Of all the religions the best one is the one that brings you closer to God. Umm let me rephrase that.

Of all the religions the best is the one that ensures you realise that God and you are not seperate, and that you and the rest of the world are not seperate either.

For me that is Sikhi, for others it will be something else.

"believe in the God who believes in you" I have no problem with this statement. I believe that Lord Shiva resides in me and everything therefore Lord Shiva believes in me and Lord Shiva is everyone. I have to say I am not sure if a guru is an absolute for enlightenment. The Buddha, St. Augustine and St. Francis enlightened men all but did not have conscious gurus but in altered states of consciousness who knows?

Maybe the were born enlightened aka brought enlightenment with them but realized it later? vs unenlightened humans born lost, need Guru to be saved. Gurbani does say " Nigure ka hai nao bura" Name of nigura is bura/bad.
