but none the less I am a Sikh and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Naam Japo. I also realise that no matter how much I do I know it will never be enough. Only my Waheguru will decide. I do Sukhmani Sahib at 5.30am every morning. I don’t find it very easy to do because I often have to break it down to smaller chunks in order to try and understand it better as the language of the SGGS is not easy. It is what keeps my head together when I am in far off places like Nigeria, the Gulf or indeed other parts of the world.

Vand Kay Shako. – You would be surprised at what and how much we do “Vand” and at the same time realise that there is an awful lot still to do.

Kirat Karni – That is an automatic for me, I have been doing that all my life; my Dad would have beaten the living daylights out of me if I hadn’t. I remember when we were growing up our Dad put a brass plaque on the inside of our front door; it simply said “100% effort, nothing less will do”. Hard work is nothing new to Sikhs.

However, there is fourth and fifth tenets that should be observed and is often missed or at least misunderstood and they are “Seva” and “Simran”. I and have done Seva that needs to be done at some stage or another at the Gurdewara, from cleaning shoes to cleaning toilets. From helping young kids learn Punjabi to giving free Cricket lessons. I have assisted old people at the Gurudewara as well as at their homes which might include taking them out for the day or driving them to visit their Doctor. It involves helping the poor and the infirm.

Simran; very much of Sikhi is taught through Simran, the art of poetry and singing comes directly from Simran. I am deeply in love with Simran.

But the most brilliant memories of Seva that I have are when I did Kar Seva at Darbar Sahib at Amritsar and also helped clean the Kali Baein that runs past Sultanpur Lodhi. I shall cherish those for as long as I live, for it was a privilege.

But as I said, no matter how much I do I know it will never be enough. For me there is no religion like Sikhism.

For those of you who don’t know what Kar Seva is see the link below:
