===Sikhism===
In [[Sikhism]] God is One Entity and has no gender. He is referred to in the [[Sikh Scripture]]s by many hundreds of names.
However, some of the common names for God are:
* '''Akal Purakh''' meaning ''Timeless Primal Being''▼
* '''[[Akal]] Purakh''' meaning ''Timeless Primal Being''. "Akal" stands for 'Primal, timeless' and "Purakh" stands for 'Being'
* '''On-kar''' meaning ''Creator''
* '''[[Satnam]]''' meaning ''True Name''
* '''[[Waheguru]]''', meaning ''Wonderful Lord''
* '''Dukh Bhanjno''' meaning ''Dispeller of Pain''
* '''[[Bhagat]] Vachhal''' meaning ''Lover of His Saints''
God according to [[Guru Nanak]] is beyond full comprehension by humans and can be called by an infinite number of names thus ''"Your Names are so many, and Your Forms are endless. No one can tell how may Glorious Virtues You have."'' (SGGS page 358)▼
