Guru Nanak was born into a Hindu family, he then was visited by God and also disagreed with some of the Hindu beliefs. Although he disagreed and the two religions are different Sikhism evolved from Hinduism. This is one we have Hindu Punjabi's as most of the Hindu Punjabi's believe in both the 10 guru's and in Hindu gods and goddesses. I know this because my own family is like this. Therefore Sikhism evolved from Hinduism (:
Sikhs are spread accross the world in mainly in Australia, Europe, Asia, and North America.
The religion of Sikhism spread from it's place of origin when Guru Nanak travelled around the world on foot and spread the word of God.
Like any other religion people that are Sikhs went to different countries and other people found out and wanted to be Sikhs aswell :P
It spread by Christian missionaries looking for a new place to spread their religion
Sikhism as a religion is opposed to pilgrimages, therefore there is no pilgrimage. Sikhs do visits old Gurudwaras(Sikh place of worship) as it hold importance to Sikh history and thus help a Sikh to relate to its origin and development. But there is no pilgrimage in Sikhism nor there is any holiday or Holy place.
SIKHISM is the predominant faith in Punjab followed by around 65% of the populace.
The Gurdwara is the place of worship for Sikhs (Sikhism)
Guru Nanak Dev ji founded Sikhism. He is the first Sikh in the world, who is Sikh by birth. Origin of the Sikhism is same as the birth time and place of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. ( i.e. 15 April, 1469. Place: Rai Bhoi di Talwandi which is in Pakistan now. Also known as Nankana Sahib now a days.)(Note: Some people say that Sikhism is originated from Hinduism, or It is originated to protect Hindus from Mugals / others who used to attack Hindustan at that time. All these opinions are totally meaningless.)
Sikhism originated in the Punjab region of South Asia, which is now part of India and Pakistan. It was founded by Guru Nanak in the 15th century.
Hinduism never was a religion and never will be. Hinduism is a way of life. Getting up, cleansing, dressing, feeding and then work. This is what a man does regardless of ethnic background of reach, colour or religion. That is Hinduism. The religion actually is known as Sanatan meaning one with No Beginning and No Ending. Thus one cannot place a date.
As a religion Sikhism don't have any holiday or any holy place, therefore no day is more special that other. However, Sikhs celebrate the birthdays of Sikh Gurus and other important event in Sikh history every year.
