Q: What is the goal of human life according to the Sikh scriptures?

A: The goal of human life is for a union with the divine being, often called salvation. This is achievable through self- surrender and a submission to God's Hukam (order). God is manifest in his creation and nature obeys his law, like-wise we too, must obey the divine law. Guru Nanak Sahib Jee stressed the uniqueness of each individual and wanted him to progress through a process of self- discipline. The discipline was three-fold: physical, moral and spiritual. The physical discipline included acts of service and charity, while leading a householder's life, the moral discipline included righteous living and rising above selfish desires, the spiritual discipline included the belief in only the One Supreme Being, (the Timeless Almighty) and the exclusion of the Pantheon of gods and goddesses, in whom they had formerly believed.
