Sikh Relationship Wisdom
In Sikhism, marriage is a spiritual journey where two souls merge into one, walking together toward the Divine.
The Sikh Vision of Marriage
Anand Karaj, the Sikh wedding ceremony, means "blissful union." It views marriage not as a social contract but as a spiritual journey where two souls become one in their path toward Waheguru (God).
Sikhism emphasizes complete equality between husband and wife. The Guru Granth Sahib speaks against any discrimination, including gender-based hierarchy in marriage.
