Best Answer

The religious text of the Sikh religion is found in 'Sri Guru Granth Sahib' meaning respected , teacher, great-magnificent, sir. This is the honorable big, respectable book that is referred upon not only by Sikhs but by anyone in search of answers to life's questions, no matter how trivial a question may seem. It is so big that it takes approximately two and a half days to sing aloud and this is usually done in shifts. The correct practice is to cover your head with a scarf if you read the 'holy granth'. Sri Guru Granth Sahib contains contributions from ALL of the Sikh Gurus and other recognised enlightened persons of the day prior to the last Sikh Guru. The last Guru, Guru Gobind Singh, bestowed upon this great holy book, a living sainthood and final completion to answer all of lifes questions. The religious text of Sikhism is written in 'Gurmuki which is the name for the characters of the letters. The language of the Sikh religion is Gurbani, comprised of Gurmuki characters and created by Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikh religion. Gurbani words are also unique and or original in definition. Sri Guru Granth Sahib is commonly published in Gurbani/English/Panjabi translation. The religious text of Sikhism, (Gurbani) means 'enlightened teacher-truth-song'. The religious text are hymns which are sung aloud in prayer. In a Sikh Gurdwarra (temple) the hymns are sung aloud by a 'Gianni' (ordained Gursikh)or a 'Jatha'(group of ordained Gursikhs) referred to as Raghees, who sing 'Ragaas' which are the hymns of Gurbani religious text. These are also sung by the 'Sangat' attendees of the Gurdwarra in the presence of Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
