Sikhs believe in a casteless and egalitarian society, guaranteeing equal status to men and women from every walk of life.
Sikhism is a social religion. Ethics, morality, selfless service and sacrifice are the very basis of this religion.
Evolution of the spirit is not possible without righteous conduct and adherence to social morality.
Sikhs must pray for the good of all living beings irrespective of ones religion, creed or colour.
