These assumed pictures are individual artists imaginations run wild and are counter to Shabad Guru Concept which is the basis of Sikhi/Gurmatt. These in fact lead us towards the wrong path/direction...towards IDOL WORSHIP. 2. I base ALL my writings on GURBANI in the SGGS and there are ample examples/References of LAMMRREH BAALA (LONG HAIR), Long BEARDS in Sacred Gurbani. 3.
