gurdwara
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -God is Karta Purakh, the Creator-Being who created the spatial-temporal Universe from their own Self; the Universe is their own emanation.

Detailed explanation-2: -His immanence means He continually upholds His creation by His presence within it. Sikhism believes that God without Universe will still be God, though the Universe without God would be non-existent. This contradicts Pantheists hypothesis that God Himself would have no existence without the Universe.

Detailed explanation-3: -They believe in the oneness of creation-that Waheguru created the world and is part of this creation. He sustains the world and is responsible for everything in it. Therefore, Sikhs believe that they have a duty to respect and protect the world. There are no creation stories in Sikhism, unlike in other religions.
