Namdhari Sikhism is a sect within the broader Sikhism tradition, founded in the 19th century by Baba Ram Singh. It emphasizes a strict adherence to the teachings of the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture of Sikhism, and promotes a disciplined lifestyle that includes vegetarianism and abstaining from alcohol. The Namdhari community is known for its distinctive practices, such as wearing white clothing and turbans. They also believe in the continuous line of living Gurus, with Baba Ram Singh being considered the first. Namdhari Sikhs actively engage in social reform and community service, reflecting their commitment to spiritual and moral values.
