High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Five Ks, or panj kakaar/kakke, are five articles of faith that baptized Khalsa Sikhs wear at all times at the command of the tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh who so ordered at the Baisakhi Amrit Sanchar in 1699. The Five Ks are not just symbols but Articles of Faith which collectively form the external identity and the Khalsa devotee's commitment to the Sikh Rehni (Way of Life). The Sikhs who don all the Five Ks are known as Amritdhari (having participated in the Amrit Sanchar ceremony), while the Sikhs who have not donned all the Five Ks are known as Sahajdhari. The Kesh or unshorn long hair is an indispensable part of the human body. A Kangha is a small wooden comb that Sikhs use twice a day. The Kara is a steel circle to symbolize life as never ending. The Kachera symbolises self-respect, and always reminds the wearer of mental control over lust, one of the Five Evils in Sikh philosophy. The Kirpan is a short dagger which symbolizes a Sikh's duty to come to the defence of those in peril.
