Brahmachari are a sub-class of sadhu. They are sometimes
referred to as absolute celibates. Both sadhu and brahmachari have similar
regulations. Brahmachari wear a white dhoti (loincloth) and drape a saffron
cloth over their upper bodies. These brahmachari are generally given the
duty of serving and performing the daily ceremonies to the murti in the
temples.
