CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS
Being clean is a sign of spiritual purity or goodness. Cleanliness is one of the factor that we have to practice daily. Our lifestyle has become so important that we should take care about the health as well as the wealth. Actually when wealth is lost nothing is lost, but when health is lost something is lost. There are many instances in our life where we give less importance of no time to check the situation. People likes to play outdoor activities, during this time we can realise that there is much unhygienic situations, like contact with other persons, contact with soil, drinking unclean water, sweating more etc. Advertisements do lot of job, just like dettol soap, lifebouy soap etc. These ads gives us valuable information about our cleanliness. But people give less importance to the cleaning practices. It is good being engaged in outdoor activities, so that sunlight is necessary for the synthesis of vitamin D in our body. After coming back to home it is better to take bath so that whole body can be made clean. Imagine the situation at working place or school, lot of chances to get germs inside our body. First thing is close contact with friends, using common toilets, especially using computer key board, mouse etc. give more chances to carry germs. It is said that computer keyboards in a computer lab is more dirty than a toilet. We pour water or flush after using a toilet but what about the computer lab? It is more difficult to wash a computer, but can definitely maintain the cleanliness by using cleaning solutions or vacuum cleaners. Students should practice to use hand sanitizers after using a toilet or a computer lab. Spitting in public places is very important unhygienic practice. The spitting person is in fact a killer, because he can spread diseases to many persons. Chewing gums are un avoidable item for the new generation, but after chewing it is disposed in the public places. Students in the school and colleges misuses the used chewing gums to tease others and finding happy moments. These items should be banned by the government so that public places are maintained clean. The chewing gum may the only thing which is used for edible purpose but not swallowed, infact every people know the danger part of swallowing, what a strange instance. According to Biology spitting is same to passing urine, defecation, coughing, sneezing, vomiting....etc. Now a days every people including school going students maintain the beauty of their dresses, hairs, choosing perfumes etc. But they may not be aware of carrying a hand kerchief with them. Importance of hand kerchief is so great that it become the mask of different people to resist corona virus. Earlier on wards this handkerchief is a multi-purpose material to maintain the cleanliness. People are also especially students not aware about cutting the nails properly. As these germs are not seen by our naked eyes, nails are one of the hiding place of germs which makes their way easy to eye, mouth, nose etc. and makes the entry into our body. We should be health conscious as well as beauty conscious. Cleanliness is important for mental well being also. Mental health is related to physical health. Where there is proper cleanliness of our physical body, there will be mental cleanliness also.A healthy body is probably the most significant benefit of cleanliness. Cleanliness certainly increases the perfection of work. A neat and clean nation is the dream of all citizens. Gandhiji also said that “Cleanliness is important than Independence”.
