Sangat is a term used in various spiritual traditions, particularly in Sikhism, to refer to a community or congregation of like-minded individuals who gather for worship and spiritual growth. It emphasizes the importance of collective practice and support in one's spiritual journey, fostering a sense of belonging and shared purpose among participants. In Sikhism, sangat is often associated with the practice of sangat and pangat, where individuals sit together in equality, sharing meals and engaging in devotional activities. This communal aspect reinforces the teachings of Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, who emphasized the value of community and service to others.
