Hazoor Sahib is an important shrine for the Sikhs for various reasons - the most important being:

This is where Guru Gobind Singh

  • - passed the Guruship to the SGGS here.
  • - ascended to his heavenly abode.
  • - ended the chain of "Human" Guruships, etc, etc.
  • - was for the first time attacked by assassins.

For these reasons the Gurdwara and locality is considered very important to Sikhs and is therefore designated a Takhat, one of five.

people assume 'ism' is an english word where it usually is generally used in a derogatory or fanatical (negative) sense, as in: colonialism, nazism, fanaticism.

i therefore prefer not to use Sikh and ism together as a word. Though ism derives from a glorius source it has fallen to the same neg. connotation as the 'Suvas tika' has in the west. So i usually change Sikhism when i come across it in articles.
