 | | Sikhs do not participate in any meaningless rituals, and do not worship any images, for they believe it "brings God down to the level of an object" and also diverts attention from God to the object itself. | | | Sikhs believe that humans relate to God through meditation. | | | Sikhs also believe that their faith is not the only way to God, a belief that is in sharp variance with Muslim teachings. |

| | This family includes Khalsa Sikhs who shave their heads and non-Khalsa Sikhs who do not; vegetarian and non-vegetarian Sikhs; Sikhs who utilize the name Singh and Kaur and those who do not; and Sikhs who only recognize the ten past gurus and others who follow a living guru. | | | Perhaps a lesser-known Sikh lineage is the Udasis Sikhs, ascetics with Nath ideas who claim descent from Nanak’s eldest son, Sri Chand. | | | Distinctively (and perhaps in contradistinction with other major world religions), Khalsa Sikhs may recognize non-Khalsa Sikhs as "slow adapters" (sahaj-dhari), but not necessarily as deviant aberrations. |

A Sikh is one who is a disciple of the Satguru. | | | Clearly, therefore, being a non-Amritdhari means that one, has not yet declared his total allegiance and obedience to Sahib Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji I Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji I Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as his Guru. |

| | We will always have our Shabd Guru, the Siri Guru Granth Sahib intact, as it is. But now we have English translations of Guru's words! | | | Also, remember that at the time of the original Amrit ceremony, the people had to be constantly ready to mount their horses and engage in battles! | | | If you look up in "Victory and Virtue" Ceremonies and Conduct of Sikh Dharma (on the Sikhnet Website) you will find Instruction to New Amritdhari Sikhs on page 74 which simply says to "Keep the Five Kakar's" Certain things in our noble path will never change, and should never change. |
