The Learn tab Saathi, the in-app companion Sikhi Daily's Today screen with the shabad of the day
A little understanding. A little closer, every day.
Rooted in Gurbani. Made for everyday life. Discover a calmer way to learn ↓

A place to begin. A place to return.

Sikhi shouldn’t feel difficult to approach.

Gurbani can be difficult to understand without context. Sikh history can feel scattered across books, videos and websites. And many people grow up around Sikhi without a comfortable place to ask the questions they actually have.

Sikhi Daily brings it together.

01 / Gurbani

Understand Gurbani

Read, listen and explore meaning line by line. Make room for understanding, at your pace.

02 / Learn

Learn through stories

Explore Sikh history and principles through illustrated, interactive stories that connect what happened to what it means today.

03 / Saathi

Ask without judgement

A space for the questions that come up while learning. Curiosity is a welcome place to start.

Find your way in

One app. Different ways to go deeper.

A moment to return to

The Today screen: the shabad of the day, with share, save and ask

01 / Today

Begin with a Shabad.
Carry the meaning.

A daily invitation to pause, read and reflect. Start with Gurbani, then follow the thought wherever it takes you.

  • A Shabad to return to each day
  • Plain-language meaning and context

Explore Gurbani

Learn

Sikh history
you can step into.

Move through the lives of the Gurus, the birth of the Khalsa, Sikh principles, and Sikhs in the modern world. Each illustrated story is designed to teach meaning, not just dates.

  1. 01 Story
  2. 02 Meaning
  3. 03 Reflection
  4. 04 Application

01 / Enter the story

See the world behind it.

Historical context, one illustrated moment at a time.

Chapter 2 · Guru Amar Das Ji

An illustration of people of every rank sitting in one row, sharing langar

Before anyone could see the Guru, there was one rule for all: first sit down together in a single row, the pangat, and eat.

ਪੰਗਤ pangat: sitting in one row to eat as equals

02 / Find the meaning

Understand why it matters.

Connect the story to a principle you can live.

The meaning

Samanta · Equality

Sit and eat
as equals.

Equality is something you sit down and practise, not just something you say.

Pause and reflect

Even an emperor had to sit on the floor first. What status do you carry that you could set down?

03 / Bring it into today

Make it part of your life.

Check what stayed with you, then carry it into your day.

Check in

Why did Guru Amar Das Ji make everyone eat in pangat before meeting him?

  • So all would sit as equals first, no matter their rank, even an emperor
  • To test who could cook
  • To keep the poor away

Try today

Share a meal or a seat as an equal with someone others would place above or below you.

Illustrated stories, thoughtful questions, and room to reflect. Understanding that goes beyond memorising dates.

Meet Saathi

Questions are
part of learning.

A companion for the moments you want to understand a little more: a word, a line, or a thought that stays with you after a lesson. Ask in plain language, any time.

Saathi is a learning companion. It isn’t a religious authority or a replacement for the Guru. Its answers can be imperfect, so always return to Gurbani and trusted sources for deeper understanding.

Before you begin

A few things
you might wonder.

You don’t need to have it all figured out.
That’s a good reason to start.

Is Sikhi Daily free?

Yes. The shabad of the day, the Ang reader with meanings, Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s chapter in Learn, three Saathi questions a day, and your daily practice are all free, with no account and no ads. Patron is an optional subscription that unlocks the rest and helps keep the app free for the whole Sangat.

What is Saathi?

Saathi is a gentle companion built into the app. Ask it about the shabad you’re reading, like the meaning of a line, its history, or a word you didn’t know. It answers in plain, patient language that always points back to the Guru’s word. It’s powered by AI, so its answers can be imperfect; Gurbani and trusted sources always come first.

What does becoming a Patron unlock?

Unlimited Saathi conversations, talking to Saathi out loud, listening along with paath, and every Learn chapter, with more to come. Everything in the free experience is included, and your sewa keeps Gurbani free for everyone else.

Do I need an account?

No. Sikhi Daily works the moment you open it. No sign-up, no login, no email required.

Is my data private?

Private by design: no ads, no account, and no profile following you around. Some features (like Saathi and audio) connect to the internet to work; our privacy policy spells out exactly what that involves.

Where does the Gurbani content come from?

Gurbani text is sourced from BaniDB, an open, community-maintained database of Sikh scripture. Our English translations are adapted from BaniDB’s, using Sikh terms like Waheguru.

Who makes Sikhi Daily?

Sikhi Daily is made by WellSpring Studios, a small studio building calm, honest apps. Questions or feedback? jask@wellspringstudios.co.

Can I use Sikhi Daily if I’m new to Sikhi?

Yes. Start with a daily shabad or a Learn lesson, explore the meaning, and ask Saathi anything as it comes up. No prior knowledge needed to begin.

Is Sikhi Daily only for Sikhs?

Anyone who wants to learn about Sikhi respectfully is welcome, whether you’re discovering it for the first time, reconnecting, or deepening what you already know.
