Un Gurdwara es el lugar de culto sij. Todos ellos contienen en su interior una copia del libro sagrado y sirve como un punto de encuentro para la veneración, incluyendo la recitación y el canto. Al visitar el templo Sikh de Delhi o Gurdwara Bangla Sahib estaremos antes e templo sij más importante de la ciudad de Delhi. Su estructura se distingue por su asombrosa cúpula dorada y un largo mástil utilizado en ciertos momentos para situar una bandera. Originalmente era un palacio, que era conocido como Jaisinghpura, propiedad del rash Jai Singh, que gobernó en la India en el siglo XVII. Pocos años después de que Jai Singh ordenará su construcción, fue habitado por un importante gurú sij, Har Krishan, quien durante una epidemia de cólera que asoló la ciudad de Delhi, ayudó a la gente facilitándoles agua potable de su pozo y estanque.

Gli uomini di fede Sikh indossano comunemente un turbante appuntito che serve parzialmente a coprire i loro capelli lunghi, che non sono mai tagliati nel rispetto della creazione di Dio. I Sikh osservanti inoltre non tagliano le loro barbe e molti uomini pettinano verso l'esterno i peli della faccia e li rivolgono e li rimboccano in su nei loro turbanti insieme ai loro capelli.
Il turbante è sacro per i Sikh e non è considerato un capello o copricapo. Indossare il turbante simboleggia il rispetto per Dio. Mentre negli indù il colore e la forma del turbante sta a indicare la casta di appartenenza, nei sikh sta a indicare i colori distintivi della regione di appartenenza.
Il Sikhismo è nato in India e nel Pakistan del Nord nel quindicesimo secolo ed è una delle più giovani delle religioni monoteistiche della terra. Ci sono (circa) 18 milioni di Sikh nel mondo, di cui circa 2 milioni tra l'America del Nord, l’Europa occidentale e le ex colonie britanniche.
i Sikh (i discepoli) sono i seguaci di Guru Nanak, il fondatore del cammino Sikh e ritengono che c'è un unico dio Creatore col quale si entra in comunione attraverso la meditazione.
Il sikhismo da non confondere con l’Induismo politeista, è aperto a coloro che riconoscono uguali tutti gli esseri viventi dal momento che dio trascende i confini di sesso, casta, razza.
i Sikh amano condurre la vita secondo principi morali: guadagnarsi onestamente da vivere e condividere la propria ricchezza con gli altri. Ai Sikh è proibito ogni tipo di dipendenza da sostanze, come l'alcol, tabacco e altro, in più non possono mangiare qualsiasi tipo di carne, pesce e uova; o tagliarsi i capelli. Il modo di vivere Sikh è profondamente egalitario e democratico con i suoi principi che sanciscono che tutte le persone hanno diritti civili inclusa la libertà di religione e di vita spirituale. La visione del Sikhismo sulle altre fedi e che le persone hanno il diritto di seguire il loro cammino verso Dio senza venire per questo condannati o costretti da altri.
The practice of Truth is the essence of the Shabad.
Through the Perfect Guru, the gate of salvation is found.
This village called Bhuman Shah is in the Jurisdiction of P.S. and Tehsil Dipalpur of district Okara. It is located at a distance of 24 kilometers from Dipalpur on Dipalpur-Haveli Lakha road. According to Bhai Kahan Singh Ji, Dashmesh Ji had given blessing to Bhai Bhuman, Shah that his langar would continue serving.
The shrine is built in the style of a big fort and inside this fort-like structure the Gurdwara of Baba Sri Chand, residence of Baba Bhuman Shah , the Samadh of various Mahants are located alongwith hundreds of rooms for visitors, langarkhana and the tank.
There are four big gates to enter this shrine and the walls are decorated with colourful pictures the sayings of Gurus. More than 1000 Ghumaon of agricultural land is endowed to shrine. This building is now in charge of the Evacuee Waqf Board. The present condition of the building is miserable, the walls have developed cracks and the roofs have collapsed. In case this building collapses in the time to come an invaluable treasure of art will also be destroyed with it.
Isn't she the sweetest?!

El Sijismo es una religión originaria de la India. Su creador fue Gurú Narak (1469-1538), un hindú procedente de Nankana Tahib, en el actual territorio de Pakistán. Narak estuvo toda su vida influenciado por dos religiones: la hindú y la musulmana, y después de varias peregrinaciones a los numerosos lugares de culto de ambas, decidió crear una nueva religión que acabe con los conflictos y las luchas creadas entre los fieles de ambas creencias. El Sijismo es la novena religión con más creyentes en el mundo.
Esta foto viene a raíz que el Prof. de fotoperiodismo nos mando hacer un mini reportaje sobre la religión sikh y esta foto pertenece a una serie de 16 tomas.
Pd: la gente fue muy amable y agradecidos pero también en la entrada donde hay que descalzarse me robaron las bambas son cosas que pasan pero por esta toma a mí me vale la pena ;)
The Golden Sunrise at The Golden Temple or Harimandir Sahib, Amritsar, India. I was taking the early morning pictures on the occasion of the birth anniversary of the first Guru of The Sikhs, Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji and it was time for the early morning ‘Ardaas’ or the prayer. I did not let the opportunity go away when I spotted this Gursikh standing besides the ‘Sarowar’ or the holy pond of The Golden Temple attending to the morning prayer.
Ayant poussé par pure curiosité la porte d'un Temple Sikh à Newcastle, moi et mon jeune protégé, un migrant de Gambie, avons été accueillis très chaleureusement par cet indien. Il nous a demandé de nous déchausser, de nous couvrir la tête puis nous a fait entrer dans le temple, prosterner d'un côté de l'autel, de l'autre, donné une poignée d'une mixture sucrée qu'il a fallu avaler sur le champ (haut le coeur, j'ai dù la virer dans mon sac!) puis nous a enmenés dans la cuisine/salle à manger où il voulait nous nourrir. Jamais je n'ai senti autant de gentillesse chez un être humain! Sommes resortis sidérés!
A spiritual "hub"!
Sikh man sitting on the steps of St Pauls Cathedral in Melbourne. He was on his phone to a friend or relative back in India, and was so intrigued by me trying to sneak a photo of him from a short distance away, he stopped and looked directly at me. Afterwards, he wanted to know what I was doing, and when I told him I'm just a random, amateur street photographer he insisted on saying hi to his friend or relative on the other end. It was a proud moment for this man apparently, to be interesting enough for a photographer to want to take his photo. What street photographer WOULDN'T want to take this mans photo?!!
A Sikh greeting some of the many people who turn up each day to the Golden Temple to be fed for free.
Sikhismus - Das Wort Sikh (ausgesprochen "sickh") bedeutet "Schüler" oder "Lernender". Die Sikh-Religion wurde im 15. Jahrhundert in Nordindien von Guru Nanak Dev Ji gegründet und unterscheidet sich vom Islam und Hinduismus. Der Sikhismus ist monotheistisch und betont die Gleichstellung aller Männer und Frauen. Sikhs glauben an drei Grundprinzipien; über den Namen Gottes meditieren (beten), mit ehrlichen Mitteln seinen Lebensunterhalt verdienen und die Früchte der eigenen Arbeit mit anderen teilen. Der Sikhismus lehnt Kasten- und Klassensysteme ab und betont den Dienst an der Menschheit.
