You must have often seen the monks who shave their heads. Have you noticed, if you prune a tree, the tree focuses its energy towards the pruned area and the number of leaves that come out in that part of the tree in the next fifteen to thirty days are much more than in other parts of the tree? This happens because the tree directs its energy in the direction of the pruned area. The same thing happens in your body. If you suddenly remove your hair, you will see the energies will move in that direction. People doing certain type of sadhana want that to happen. They don’t just shave their head whenever they feel like it. They shave their hair on shivaratri, because on that day, on the amavasya day and the next day, there is an upsurge of energy in the human system, which they want to accelerate a little more. The hair is taken off on that day because there is Sadhana attached to that. If there is no Sadhana, it won’t make much of a difference. Some of you may know that sometimes, if women who have never shaved their head in their life shave their hair, they become mentally imbalanced because they are unable to handle the excessive energy in that direction. If there already is a small imbalance, it exaggerates itself. But if it is calibrated properly and the necessary Sadhana to support it is there, it works to your benefit. A spiritual seeker or a Sadhaka who is not only seeking for his spiritual wellbeing, but who is seeking to become an instrument of a larger possibility, wants to use every little support available in nature. Shaving one’s head is a part of that.
