Why Ppl say that Sikhism has Hindu roots?

[Nadeem]

Guru Nanak’s teachings were written down in a series of verses. These verses make up the central teachings of the Sikh sacred scriptures, called the Adi Granth. The core teaching of Sikhism is one truth: that God is one God and is behind and present in all of creation, particularly in each human soul. God can be directly apprehended by an individual by examining his or her soul; this examination is carried out by meditating on the name of God. There is no need of any intermediary function, such as rituals, priests, fasting, churches, mosques, or anything else. All other gods are human particularizations of the one God, that is, they particularize one aspect of God. So all religions are both legitimate and illegitimate.

well any propaganda sites like khalistan.com are not going to tell u much.

what i would recommend is read siri guru granth sahib, japji and other religious books and make ur own judgement. They are available online. www.sikhnet.com is example.

why not make one’s own judgement by studying scripture in stead of relying some political person’s commentary.

There have certain similarities in social practices. For example, when guru angad dev ji married his daughter to a Hindu, guruji did not bother the convert him.
