My opinion, but growing a beard and dressing a certain way is of course based on ego?

[NagaMahant]

@AshBlue1989 Of course, not growing a beard and dressing a certain way is also ego. So what's your point? When I come to the West I should shave and wear trousers?

Hmmm...im extremely interested in Yoga,Hinduism,the life of the Sadhu etc...but I really dont think this is going change the minds of the sceptics who thing that hippies go to India,smoke too much ganga and talk absolute gobshite!...maybe i need to watch again...

[NagaMahant]

Talk like this isn't intended for the general public, and neither to change anyone's minds about anything. It's another angle of looking at things for people who have curiosity about the "other."

Okay, I've done the acid, taken the mushrooms and smoke the weed. Don't do it any more, just don't need it. I actually get a bit fed up with this stuff as I don't see there is really anything behind it.

Just enjoy life, be a good person, be good to others, do the right things and just be real and not a fake. You got that down, you got it made.

@ericc72

Well, that depends on what you seek in life now doesn't it. Some wish to see behind the infinite layers of the veil, others wish to be here for a while longer...

@AshBlue1989 it means we dont get into the ritualistic routine of haircuts and shaving we allow for the natural to happen to our bodies

[patrickttierney]

@NagaMahant No but it seems like you are smart enough to realize that you adopted another cultures costume and religious views.

@AshBlue1989

I think when one appreciates what it is to be human, and developing a sense of respect for nature/science... then one is more likely to grow a beard/long hair.

[kirkwill8806]

@AshBlue1989 Actually doing those things is supposed to an observance of negation of ego (ie long unkempt hair)... But yeah, to us, it's just a 'style'.. how 'gay'

[omsatya]

@ericc72 I am a Hindu believer of Shiva. And I believe the same as you and many hindu do. If you do good in your life whether hindu, christian etc... you will go to heaven and have pure bliss.
