Sikhism is over five centuries old and is followed by over 20 million people worldwide—making it the fifth largest religion in the world. Despite this, it rarely gets any attention here in America, even though there is an estimated 78,000 Sikh adults living here, in America. Sikhism is often described as a mixture of Islam and Hinduism, because it shares many similar traits to both, but many things also make it unique to both religions. Sikhism began over five hundred years ago in present-day Pakistan, in the Punjab region, with Guru Nanak, the first of ten gurus who would teach their philosophy and fundamentals to millions.

Of them, the majority were illiterate or semi-literate from farming or military backgrounds. They left minimal…

Indian culture. 4- Collectivist culture: The Indian culture in general considered a mid-to low individualism, whereas the Sikh culture, as I observed, it is noticeably a high collectivist culture.
