Sikhism underlying values

The Sikhs must believe in the following values:

#Equality: All humans are equal before God – No discrimination is allowed on the basis of caste, race, sex, creed, origin, color, education, status, wealth, etc. The principles of universal equality and brotherhood are important pillars of Sikhism.
#God’s spirit: Although all living beings including plants, minerals and animals have been created by God, only the human being contains God's Spirit which is capable of becoming a Gurmukh.
#Personal right: Every person has a right to life but this right is restricted and has certain duties attached. Simple living is essential. A Sikh is expected to rise early, meditate and pray, consume simple food and perform an honest day's work, carry out duties for your family, enjoy life and always be positive, be charitable and support the needy, etc.
#Actions count: Salvation is obtained by one’s actions – Good deeds, remembrance of God – Naam Simran, Kirtan, etc
#Living a family life: Encouraged to live as a family unit to provide and nurture children.
#Sharing: It is encouraged to share and give to charity 10 percent of one’s net earnings.
#Accept God’s will: Develop your personality so that you recognize happy events and miserable events as one – the will of God causes them.
#The four fruits of life: Truth, contentment, contemplation and Naam, (in the name of God).
