Case Study Based (Sangat, Pangat and Sikhism) Sikhism stands for equality, brotherhood, and respect for individuality. Guru Nanak Dev Ji started the traditions of ‘Sangat’ and ‘Pangat’ to promote a social wave of equality. In ‘Sangat’, people gather to meditate on God’s name, and in ‘Pangat’, people from all backgrounds sit together to share a meal.
