Sikhism-the Religion of the Sikhs

Robin Ghosh

Abstract: B (2). The hymns (inspiring devotional songs) were prepared in 1430 large size printed pages which was initially prepared by the prophet preceptor in 1604 at Amritsar. In it Dr. S. Radhakrishnan says -?We find a wide range of mystical emotion, intimate expressions of the personal realisations of God and rapturous hymns of divine love? 1. It was Guru Gobind Singh who initiated in Sikhism the custom of carrying the following five as the distinguishing mark of every Sikh (i) Kesh (Long cut hair), Kangha (a comb), Kara (Iron Bracelet), Kirpan (Sword) and kuchch (shorts), the five K?s as they are called. We can call it the dress code of the Sikhs which no other religion of the world prescribes.
