people sit in the Tharwar Sahib
In a Gurdwara people sit while facing Shri Guru Granth Sahib.
Even though Sikhism promotes equality, male and females sit separately in the Gurdwara as most people feel comfortable sitting with their own gender. Also, during Gurbani lust (one of the five 'evils') is kept out of the way of prayers, meditation and hymns.
The Diwan hall is the prayer hall in the Gurdwara. Men and Women sit separately and children can sit on either side.
The Gurdwara in the Sikh religion is a place of worship for the Skihs. However, all different types of people are allowed into the Gurdwara to worship.
Sikhs go to gurdwara having their head covered either with a turban or a handkerchief.
dah! they pray.

In the gurdwara it is under a gold dome. It is on a large pillow which is on a sort of stand. people then bring fancy covers, to show how they care for it. :D xxx
Sitting on the floor is an expression of humility before the Guru. Furthermore, it also makes people feel equal and allows each person to choose a place suitable for him/her. While sitting on the floor, one can enjoy Kirtan with greater concentration than while sitting in chairs or on benches. It needs only a little training to be able to sit comfortably on the floor without being tired. A common problem with sitting on the floor is caused by skintight pants, which are not supposed to be worn in a Gurdwara, anyway. If a person has a medical problem and cannot sit without support for his back, there is no objection for his/her sitting by the wall of the Gurdwara. However, in practice it has been found that most of the people want to sit there for the sake of comfort and convenience, which needs to be discouraged. It is, therefore, suggested, that the people having a medical problem may be provided with a speaker in a separate room other than the Sangat hall. They may sit there with some support to overcome their medical handicap. In the Gurdwara we are supposed to be attentive and responsive as a student is supposed to be in his classroom while his teacher is teaching.
gurdwara
Not only Hindu temple and a Sikh gurdwara are rather all the religious places where people gather to remember the supreme power or discuss issues regarding welfare of mankind or spread knowledge for the welfare of others with a selfless spirit are similar as they all are the sources of welfare and selfless services. A temple or gurdwara is basically a name given to the place where people get together and have their peace of mind. So all the places meeting these conditions are religious places and are thus similar.
