Guru Gobind Singh speaking to Baba Daya Singh said:
An Akali is one whose form is covered in blue dress, repeating Gurbar Akal and wearing Steel weapons. With a white Kach, and blue clothes, repeating Jap ji and Jap Sahib, contemplating Akal Ustati and Var Sri Bhagauti ji ki and committing them perfectly to memory. Meditating with each hair on the body and renouncing [mentally] all actions of the body. Who loves the Guru Granth, and runs away from the five thieves. Rahitnamah Bhai Daya Singh.
