The principal belief in Sikhism is faith in ''Waheguru''—represented using the sacred symbol of ''{{unicode|Ek Onkar}}''. Sikhism advocates the pursuit of salvation through disciplined, personal meditation on the name and message of God. The followers of Sikhism are ordained to follow the teachings of the ten The Sikh Gurus, or enlightened leaders, as well as the holy scripture—the ''Guru Granth Sahib''—which includes the selected works of many authors from diverse socioeconomic and religious backgrounds. The text was decreed by Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth guru, as the final guru of the Khalsa Panth. Sikhism's traditions and teachings are distinctly associated with the history, society and culture of the Punjab region. Adherents of Sikhism are known as Sikhs (''students'' or ''disciples'') and number over 23 million across the world. However, most Sikhs live in the Punjab (India) in India; prior to Partition of India, millions of Sikhs lived in what is now the Punjab (Pakistan) of Pakistan.
Noahide teachings have significant problems with Sikhism, but some scholars such as Rabbi Benamozegh have raised the possibility that Sikhism could be modified to be compliant with Noahide law.
