      Wrong, a basic understanding of Sikhism contradicts this. Sikhism is clearly a distinct religion when it rejects the worship of all hindu God's and goddesses, rejects the vedas in their entirety, and does not recognize the bhagavad gita as their holy book. The hindu caste system is also not permitted in Sikhism. Stop spreading misinformation.

    Guru Nanak was born a mystic, God sent persona, who taught love and peace for all humanity. He was against superstitions, dogmas, rituals and idol worshipping, he extensively travelled the world spreading the message of a universal brotherhood void of caste, color and religion. Followers were known as Sikhs, which means “Disciple/Follower/Learner”. His basic message was: Naam Japo ( Repeat and remember God’s name), Kirt Karo( Work honest and hard), and lastly, Vand Chako( Donate 10%of your earnings to charity).

    Sometimes the history of Sikhism gives people the wrong idea that Sikhs hate Muslims. It is not true. We've lived together Sikhs and Muslims for a long time. No religion is evil. There are only good and evil people. and Jahangir, who was an evil human being happened to be a Muslim, just like I'm sure there are people who are Sikhs and are terrible people. Your religion doesn't define you, what defines you is if you're following the morals and the beliefs of your religion. If someone like Jahangir is forcing people to do something, he was never a true Muslim.

    Thank you for making this beautiful introduction about Sikhi, even though I was born in Sikh family but most of Indian born Sikh like myself or our parents or grandparents don't even understand our Gurus ji's teaching, in the last 10 years or so many good parchark are spreading the teaching based on Guru Granth Sahib ji, so but I can understand is that our Gurus didn't create another religion, I think they tried to bring the whole Humanity together because starting from Guru Granth Sahib ji which have writing of poets from other faiths than laying the foundation of Harimander Sahib (Golden Temple) Guru ji chosed person from another faith to do it, the four doors which shows that everyone is welcome from all corners of the world, the Langer where everyone can sit and have meal together it doesn't matter if person is rich, poor, Hindu, Muslim, Christian or any other faith, so what I can understand that Sikhi is not another faith, Guru Ji teaches us that we all are brothers & Sisters we all have one father people call him God, Allah, Ram, Waheguru etc.,
    May waheguru ji bless the whole Humanity

      'Created by a hindu': Again, by birth guru nanak was hindu, but he never accepted that. Infact he clearly denied that. When he does not want to related to Hinduism and its rituals then there is no point he is an called a hindu!
      'His ideas': Guru nanak said, 'Jaisi main ayi khasam ki bani'. He never said the idea is his own.

    please dont take this the wrong way but sikhism is a bit confusing to me. having studied it , although sikhs dont like hearing this it does really seem like it has a mix of islam and hinduism integrated in it, which is not very surprising when you consider where he is located. its a bit too convenient to ignore. the next issue for me is that by the last guru, the religion has changed quite a bit. essentially the first guru and the last guru dont even follow the same rules. on top of all this, it doesnt seem very divine to have 'gurus' constantly be defeated and killed, especially if they are suppose to carry out some sort of divine message. i dont know, this religion does seem very nice and does seem like it truly does come from a place with good intentions. but im trying to be a bit practical here and this religion just doesnt seem like one i would follow now looking at the history of these gurus.

      Reason being, because somethings in both religions are the truth, they say the Hindu is blind, because they don't follow one god, but the Muslim is one eyed,, bcuz they do. he didn't take any influence from other religions, god sent him the message, and it may have come up with what seems like to you a mix.

    Note that the fight between Sikhs and Mughals might be more of political nature than religious. Jahangir, according to his autobiography, didn't have any problem with Sikhism until Arjan Dev made a political blunder of blessing Jahangir's rebelling son.
    Deep research in to the topic is still ongoing regarding the religious policies of the Mughal rulers today. New facts r being brought out.
    But it's generally known that common people try to put a story of "good Vs evil" , "oppressor Vs oppressed" to make their leaders matyrs and heroes in folk lore & stories. So one has to be careful while studying the conflicts in history, basically in a time today which is marred by communalism.

    You can say the same thing about Islam coming from concepts of Christianity and Islam. We all have our origins, but don't try to extract Sikhi from Islam and Hinduism. Guru Nanak spoke what God directed him to say. Prophethood isn't only limmited to the Muslim faith. God took mercy upon the Indians and sent down his Messengers (Guru Nanak) to guide humanity towards the truth and humanity of God.

    @ziyannisar 6 років тому +4

    Concept of God in Sikhism:
    MULMANTRA: THE FUNDAMENTAL CREED OF SIKHISM
    The best definition that any Sikh can give regarding the concept of God in Sikhism is to quote the Mulmantra - the fundamental creed of Sikhism, which occurs at the beginning of Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
    It is mentioned in Sri Guru Granth Sahib, volume 1 Japuji, the first verse:
    "There exists but one God, who is called The True, The Creator, Free from fear and hate, Immortal, Not begotten, Self-Existent, Great and Compassionate."
    Sikhism is a monotheistic Religion
    Sikhism enjoins its followers to practise strict monotheism. It believes in only One Supreme God who is, in the unmanifest form, called Ek Omkara.
    In the manifest form He is called Omkara and has several attributes such as:
    Kartar - The Creator
    Akal - The Eternal
    Sattanama - The Holy Name
    Sahib - The Lord
    Parvardigar - The Cherisher
    Rahim - The Merciful
    Karim - The Benevolent
    He is also called Wahe Guru - the One true God.
    Besides Sikhism being strictly monotheistic, it also does not believe in Avataravada - the doctrine of incarnation. Almighty God does not incarnate Himself in what is known as Avatara. Sikhism is also strongly against idol worship.
    Guru Nanak was influenced by Sant Kabir
    Guru Nanak was influenced by the sayings of Sant Kabir so much that several chapters of Sri Guru Granth Sahib contain couplets of Sant Kabir.
    One of the famous couplets of Sant Kabir is:
    "Dukh mein sumirana sabh karein
    Sukh mein karein na koya
    Jo sukh mein sumirana karein
    To dukh kaye hoye?"
    "In times of trouble, God is remembered by all
    But none remembers Him during peace and happiness.
    If God is remembered in good times of happiness
    Why should trouble occur?"
    Compare this with the following verse of the Qur’an:
    "When some trouble toucheth man,
    He crieth unto his Lord,
    Turning to Him in repentance:
    But when He bestoweth
    A favour upon him
    As from Himself,
    (Man) doth forget what he cried
    And prayed for before,
    And he doth set up
    Rivals unto Allah."
    [Al-Qur’an 39:8]
    The Sikh scriptures therefore emphasise monotheism and God-consciousness.

I find it to be a very beautiful religion, especially the aspect of being a warrior as well (in the case of of the Nihang Singh) which is pretty familiar to me because that has similarities with Islam. The concept of Langar is also very beautiful as it promotes selflessness and humility. I've always heard about Sikhi being south asian myself but was never familiar with the faith since there is no Sikh community in my country. Very informational video explaining the history of Sikhi.

    The story of Sikhism is told here in a very brief, nutshell format, but very well presented. One thing that even most Sikhs erroneously describe is "Kacchera", one of the five Ks as 'underpant'. It is NOT an underpant as in the Guru's time there was no Pant. It is more appropriate to call it 'breeches'. It is a baggy breeches like "trouser' that that reaches down to below knees and was the favored trouser of the horsemen and warriors that would not cause any restriction to body movement during combat. Again, Kacchera should be translated as Breeches worn by warriors of the Gurus' time.

    I would like to ask Khan Academy to take this video down as much of the information provided is incorrect especially the interpretation of holy text and linking it to other religious believes. Its offensive to Sikhs and I am sure it is also offensive to other religions. Also if Khan Academy want to make videos on History of religion, the information should stay strictly historical and should not delve into theology. If you want a video made on Sikh religion it should be done by a practising Sikh and not by anyone you have available. Again Please remove this video and if you need someone to make video on Sikhism please contact me and i can put you into touch with appropriate people.

    can I say most sikhs can't explain as correctly and as concisely as khan academy writers did. Truly we need this well researched resource, keep supporting khan academy not because they helped explain sikh religion but because they provide well researched resources, Choice of words is too good, example around 4:00 explains langar as a tradition, which is exactly what it is, a tradition that kept on going since first guru, but most sikhs when giving out interviews can't explain it in so few words as these guys did, I would say on point. Help them keep this going, we need research, we need to see the world as is, not through slimy goggles of people trying to justify their point of views.

    Trying to understand Sikhism, I ended up being confused. first Sikh guru, Guru Nanak Dev Ji, was against any kind of baptism. He famously refused his father to undergo a hindu baptism ceremony of wearing a janeyu -cotton thread, he was also against idol worship, and supersti
    tions. But Sikhism we see today is very different. They introduced sikh baptism ceremony where janeyu was replaced by Small kirpan with gatra, superstitions of holy water and sacred places made of stones, pilgrimage, everything came back. Nevertheless today Hindu religion survives because of Sikhs.
    Khalistan movement even saw militant Sikhs joining hands with radical Muslims in Pakistan, forgetting that Gurus and their families were martyred at the hands of Muslim rulers who are idolised as heroes by Muslims.

Guru Ji IS forever eternal before and after... and it’s like saying Jesus died when I fact he never, he left the human body to spiritual form. Death is for humans but god eternal and never Dies.

    Why do we keep saying its like Islam in the fact that they believe in one God.
    Should we not say in line with Abrahamic religions instead?
    Obviously Judaism predates Christianity, and Christianity predates Islam...
    Soooo common denominator?
    Abrahamic teachings?
    Wouldn't that be more correct to say? Rather than mulling over the fact that Muhameds sister in law was an early Christian, and who taught him Christian core beliefs, which then he borrowed for the implementation of his new pseudo religion?
