Do Buddhas and Paccekabuddhas completely shave their hair?
Is the topknot hairstyle in pictures and statues accurate?
Do only Disciples have to shave their hair completely?
Which picture do you think looks closer to what a Buddha would look like?
I believe all Buddhas are way taller than others.
There are suttas where people mistaken Ven. mahakassapa as the Buddha. It means that the Buddha looks like the rest of the monks.
Of course, to fit in the marks of great person, the commentaries say that the hair part is the real body, the bald head is psychic projection.
At least this is what I heard. I didn’t check the commentaries.
