The quality of each particular life depends on the law of Karma. Karma sets the quality of a life according to how well or badly a person behaved in their previous lives.
The only way out of this cycle, which all faiths regard as painful, is to achieve a total knowledge of union with God.
Human beings spend their time in a cycle of birth, life and rebirth.
To live good life, a person should do good deeds as well as meditate.

When a Sikh wants to see God, they look both at the created world and into their own heart and soul.
Their aim is to see the divine order that God has given to everything, and through it to understand the nature of God.
Sikhs don't think it pleases God if people pay no attention to others and simply devote themselves slavishly to religion.
A Sikh serves God by serving other people everyday. By devoting their lives to service they get rid of their own ego and pride.
