Buddhists and Hindus are most welcome to join Sikhi (the ultimate Dharmic faith). We already have a lot in common.

Having trouble finding it, but I will share when I do.

I read buddhist writings, in a creation story,  where they actually eluded to a single all powerful being that they are incapable of describing. Since they are incapable they do not even try. 

I'll see if I can find it. 

Well something along these lines.

The, most likely Japanese, reference I read took it a step further to to say it all came from the indescribable One.

Why should they join. We Sikhs believe every path is right dont we. even agnostic. As everyone is free to belive in what they like.

it was an invite not an order ...chill. If you are on to a good thing is it not good manners to let others know so they can find out if they like it too?

As far as Bani is concerned, all humans are equal before the one, all "religions" are not. Sikhi isnt a "relgion" its just the universal truth, some of which is contained in "religions", and there is differently more in some than others.

Being free to believe what you like, and believing that "every path is right" are two completely different things. 

The Guru criticized the Hindus beliefs so much, but he still sacrificed himself for their freedom to believe what they want, even if its not inline with Sikhi.

Buddhism And Hinduism: The Similarities And Differences

 

The dharam of Buddha is similar to Sikhi in which both teach to kill the ego, however it is divergent in the sense that Sikhi heavily emphasizes the simran on the ONE. while the same concept isnt so clear in the modern interpretations of the Budha dharam. 

 

In regards to "Hindu-ism", (correct term Sanatana Dharma), its a blanket term used to describe an ocean of different south Asian originated beliefs. This is why when people compare Sikhi to Sanatana Dharma it really depends on which aspect of it they are talking about. Unlike Sikhi, Sanatana Dharma isnt a unified belief system. Hinduism" is so broad that you cant even really define it. It would be like saying all the abrehamic religions were one.

Just curious, how do you define religion?

"Religion" is defined in a very western, abrehamic context, and the term "Dharma" just like many other terms such as ੴ  have no adequate English counterparts.
