Sikhs do not believe in rituals as such, salvation is obtained by merging with God, primarily through prayer/meditation and also avoiding the 5 evils:

Kaam = lust/addiction (specifically sexual relationships outside martial bonds; although Kaam refers to relationships, in terms of addiction, intoxication of any sort is strongly forbidden)

Krodh = rage, anger (so should live with humility, modesty etc)

Lobh = greed (earning an honest living and sharing with others)

Moh = attachment (deep attachment to worldly things e.g. money, power, etc things that won't accompany you on your journey after you die)

Ahankar = ego and excessive pride (about status, beauty, talents, intelligence, charity work etc)
