Special Underwear
This was given by Guru Gobind Singh to remind his sikhs that they should control their sexual desire. They are long underwear that are very modest. Usually made from white material. This served to cover the sexual organs as well as remind sikhs to think of the opposite sex as they would family members and not objects. They are tied with a nala or draw string. This serves as another reminder that when one is untying the drawstring they are given time to think about what they are doing.
