[QUOTE="Brother Onam, post: 206487, member: 18170"] I think it's less a question of Har loving long hair and turbans and more a question of recognizing the sacredness. At the heart of most troubles on this Earth is what the author Jerry Mander called 'The Absence of the Sacred'; the forgetting the matchless preciousness of this holy world. So we go about taking things for granted, spoiling, polluting, destroying or wasting things because we view them as mundane. If we were really living a holy life, we would forever be in a spirit of gratitude and cherishing, the trees, peoples, water, seasons, birds, as [I]being[/I] Har Har.
