Purification of one’s body by bathing before undertaking Pooja has been considered to be very important, as otherwise one can not be considered as fit or qualified to perform Pooja Vidhi. ¼ÎéQUæ (Taduktam.)

Otherwise the person is not entitled to perform regular duties like ‘Japa’ and ‘Homa’. As our body consists of nine openings or outlets, which are constantly extracting unwanted waste products, the morning bath is absolutely essential for cleansing our body before engaging ourselves in Pooja worship to God.
