Gurmat means according to the ways of the Guru. There is no such thing as Sikhism as the Gurus and Bhagats taught of one religion and not of seperating people. Subsequent Gurus taught Sikhs to not try to convert people but make them better followers of their own faith.[1] A Sikh may practice many faiths but should never deny he is a Sikh if he takes advise from the Guru.
Gurmat under the classification of Sikhism is the world's youngest and only modern world religion. It was started by Satguru Sri Guru Nanak in the fifteenth century AD.
After the tenth Guru created the Khalsa, Sikhs are expected to embody the qualities of a "Sant-Sipāhī"—a saint-soldier which means to love God, meditate on God, keep God in the heart, feel God's nearness and also be strong, courageous and ready to fight to protect weak people from cruel injustice attackers.
