Guru Nanak is the founder of Sikhism and one of the greatest religious innovators of all time. Guru Nanak believed in one omnipresent, formless God. Guru Nanak Dev Ji has said that God is One (Ik Onkar), I am not a Hindu or a Muslim, but a follower of God. He stresses one thing very clearly: There is only one Giver, and we must never forget Him.

Guru Nanak's birthday is celebrated by Sikhs on 14 April according to the Nanakshahi calendar but Vaisakhi or the Sikh New Year is also celebrated on the same day. The philosophy of Sikhism is meditation and devotion to the Creator, true living and service to humanity. Sikhs are meant to uphold the values of honesty, compassion, generosity, humility, integrity, service and spirituality on a daily basis.

According to the Bhai Bala Janmasakhi, Guru Nanak was born on the full moon of the Indian lunar month of Kartik. Sikhs have been celebrating the Gurupurab of Guru Nanak around November for this reason and this is how it has been incorporated into Sikh traditions.

Nanak ji believed that the sacred duty of humanity is to serve others selflessly.

गुरु नानक हिन्दी में पढ़ें

गुरु नानक सिख धर्म के संस्थापक हैं और अब तक के सबसे महान धार्मिक अन्वेषकों में से एक हैं। गुरु नानक एक सर्वव्यापी, निराकार ईश्वर में विश्वास करते हैं। सिख आमतौर पर भगवान, वाहेगुरु (वा-हे-गुरु) कहते हैं। गुर नानक देव जी ने कहा है कि ईश्वर एक है (इक ओंकार), "मैं हिंदू या मुसलमान नहीं हूं, बल्कि ईश्वर का अनुयायी हूं"। वे एक बात पर बहुत स्पष्ट रूप से जोर देते हैं: देने वाला एक ही होता है, और हमें उसे कभी नहीं भूलना चाहिए।
