Question

One reform movement named for being “pure” disregarded a command in the Prem Sumarag to popularize this action. Only some Khatri men and women performed this action during the eighteenth century while most Jat women did as part of a process of “rajputization.” This action was posthumously applied to Sahib Devan in a tract titled “We are Not Hindus” during a period named for an “assembly” of men who took a similar action. (15[1]-5[1])Mata (-5[1])(*) Sundari’s followers popularized this action as part of a purge of Hindu concepts (-5[1])in response to the conversion efforts of the Arya Samaj.

For 10 points, describe this action involving a title meaning “princess” that Sikh women may take upon (10[1])initiation to the Khalsa. (10[1])■END■ (10[3])
