Most people in the west who wear the turban are [[Sikh]]s. All Sikhs, but particularly male Singhs are required to don the [[Dastaar]] due to the pronouncement in 1699 by the tenth Sikh master [[Guru Gobind Singh]]. Dastaar, is the native [[Punjabi]] term used to refer to this headdress. Even 300 years on, it is in compliance to the [[Hukam]] (or order) of this supreme Sikh leader that all Sikhs today wear the dastaar. It is in honour and obedience to this one person! The Sikh prime minister of [[India]], [[Dr Manmohan Singh]], displays his sky blue trademark turban out of respect for the [[Sikh Guru]]; the famous record breaking, 95-year-old marathon runner, [[Fauja Singh]] proudly wears his dastaar in honour of the tenth Sikh teacher; [[Bhagat Puran Singh]] the humble humanist and philanthropist used to don a simple turban in respect of the Sikh master. Why do the Sikhs go to all this trouble so many years after the diktat?

====General Articles====


The dastaar comes in many different colours and styles and to the keen eye, each turban is different. Some are simple but regal; others may be bright and sporty;  yet others may be stylish and extravagant – each one has it own special and unique statement. Every morning, most Sikh man and many Sikh women, spend some 5 to 20 minutes to comb their long hair and then carefully handcraft the link to their Gurus – a daily reminder of their heritage and its responsibilities. From the simple 4 to 8 metres of plain coloured cloth emanates a signal. The person is instantly elevated and recognised as different. The messages emanating from this simple piece of coloured cloth tied on the head can be so varied and so different depending on the creator of the garment. However, the reason and purpose behind this simple religious garment is extremely serious. For someone who has no clue about Sikh history and tradition, what follows will be a revelation and a real eye opener – a total surprise.
