Is Sikhism a Sanskrit or Gurmukhi word?
I am not sure but i think SIKHISM in not a word. The word is SIKHI. SIKHI SIKHIA GUR VICHAR the spiritual philosophy contained in SGGSJI. may be some explain better.
Please note that Sikhism is a English word. Neither Punjabi nor Sanskrit.
In Gurbani word Sikh or Sikhi have been used.
ਗੁਰ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਕਾ ਜੋ ਸਿਖੁ ਅਖਾਏ ਸੁ ਭਲਕੇ ਉਠਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਵੈ ॥ – 305
We should also be clear that Punjabi is much older than 5000 years. Much older than most of languages being used in India. Many of them have got evolved from Punjabi.
