This is a funny reoccurrence I notice.

It's the non association with what you affirm in idea/belief and life style.

IMO,If there is 'A' problem with religion/spirituality/philosophy ,its the non-practice of your highest ideals. Spiritual or Secularly speaking.

In my own experience. I talk with people in the meditation group I sit in. And it's not a singular occurrence to find people shocked , when I have mentioned that practicing mindfulness off the cushion is where I find the most benefit, watching as if on it still. Like its revolutionary. And then I'm equally stunned.

I'm glad they sit with us, however wonder how or why people set that concentrated mind aside when they stand up

I guess all in all, not everyone that is shaving their head is a Buddhist Monk, so not everyone that has dreads has to be rasta.

What is the lifestyle of someone with dreads, in your mind, brother?
