Similarities between Sikhs and Jews.
« on: May 07, 2011, 08:28:56 PM »
I work at  aplace where i have many Jewish workmates.  and Sometimes we discuss about our religions and to my surprise , i have come across many similarities with Jews People. These people are really family oriented like us and they are  very religious too.
not just religion we have many Cultural similarities like Arrange marriages.. like they have dating system under supervision too..

They always like to discuss more about Sikhism and always tells me about variety of similarities..

So some of the examples are..

1. Judaism like Sikhism is a householder religion too.. They believe Grasthi Jiwan like us.
2. They also believe in covering their head for prayers with a hat called KIPPAH
3. They have belief of formless God too and They have religious Holy book TORAH too which they cover beautifully with embroidered cloth like Rumala Sahib for Guru Granth Sahibji.
4. After services the Sikhs have a "lenger" - a community meal. The Jews have a "kiddush".

5.Another similarity is that Sikhs place their holy book the Guru Granth Sahib on a ver important stool called a Manji Sahib, Jews also place their holy book The Torah on a very special table.
6. 1)      Both our religions are the victims of genocide and dicrimination. (Sikhs: 1984 Anti-Sikh Riots, Wadda Ghalughara. Jews: Holocaust, Spanish Inquisition).
7.TZEDAKAHh is a religious term - meaning charity, and volunteerism is a part of that, though not a requirement. A requirement is to give actual charity (10% of one's income).And this is very similar to DASWANDH in Sikhism.
8. No Caste System is practiced  in both religions
9. Like we have "Ik Onkar" as Mool Mantra , the same way Jewish Mantra in Hebrew language  "Adonai Ephad" Which has similar meaning that God is one.
