- Gurmat (Punjabi: ਗੁਰਮਤਿ (Gurmukhi); gur-mat, mat, Sanskrit mati, i.e. counsel or tenets of the Guru: more specifically, focusing the mind towards the Guru) is a term which may in its essential sense be taken to be synonymous with Sikhism itself. Etymologically, Gur means wisdom and Mat means Tenet/Belief. Generally, Gurmat is theology includes teachings of Sikh Bhagats and Sikh Gurus which is incorporated in Guru Granth Sahib. It covers doctrinal, prescriptive and directional aspects of Sikh faith and praxis. Besides the basic theological structure, doctrine and tenets derived from the teachings of Guru Nanak and his nine successors, it refers to the whole Sikh way of life both in its individual and social expressions evolved over the centuries. Guidance received by Sikhs in their day-to-day affairs from institutions established by the Gurus and by the community nurtured upon their teachings will also fall within the frame of gurmat. In any exigency, the decision to be taken by the followers must conform to gurmat in its ideological and/or conventional assumptions. (en)
- Gurmat est un mot qui est dans son sens principal un synonyme de sikhisme. Gurmat est l'amalgame de deux mots: gur pour gourou, et, mat du sanskrit: mati: conseils, principes. Littéralement gurmat signifie la doctrine du gourou. Il désigne donc la doctrine, les prescriptions et la direction de la foi sikhe. À côté de l'aspect théologique, le mot gurmat désigne aussi le style de vie des sikhs à travers les âges. (fr)

- The next pious word is Gurmat. The founder and the head of this Trust, Sant Waryam Singh Ji, preaches Gurmat philosophy and inspires us to become 'Gurmukh' by following the teachings of the Great Gurus. His preaching’s emphasize the abstinence from the worldly egos and from false notions because these pollute the human soul. The entire spiritual path is a process of spiritual transformation of human soul from 'Manmukh' to 'Gurmukh'. The teachings of the Great Gurus are for the human beings irrespective of their caste and creed. Our great Gurus blessed the downtrodden by their personal care. The Gurus imbibed a new spirit in their lives and consoled them and explained to them the spiritual realities and brought them out from their worldly illusions. The Gurus prayed to God to bless the people for their welfare and goodness, so that the people may not suffer from worldly temptations. The Gurus even paved a way towards the salvation of those human beings who were oppressed and not allowed to pray in the places of worship or religious institutions. The Gurus inspired the people to worship the omni present existence within the human body irrespective of caste and creed. (en)
- Gurmat is about liberation - liberation from the cycles of birth and death in which we chase our tail, liberation from the five urges that we worship rather than God, liberation from mythologies, which contradict the scientific knowledge we have painstakingly accumulated, liberation from male exploitation of women, religious persecution and hatred, racial injustice and oppression of human rights. The chains that bind any one of these categories slip into all of them. We love these chains. We are like prisoners that cannot cope outside of jail. To be chained is not to be Free, to despise any is to be far from Love. “The mouth of the hungry is the golak of the Guru.” Sikhism without social activism is sick. Let us all drink the medicine of the Word and Name. (en)
