A gurdwara (Punjabi: ਗà©à¨°à¨¦à©à¨†à¨°à¨¾, gurduÄrÄ or ਗà©à¨°à¨¦à¨µà¨¾à¨°à¨¾, gurdwÄrÄ; sometimes transliterated from Punjabi as gurudwara), meaning "the doorway to the guru", is a place of worship for Sikhs, the followers of Sikhism and also a place where weary travellers and pilgrims may rest and eat. A gurudwara is also referred to as a "Sikh temple".
Sikhism, has no room for symbolism or ritualism; Sikhs have neither idols nor altars in their Gurdwara. They have no sacraments and no priestly order.

Demonology - the demon Lilith:
"She becomes a nocturnal demon, flying about in the form of a night-owl and stealing children. She is permitted to kill all children which have been sinfully begotten, even from a lawful wife. If a child smiles during the night of the Sabbath or the New Moon, it is a sign that Lilith is playing with it. One should then strike the nose of the child three times and drive Lilith away by the prescribed rough words "
