Your hair is part of the problem

I really get his point

in todays world with mental health issues on the rise

things like vanity, fomo, so many options are part of what make people unhappy

although i also really do enjoy my hair and clothing styles and such it's imo part of the fun of a colourful life

 

but i think it would be great for basically everyone to go into a monestary or something like that for a year and this whole year don't worry about clothing, about hairstyles about none of that and see how it feels.

Not gonna lie but there were moments in my life where I wanted to chop off my long locks. 

I like my thick dark black hair but sometimes it feels like a burden on my head. 

 

I'm not sure if there is any spiritual significance to going bald like the monks do, but it seems to lighten the load that you have to unnecessarily carry around. :D

And this meme is kinda relatable.

I mean he's right, the less you have, the less you have to care for, but that's just part of the game we're playing. He's playing the monk game, we're playing the social game. It can be great fun to worry about hair and clothesxD just don't overdo it

It's easy to be celibate when you're so hairy chicks can't even find your dick :D

what to fight the hair loss or to lose the hair?

 

 

 

 

what's funny is when i had awakenings/or near awakenings i came out of them playing with my hair

first went through hell, then came bliss then i was pondering the universe while playing with my hair which was a lot of fun.

now playing with my hair kind of reminds me of enlightenment and such

Hair is beautiful. I've been especially interested in the special qualities of long hair.

There are many stories and instances where it is associated with strength, devotion, intuition, patience. 

The first time I shaved my head I did because I wanted to break some of my attachment to it and it actually did a little.

He makes good points about not having hair, but what's the point of shaving eyebrows lol ? 

Anyways... I've noticed from my own experience that shaving hair somehow lowers the sense of pride, I think that's the real reason monks shave their hair. Also noticed that cutting hair can feel like dropping a lot of the past and be somewhat liberating and gives a feeling of fresh start.

But other traditions say the opposite, I think in christianity it is sayed somewhere not to cut hair and leave them grow. In my experience long hair gives a certain sense of balance somehow.

So yeah, lots of different opinions like always ?
