It is one of the five kakars or 5Ks — external articles of faith — that identify a Sikh as dedicated to their religious order. The kara was instituted by the tenth Sikh guru Gobind Singh at the Baisakhi Amrit Sanskar in 1699. Guru Gobind Singh Ji explained:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe does not recognize anyone else except me, not even the bestowal of charities, performance of merciful acts, austerities and restraint on pilgrim-stations; the perfect light of the Lord illuminates his heart, then consider him as the immaculate Khalsa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kara is to constantly remind the Sikh disciple to do God's work, a constant reminder of the Sikh's mission on this earth and that he or she must carry out righteous and true deeds and actions, keeping with the advice given by the Guru. The Kara is a symbol of unbreakable attachment and commitment to God. It is in the shape of a circle which has no beginning and no end, like the eternal nature of God. It is also a symbol of the Sikh brotherhood. As the Sikhs' holy text the Guru Granth Sahib says \"In the tenth month, you were made into a human being, O my merchant friend, and you were given your allotted time to perform good deeds.\" Similarly, Bhagat Kabir reminds the Sikh to always keep one's consciousness with God: \"With your hands and feet, do all your work, but let your consciousness remain with the Immaculate Lord.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe basic kara is a simple unadorned steel bracelet, but other forms exist. It was historically used like a knuckle-duster for hand-to-hand combat. Battlefield variations include kara with spikes or sharp edges. Sikh soldiers of the British Indian army would settle disputes by competing in a form of boxing known as loh-musti (lit. iron fist) with a kara on one hand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrilliant finish and very decorative. Ideal gift item for loved ones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eP.S.: Colour of item may slightly vary due to camera flash and light conditions. Some kara may have negligible small black grinding mark on the kara joint. This is always seen on all kara as most of the Kara making\/shaping work is done by hands. However, this do not affect the quality\/look of kara.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note size may vary plus minus 1mm due to measurement variability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note there will be an additional postage charges payable by buyer incase of swap or exchange due to size.
