"Hear you all, I say the truth, He who loves alone attains God"

( Tenth Nanak-Dasam Granth)

Sikhi stresses that without love the journey cannot begin, our traditions, practices are empty and useless. There are countless examples in the Siri Guru Granth Sahib of what "to love "is, it is an action, a verb:

"Listen my heart, Let thy love be that of the lotus for the pool, though the ripples shake the lotus and torment it, it flowerth and loveth even more the waters.
