Respected Ashok ji,
Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh!
As per my understanding, a Sikh is a person, who lives his life in the present, as per Hukam of Akalpurakh and teachings of ever living Guru, Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
A Sikh is required to earn an honest living, remain connected with Akalpurakh all the time and share his honest earning with poor and needy. He is expected to live a truthful life, without indulging in any empty rituals & worthless religious practices. He is not expected to believe in life after death theories and is to serve the humanity, without any distinction of caste, creed and religion.
A Sikh has to be compassionate, kind, tolerant and is to love all, which could be possible only if he sees Akalpurakh in all and once he achieves that mental state, he will have friends only and no enemies.
A Sikh is to get rid of vices in the present life itself and achieve salvation (Jeevan Mukat). There is no salvation for a Sikh after death.
If you have any further questions please do ask.
Regards,
Your Brother
