Sikhs see [...] each religion as having evolved according to its specific cultural background, but all are in fact the same thing, for all humankind has but one creator and nourisher.

Cela semble simple, mais je ne trouve pas le mot

le sustentateur


Explanation:
un terme assez employé dans toutes les religions.

Ce n’est ni le Créateur, ni le sustentateur aimant de l’univers, mais une « énergie impersonnelle » immanente au monde, avec lequel elle forme une « unité cosmique »

ou encore:
Allah! Point de Dieu que Lui, le Vivant, le Sustentateur.

et:
Avec Dieu, tout change pour l’univers ! Ce n’est pas surprenant, car Dieu est non seulement le créateur mais aussi le sustentateur.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Très bonne suggestion, merci Lidija. mais "nourricier" étant plus proche de "nourisher", je vais garder cette idée.
