🧡 What’s in a Turban (Dastar ਦਸਤਾਰ, Pag ਪੱਗ, Pagri ਪਗੜੀ)?
History. Identity. Faith.
👳🏽 The Sikh turban is more than fabric—it’s a sacred symbol.
Every fold carries meaning. Every thread, a story. Yet, too often, it’s misunderstood or reduced to assumptions.
👳🏽♀️ For Sikhs, the turban represents commitment, resilience, justice, and belonging.
It’s not a costume or an accessory—it’s an expression of faith and identity.
This Sikh Heritage Month, let’s move beyond misconceptions and choose understanding.
🙋🏽 Awareness creates change.
