With a funeral ceremony called antam sanskar. Antam means ?final? in Punjabi, the language of Sikh religious texts, while sanskar is a term referring to any rite or ritual. Before the ceremony, the body is washed with water and adorned with the five articles of faith that initiated Sikhs are supposed to carry or wear at all times in life: kesh (uncut hair, which is covered by a turban), kanga (a wooden comb), kachhera (an undergarment resembling a pair of shorts), kara (an iron bracelet), and kirpan (a short sword).
