Sikhism: A Young and Warm Faith
As the sixth religion I encountered in India, Sikhism is indeed a "Gen Z baby" in the religious world! 👶 This 500-year-young faith radiates the most touching spirit of equality. 🕌 Core Beliefs: Holy Site: The Golden Temple in Amritsar (but discourages blind pilgrimage!)Distribution: Mainly in the Punjab regions of India and PakistanPlace of Worship: Gurdwara (Sikh temple) 📿 Glimpses Inside a Gurdwara: No idols adorn the altar—only the sacred Guru Granth Sahib scripture, draped in colorful cloth 📦. Two devotees gently wave fly-whisks 🧹 to keep the holy book spotless—a devotion that moves the heart! 🍛 The Heartwarming Free Kitchen (Langar): Feels just like a village feast 👨👩👧👦Diners eat inside while others wait outsideAll ingredients come from devotees' donations Elderly volunteers peel potatoes clumsily 🥔 (I so wanted to help but couldn't bridge the language gap! 😅) 💞 The Charm of Sikhism: Here, I witnessed faith in its purest form—not in grand temples, but in the warmth of people cooking and eating together. Perhaps this is Sikhism's most beautiful essence ✨ #Gurdwara Rewalsar Sahib#himatnagar#India#travel#travel guide#India guide#India travel
