Hello, I am new to Sikhism, but have immersed myself a lot and do morning Nitnem and Rehras Sahib and Kirtan Sohila consistently, as well as Simran once or twice a day. I am not at the point where I am keeping Kesh, or wearing a turban - although I would like to eventually, but will take my fiance some time to accept that... but, I have been sort of wearing a Karas. I like the idea of having something that is a constant reminder of my relationship with Waheguru and a reminder to follow the path when temptations arise. I have a traditional Karas, but the smallest size I can get over my hand is very large on my wrist, as I have small wrists, and is cumbersome and awkward at work - and I work a lot with my hands (in the medical profession). I have been looking for plain, steel bangles with clasps, although the smallest ones I can find still seem a little large on me. Are opened, cuffed steel bangles acceptable? I mean, anything would be acceptable for the purpose I want it for which is to be a reminder for myself of the path I have committed to and want to adhere to, but want to get the opinions of others, or to see if others have been in similar situations and how they remedied it. Currently I wear a wood bead prayer bracelet that I have from my longstanding time as a Buddhist. Thanks! Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh -I.
