Sach Khand
Sach Khand is a term used in Sikhism to denote an individual's union with God.[1]
Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, described a hierarchy of five spiritual levels in the Japji Sahib.[1] The highest level in this hierarchy is known as the Sach Khand where the individual attains a mystical union with God.[1] Before reaching the level of Sach Khand, the individual must ascend progressively through four lower levels—starting from Dharam Khand, and progressing through Gian Khand, Saram Khand, and Karam Khand.[1]
Many Sikhs conceptualize Sach Khand not as a mystical state transcending death, but as a "heavenly abode"—a place where one's spirit goes after death.[2]
