      Let .us see what GURU says. EKO DHARAM DIRRAI SACH KOEE (PAGE 1188) meaning there is ONE AND ONLY UNIVERSAL REALITY, TRUTH, THE RIGHTEOUSNESS. KABIR JAHAN GIAN TEH DHARAM HAI meaning SPIRITUAL WISDOM IS THE ONLY RELIGION. SAT SANTOKH DHARAM (page 1130) meaning TRUTH, CONTENTMENT, RIGHTEOUSNESS is true religion. According to GURBANI there is ONE AND ONLY UNIVERSAL REALITY THAT WAS TRUE BEFOER BEGINNING, TRUE TODAY AND WILL BE TRUE IN THE FUTURE. I believe that all spiritual teachers only preached TRUTH. It is only latter followers distorted this truth for selfish purposes and began to divide this TRUTH into religions.

      Sikhism is not a religion it is a thought process Our religion is sach da dharam Other religions are man made that was the need of the our to help people to follow the discipline and to reach to the oneness But sad part is this that the religion was corrupted by the people of the people and for the people

      Different religion are based on rituals BUT Sikhism is lifetime of studentship to live Truthful Life which is for entire humanity. Dharam is spiritual knowledge and wisdom.
      ਕਬੀਰਾ ਜਹਾ ਗਿਆਨੁ ਤਹ ਧਰਮੁ ਹੈ ਜਹਾ ਝੂਠੁ ਤਹ ਪਾਪੁ ॥ ਜਹਾ ਲੋਭੁ ਤਹ ਕਾਲੁ ਹੈ ਜਹਾ ਖਿਮਾ ਤਹ ਆਪਿ ॥੧੫੫॥ AGGS 1372
      Kabira Jeha Giyan Teh Dharam Hai Jeha Jhuth Teh Pap || Jeha Lobh Teh Kal Hai Jeha Khima Teh Aap ||155||
      Bhagat Kabir says, where there is spiritual wisdom, there is righteousness (Dharm). Where there is falsehood, there is sin. Where there is greed, there is spiritual death. Where there is forgiveness, there is God. Bhagat Kabir is saying that spiritual wisdom is Dharam.
      ਸਰਬ ਧਰਮ ਮਹਿ ਸ੍ਰੇਸਟ ਧਰਮੁ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਕੋ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪਿ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਕਰਮੁ ॥ AGGS 266
      Sarab Dharam Meh Sresat Dharam || Har Ko Naam Jap Niramal Karam ||
      Of all religions (Dharam), the best religion (Dharam) is to maintain pure conduct according to the Virtues of the God. Because there are different religions so Guru is giving definition of Dharam in all religions including Sikhs as “Pure Conduct”, which is same in all religions.
