Cái gì mà có trên đầu
Đạo Phật thì cắt đạo Dừa thì không?

92 năm mà mọc ra 5 thước thì mỗi năm mọc chừng 5 phân thôi? Nhưng mà good idea. Khỏi tốn tiền cắt tóc và tiền mua bồ kết.Quote:
Nguyen Van Chien: the 92-year-old from Vietnam’s southern Mekong Delta region is the proud owner of five-metre-long dreadlocks, which he hasn’t cut, washed or combed for nearly 80 years.
“I believe if I cut my hair I will die. I dare not to change anything, not even combing it,” said Chien, who believes in a faith that prescribes leaving untouched what a person is born with.
“I only nurture it, cover it in a scarf to keep it dry and clean and looking nice.”
Chien, who worships nine powers and seven gods, believes it was his calling to grow his hair, which he bundles up under an orange turban.
He was required to trim it when at school, but left after third grade and decided never to cut, comb or wash it again.
Chien follows a near-obsolete faith known as “Dua”, the coconut religion, named after its founder who claimed he survived only on coconuts to retain his vitality. Dua is banned in Vietnam and categorised as a false belief.
Chien’s fifth son, Luom, 62, helps him to manage his giant locks. He too believes in the connection between hair and mortality, having seen a man pass away after trying to re-attach his hair with string.
“These things look simple but they are sacred,” said Luom.
