Ek Onkar, often translated as “One God”, is a central concept in sikkhism. The
concept of “EK ONKAR” was given by “Shri Guru Nanak Dev Ji”. It is found at the
beginning of the sikh scripture,the Guru Granth Sahib, represents the fundamental
belief in the unity of God. “Ek” means “one”, and “Onkar refers to the “eternal
being or the divine essence.
This phrase encapsulates, the monotheistic nature of sikkhism, emphasizing the
belief in a single, formless, and all-pervasive God. It reflects the sikh belief that
there is only one creator who is present in all opf creation.
Additionally, Ek Onkar signifies the interconnectedness of all beings, highlighting
the oneness of humanity and the equality of all individuals before the divine. It
serves as a reminder to Sikhs to live in harmony with others and to recognise the
divine presence in everyone.
