Lucky ji, I can't tell if these are Hindu or Sikh boys or a mixture. I can see what must be some sadhus or mahants and one or two adults in what might be a Sikh style turban (maybe the turbans were different in those days. Like the women of today who seem to often were their scarfs pinned way back on their heads, with most of their hair uncovered (I guess that men would be rebuked for having so much hair exposed as I see in many Kaurs or Hindu womens' photos on youtube and in movies. the man has a see through robe on in the old photo which if he was a Sikh shows the neccessity of the underpants as one of the five 5s.

I guess the dhoti clad Hindus, sadhus and turban less Hindu mendicants no longer visit the Sarovar today? Allenwalla 01:51, 23 November 2008 (UTC)


LOL......me also thinking too that these are hindues or sikhs? Itz not difference in turban, itz hindu culture, these turbans are looking more like rajasthani style and old pundits use to wear in these style and

you know in golden temple you cannot move freely without covering your head wether you are udasi, or you are nirmala or you are sadhu. You can see a guy in a pic of group of boys also have uncovered head seems a pundit to me. even in first pic all are uncovered.

But sir today many rituals followed in golden temple is of typical bahmani style like washing the floor with Milk etc, you can see in the latest pic.(Lucky 08:14, 23 November 2008 (UTC))
