No... A god is a supernatural, superhuman being or spirit who is assumed to have power over nature and/or human affairs.

A guru is an extremely wise or influential teacher, from the name for a Hindu spiritual teacher.

What are important qualities in a master or guru?

In Sikhism "Guru" is seen as somebody who instruct the Sikh (disciple) towards the God.Sikhs consider God's word as their Guru and therefore, the Sikh Holy Scripture which contains the teachings of Sikh Gurus and Sikh Bhagats is the Final and eternal Guru of Sikhs. Furthermore, since "Guru" is God's word. So there is essentially no difference between Guru and God. Whatever qualities God have, the same qualities Guru have.

Who is the living God of the Sikhs?

The Sikhs Tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh, passed on the Guruship to The Guru Granth Sahib Ji, or their Holy Scripture. Some people see their Scripture merely as a 'Book' but to a Sikh, The Guru Granth Sahib is considered as a Living Guru. Some people also see that although Sikhs do not believe in Idol worship, they think that worshiping to a 'Book' is contradictory. According to a Sikh, when the the Gurus passed the Guruship or Guru Gaddi to one-another over time, Guru Nanak Dev Ji came in the form of the next Gurus. Guru Nanak has come in the form of Guru Granth Sahib Ji or prayers/Gurbani. Sikhs believe in One God, some people call God as Allah, Ram and other names, but those names are all pointing to One God. Each religion doesn't have different Gods but it is the same God. Also there are ELEVEN Gurus of the Sikh faith and not only ten. Guru Granth sahib is the last Guru of the Sikhs for Eternity. P.S the Guru Granth Sahib is not only for Sikhs but for the rest of humanity. Guru Granth Sahib Ji is a Spiritual Guide for Humanity.
