Dreadlocks referenced in the Bible

Hair contains our DNA and Rasta elders recommend destroying any surplus hair so others can not use it. Hair is really an antenna that can receive and transmit energy. Hair is like high tension wires that transmit divine energy through the crown chakra and the inspiration from the Head Creator or Jah Rastafari. The evil indoctrination of indigenous people by the religions over five hundred years has led them to straighten and cut, dye and extend their hair, that would naturally turn to dreadlocks when grown and never cut. Natural nappy spiraling hair is magnificent and does not need to be messed with by hairdressers or combs and scissors. There are many references in the bible to the spiritual significance of dreadlocks.
