A Gursikh is a Sikh fully devoted to the true Guru.
Guru comes from gu meaning darkness and ru meaning light
"dispels the darkness of ignorance ('gu'), and proclaims enlightenment ('ru'). It is the application of the formula to make our life excellently balanced and successful." ^[1]
Sikh Literally "learner" The follower of true Guru who lives his life according to his teachingss.
"One who calls himself a Gursikh of the True Guru, shall rise in the early morning hours and meditate on the Lord's Name." ^[2]
A Gursikh does not cut hair or trim beard. He does not take alcohol. He never bows before anyone other than Guru Granth Sahib. A Gursikh man can be identified as a person with unshorn hair, flowing beard and turban. A Gursikh may be Amritdhari or non Amritdhari, but must keep unshorn hair. He often visits Gurdwara Sahib. He is fond of doing sewa & simran.
Gursikhs are required to walk on the Guru's Path, as described by fourth master, Guru Ram Das: gurasikh meeth chalahu gur chaalee O Sikhs of the Guru, O friends, walk on the Guru's Path. Guru's path means the three concepts of Sikhism:
1) Naam Japna - Meditation on the Divine Name
2) Kirat Karna - Earning an honest living
3) Vand chhakna - Sharing your earnings with the needy
