What To Be Learned About A White Turban

By Freda Watts


A white turban is same as other turbans and is utilized to protect the head and hair from dirt and pollutants. They are also known as bulle, dastar, or pagri in various places around the world. Apart from white, turbans also appear in a broad range of colors such as red, yellow, green, blue, pink, black, gray, and brown, among others. Some have patterns while some have a mixture of colors.

The primary wearers of white pagris are the Hindus, Sikhs, some Christians, and Muslims. These headdresses are utilized in almost all locations of the globe and are gaining higher popularity as time goes by. They are broadly utilized in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, various parts of Asia, eastern and northern Africa, the Middle East, parts of Europe, and, Americas.

In Afghanistan and other Muslim worlds, it has been made to be part of national dress. In such countries, where it is considered as part of the national cloth, every citizen is expected to wear it. Those who do not wear them are treated as outcasts and may be targets of attack by the community. Religious leaders are also required to wear them whether or not they are on duty.

Among the Sikhs, this headgear is treated with a lot of respect. The Sikhs believe that tying of the turban is fulfilling the holy scriptures according to their faith. They take it as a responsibility to protect and to always wear the dastar for the rest of their lives. This is especially more after undergoing the initiation ceremony that qualifies young men as Sikhs.

During the initiation, young people have some fragrance poured on the head as a requirement by their faith. The fragrance is holy and so by sprinkling it on the hair, the head is rendered holy too. Holy hair is then to be kept so by wrapping it with the pagri for the entire time the initiates still exist.

Bulles protect hair and maintain it clean from cigarette and cigarette smoke, which are viewed as pollutants by Sikhs. Initiates are also never supposed to smoke cigarette or associate very much with smokers. Since smoke is never supposed to get into contact with the head, people cover their hair with dastars. Other community members also regard pagri wearers as nicely behaved and holy individuals.

The headgear also signifies the social, political, and religious responsibilities one has been charged with. The color and style used by different social groups may vary depending on the region in question. The bulle may also be worn differently in various occasions such as parties, weddings, funerals, and other social functions. They come in varying shapes and sizes to suit various applications.

Tying of a white turban could be performed by a single individual, but with the aid of a helper, it is done more effectively and faster. It takes some knowledge, to wrap the pagri in the right way. Some people provide the necessary skills in small firms at a small cost. White dastars in specific observation are a symbol for holiness and high spirituality of wearers. By observation, they are majorly worn by aged religious individuals as contrasted to younger people who use other colors.
