Kundalini Hare Care - Bengal Hindu

In India, a Rishi is known as a wise one who coils his or her hair up on the crown of the head during the day to energize the brain cells, and then combs it down at night. A 'rishi knot' energizes your magnetic field (aura) and stimulates the pineal gland in the center of your brain.

During the day, the hair absorbs solar energy, but at night it absorbs lunar energy. Keeping the hair up during the day and down at night aids in this process. Braiding your hair at night will help your electromagnetic field balance out from the day.
