Let's raise funds and be bald.

Tuesday 10th Mar Head feels lighter, more exposed serotonin in the brain from sunlight. Donate and help me, raise funds and spread awareness. This is my 3rd fundraiser. It might be my last shave, until I grow a turban. - Jasveendev Singh (Jesse) Share

Tuesday 10th Mar

• Bald Head in Buddhism: Buddhist monks (both Theravada and Mahayana) often shave their heads as a sign of renunciation, humility, and the abandonment of vanity and worldly ego. It is part of the Pabbajja (going forth), a paramount step in becoming a monk. While traditional iconography sometimes shows the Buddha with a top knot, historical evidence suggests he and his followers were shaven-headed.
• Radical Hebrew Israelites (Israelite): These groups are often characterized by specific theological beliefs, including that they are the true descendants of the ancient Israelites, and sometimes hold anti-semitic views, accusing Jews of hijacking this identity. Some extremist sects (e.g., ISUPK) promote ideologies that prioritize dominance, including misogyny and control over members' appearance, and have been known to express anti-Asian sentiment.
• Skinhead/White Supremacy: The "skinhead" look refers to shaven heads, which was adopted by a white power subculture in the late 1970s, characterized by racism and sometimes extreme, violent, or xenophobic, and antisemitic, ideologies.
• "Buddhist Supremacy": This term does not align with core Buddhist teachings of non-attachment and compassion. However, in Sri Lanka, ultra-nationalist movements (e.g., Bodu Bala Sena) have used a brand of Sinhala-Buddhist nationalism that sometimes conflicts with ethnic harmony.

Statement

Tuesday 10th Mar I have been attending church and praying since my late father passed away. Sometimes we forget what is there until is gone. I met many people, with different walks of life. That have also lost their loved ones in the struggle of poverty and sickness, hence why they always sit by the door of a Sunday church. Hoping to see their wife or children walk in. If you see their prayer, you will never understand the loneliness and strength they pray to live everyday. I am not just shaving my head to show an example of strength. I am a trying to raise just $300 to see the empathy of the public. My donations will be in the community of sick patients all over aotearoa. Medications are expensive, food and gas are expensive. But does life really have a price? Let's save one another, and avoid being sinners before the reality makes you become sinners. Share
