The Sikh Faith

[Root.GetName] is situated on the border between adherents of Hinduism and Islam. In this area marked by religious tension and differences, a man named Nanak has started to preach that there is no Hindu or Muslim, but that the truth is with God, who is neither.

Although his rejection of ancient customs has outraged devoted [Root.Religion.GetName] believers, Nanak's disregard for caste and creed has allowed his teachings to take root among the population. His disciples are known as Sikhs and are spreading this new faith rapidly throughout [Root.GetName].

To preserve the knowledge and hymns of past gurus, Arjan has begun to compile a volume known as the Adi Granth.

Guru Har Krishan

The body of Guru Har Rai passed on, leaving a very young successor to assume the mantle.

Initially a reclusive man, he has risen to the occasion and proven to be a determined leader. Despite his own rejection of rituals and ceremonial practices, he has taken on the task of safeguarding not only the religion of his own followers, but of Hindus who flee to our lands from persecution.

Guru Gobind Singh

With the death of Tegh Bahadur, Sikhs have once again had to face hostility from their political and religious enemies. His son, Gobind Rai, is determined to unite the Sikhs and gather those who are willing to give their lives for their Guru.
