'''Sikhism''' is a [[Dharmic religion]], based on [[Hinduism]] and [[Islam]]. It was founded by [[Guru Nanak]] in the 16th century in the [[Punjab]] district of what is now [[India]] and [[Pakistan]] and is based on his teachings and those of the 9 Sikh gurus who followed him.
Sikhism could be viewed as a [[monotheistic]] religion, though not in the Western sense, as it purports to convey an impersonal universal truth to which humans must strive to return to, rather than an actual being to whom humans owe obedience. It stresses the importance of doing good actions rather than merely carrying out rituals. <ref>http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/sikhism/</ref>
Followers of Sikhism are called [[Sikhs]].
