WE BRING THE GLOBAL COMMUNITY TOGETHER

In this section we teach people to bring peace around the world with spiritualism.

Our foundation is  Sikh religion which is the  latest and greatest religion for peace

Sikh ideology considers peace at the individual, social, state, and global levels.

Sikh scripture on peace:

Sikhism does not teach total pacifism but approves of any action to promote human rights and harmony. Guru Nanak (the first Guru) wrote: No one is my enemy, No one is a foreigner, With all I am at peace, God within us renders us Incapable of hate and prejudice.

Sikhs believe that true peace is not possible when society is in pain and suffering, and that peace is not necessarily the absence of war.

Some Sikhs believe that war can sometimes be justified in response to aggression, while others believe it is never justifiable.

However, Sikhs also value non-violence.

Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism (1469-1539), is considered an apostle of peace.

He challenged oppressive Islamic invaders and Hinduism for selfish gains, and raised awareness to bring peace to India.

His hymns in the Sikh holy scripture, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib, provide insight into his approach to peace.

For example, one quote by Guru Nanak says,

"Dwell in peace in the home of your own being,

and

the Messenger of Death will not be able to touch you".

The Sikh symbol, the Khanda, also represents the importance of living peacefully.

The Khanda is made up of a double-edged sword in the center, surrounded by a circle (chakra), with a kirpan on either side.

It symbolizes union with God, and the importance of divine knowledge, action, and devotion.

Sikhism is a monotheistic religion that teaches many values, including:

Honesty

Sikhs believe in earning a living through honest, productive, and creative labor.
