Sikhism is strictly monotheistic. Sikhs believe in one God, known as Waheguru, which translates to "Wonderful Teacher" or "Wonderful Lord."
Some key points about the Sikh concept of God:
* One God: Sikhism rejects the idea of multiple gods and goddesses.
* Formless and Timeless: Waheguru is considered to be without form (Nirankar) and beyond time (Akaal).
* All-Pervading: God is omnipresent, meaning present everywhere in the universe.
* Creator: Waheguru is the creator, sustainer, and destroyer of the universe.
* Accessible through Love and Devotion: Sikhs believe that God can be realized through love, devotion, and selfless service.
* Identical name but different meaning: A common misunderstanding stems from the word "Guru." While the word guru is used to address the 10 gurus of Sikhism, Waheguru is considered the supreme Guru.
