How did Sikhism in India originate?

Sikhism in India was formed in Punjab, northwest India, at the beginning of16th century. Sikhs account for 2% of India's total population. They are self-respecting, stubborn and arrogant, unsmiling and lacking in sense of humor. Sikhism has a tradition of martial arts and is brave in fighting. If the Indian government had not limited the number of Sikhs serving as soldiers, the Indian army would have become a Sikh world.

It is very simple to judge whether an Indian man is a Sikh, because even in the hottest weather, Sikhs still wear thick headscarves.

Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, hopes to establish a new religion and get rid of the disputes between Hinduism and Islam. Sikhism advocates religious tolerance, opposes caste system and complicated religious rules, opposes idolatry and discrimination against women, and advocates equality, friendship and respect for labor, so it is welcomed by the lower classes.

Sikh canon forbids people to smoke; Advocate monogamy; Do not worship idols; The parishioners must wear long hair, comb their hair, wear short swords, bracelets, shorts and robes and be ready to fight at any time. Although some religious rules are not strictly enforced with the development of the times, the idea of respecting labor and protecting the weak is still deeply rooted, which deeply affects the behavior of every Sikh.

Sikhs have long been discriminated against, thinking that they are in a daze and mentally retarded by wearing hair and headscarves, especially at the hottest noon of the day. But with personal efforts and the help of friends, Sikhs can find their own jobs and safeguard their dignity with their own actions.

More than 80% Sikhs live in Punjab, India, which is the most prosperous state in India at present, and the per capita income of farmers is nearly double that of farmers in China. In the late 1960s, the Indian government launched a "green revolution" in many parts of the country, and only Punjab Province was the most successful, which was related to hardworking Sikhs.

Living in India, people have to deal with beggars often. There is a saying among beggars in India: Begging is the right given to the poor by God. Like other jobs, there is no distinction between high and low. But there are no beggars among Sikhs. Sikhs despise beggars from the bottom of their hearts and think that this is not in line with the teachings of this religion. Not only do they not engage in the "beggar industry" themselves, but they never give alms to beggars. They think beggars are cancer attached to the social organism and should be eradicated long ago. Therefore, beggars are afraid of Sikhs and never ask them for money.

Sikhs are not allowed to see their parishioners down and out. If a Sikh family goes bankrupt due to natural and man-made disasters, the Sikhs around will lend a helping hand regardless of whether they know the family or not, and will never watch them become beggars.

Sikhs believe that giving money to "one's own" is not charity, but mutual help between friends. In their religious shrine, the Golden Temple in Amritsar, northern India, people can see Sikhs living in poverty enjoying the vegetarian food provided free of charge in the temple and lying against the wall when they are full. Once, when I was discussing this issue with a Sikh named Ashe Singh, the bearded man said, "I helped him today, and maybe one day he will help me in turn. This is for everyone's good and has nothing to do with charity."

Sikhs are very United and safeguard the interests of Christians. If there are 10 shops in a street, and one of them is owned by Sikhs, although the shops are small and the goods are incomplete, Sikhs nearby still only go to this shop to buy things, not to other shops. They would rather be accused of being conservative and narrow-minded than "fat water flowing into outsiders".
