Growing hair and beard
Dhananjay • 1/10/2017
Question
Hi Dhananjay, my humble obeisances.
Are there benefits for a brahmachari that grows his hair and beard?
I heard from the vaishnavas that hair is some type of excrement in the body and must be shaven because a brahmachari must be "neat and clean", but I really have my doubts on this statement because I feel intuitively that I should not cut my hair and beard anymore although I did it a week ago.
My best wishes.
Answer
The benefits of growing hair and beard have been addressed in detail, in past answers. It is conducive to Brahmacharya and holistic living.
