I see why present spiritual person like Sri ravi shankar, shadhguru etc have long hairs ? they can cut their hair as there are many salon available in market...But In ancient times Rishi were kept hair long because there is no salon available at that times

My question is that why Modern spiritual person kept hair long ? Is there any reason why they kept their hair long ?

  • Rishis don't cut hair because for them the skull in head won't be hard like us and will become soft extremely due to intense yogic practice. If one cuts hair in that stage, any slight error during that time In head will cause Atma to leave the body instantly – Agamas Tantras Feb 03 '19 at 00:31
  • Which spiritual people are you talking about? Neo-Vedantins? Sannyasis are supposed to either shave their head (if balding) or cut the rest of their hair and keep the sikha (top-knot). – Ikshvaku Feb 03 '19 at 00:34
  • Because, hair increases one's aura and perseverance in spiritual path. Hairs are extensions of body nerves and acts like antenna for a sage while syncing with the cosmic consciousness. It also increases valor in men like lion is bravest animal has its mane full of hairs. Sikhs and Nazirite(like Samson) grow hair for the same reason that is increased strength and spirituality. –  Aug 08 '19 at 20:54
