| The third rite regarded as the most important is the amrit sanskar, the ceremony for initiation into the Khalsa. |
| The amrit that it holds symbolizes the divine consciousness, which is the true source of immortality. |
| Whether it was water or something like that or not, there was no death, no amrit, no day nor night, only apraketasalila. |
| The candidates for initiation drink some of the amrit from the same bowl, and have it sprinkled on their eyes and hair. |
| In Mysore the amrit mahal, a breed said to have been introduced by Hyder Ali for military purposes, is still kept up by the state. |
| Some devotees convinced him to join and to start taking charna amrit, the water which naturally flows from under the feet of Mata in the shrine. |
