The Carthusian monks of Marienau -
get every two weeks, the hair shaved.

( R. Holzberger writes in: The alternatives of Marienau, GEO 3.1987)
"They are thorns in the world of pleasure - and not even saddened that the world does not notice the sting. Because of the Carthusian hermits have come loose from their total: your whole thinking, feeling her own depends solely on God. To him, as far as is humanly possible to approach, they are silent, almost constantly, [...]. Almost always alone, modest, diligent and committed in the strictest discipline, they expect the death. And yet they are happy and unbroken. Because they are free of any constraints - except those which they subject themselves in full freedom. "
