Summing up
All in Good Faith
The Sikh view of interfaith understanding and cooperation emphasizes that God is the fountainhead of love and understanding: that He pervades all creation and all act according to His will: that all faiths are God's creation: and that conflict is caused by ignorance and hypocrisy. The Sikh religion lays down tolerance and love of humanity as fundamental principles. Rite and ceremony are only incidental and open to adaptation.
God created us all and fulfils Himself through our actions. Let us act so we are worthy of His love. Let us open our hearts; let us learn about each other; let us work to open the closed one-religion societies to free worship by others; let us work to resolve religious conflicts, wherever they might exist, in an amicable manner and not let greed make religion its instrument. God gave us the various faiths. Let us, of different faiths, join hands and together glorify Him and His creation. Let us, together learn to appreciate the mosaic of beliefs God has given us and rejoice in His Will. Let us, as Siri Guru Granth Sahib has taught us, walk together in close embrace as brothers.
