Regarding Shuchirbhuta i.e. how to follow purity
The 'Brihatparashara Smriti' says: Deva-yatra in marriages and sacrifices and other matters. And in all the festivals, there is nothing that is touched or touched. When travelling, one has to take dry food and water to fill one's stomach. While visiting pilgrimage sites like Amarnath and Mansarovar, you can eat what you get to feed your stomach. On such an occasion, it is not necessary to see whether the food is forbidden and impure. Similarly, if there is a wedding, sacrifice or festival in the house, do not display your purity. On such occasions, it is natural to have a touch of food because of the gathering of many people.
More instances are described in 'Abhismriti' as follows:
Disasters such as fire, attack by soldiers, earthquake, flood or robbery and sacrifices,
Do not imagine touching and untouching on occasions like travel or festivals. The 'Buddhayana Smriti' goes on to say: Asana, shayana, yana, navamapi trinati cha. A chandala who touches a fallen man is cleansed by the wind. That is, the impurity caused by the touch of seat, bed, vehicle, boat, load of grass and the touch of Chandala and Shudra is destroyed by the mere touch of air.
The purity that is observed in the surgical room from the point of view of health is truly what the scriptures mean. But those who hold on to purity in their minds are always upset about such touch. The same are truly untouchable. The true source of mental untouchability is the mind, not the body. There are many means of removing physical untouchability. But the so-called untouchability that arises in the mind can never be removed.
Instead of conceptualizing untouchability only ethnically or emotionally, understand it well from the point of view of health science and psychology. For example, contaminated saliva juice is secreted in the mouth while performing acts such as defecation and laghushanka. For this reason, you should rinse with water after performing these actions. Wash your hands and feet and purify yourself. After visiting outside, cleansing yourself and changing your clothes as soon as you come home is also a good cleanliness. In the Muslim religion, etiquette (performing ablution) is considered extremely important. In this regard, washing and rinsing the entire face, feet and elbows five times a day is beneficial for health. Classically, rinsing eight times after meals, eight times after defecation and four times after urination is considered a sign of purity.
