A Unitary God Vibrates Universally In All Creations
Guru Nanak Dev Ji faced seemingly insurmountable obstacles in presenting the world with his spiritual revelations. The 16th century after the times of Christ were dark with ignorance. India was no exception in those days.
The Guru was born in the strict confines of a conservative Hindu family. His early life was dominated by a feudal governance that brooked no deviation from the path of Islam.
Religious strife has never been far from the land of the five rivers that quintessentially belongs to Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Perhaps this is why the Guru created an anthropomorphic path to God.
The life and teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji are Universal and Timeless. His words are as relevant 500 years from the first day that he uttered them, and our descendants will continue to abide by them for eternity. Everyone can and should be a Sikh in the true sense of the term. All traditional Sikhs can participate fully in every secular forum. This is why you find Sikhs all over the world, living in the strangest of circumstances, but true to the Living Guru.
Sikhism is essentially Indian. It sets you apart no matter which passport you hold. It brings you to the Kingdom of the Living Guru, no matter where you may reside.
Let us celebrate the Spirit of India by unflinching obedience to the Word of the Living Guru. God is within each of us, and all beings are equal.

Just a test to see if I can comment
Sikh is the one who is always learning.It is derived from the word from Punjabi "Sikhya" and Hindi word Shiksha meaning "learning". The Sikh,and so also the other human beings, are constantly learning the teachings of the Living Guru that is contained in the Holy Granth Shri Guru Granth Sahib". It contains practical and noble thoughts of all the holy men from all relegions viz Muslim to Hindu. To name a few Bhagat Kabir, Bhagat Ramdev, Baba Farid and ofcourse the teachings of the 10 Sikh Gurus starting from Guru Nanak Dev till Guru Gobind Singh
It is not easy to be a disciple. That is why Sikhism is one of the most difficult religions to practice. The BCCI and Sreesanth may have forgiven Harbhajan, but what about the Living Guru? The Akal Takht warned him when he first put down his turban and hair to sell liquor.
