Day 36: Cleanliness

Ablution in religion is the process of washing of part, or all the body, or possession; with intent of purification or dedication. This norm, though varying respectively, is practiced in all three Abrahamic faiths, and even in pagan religions. There is however a far more important ritual, that is the cleansing of one’s soul. It has become apparent to those who have stepped out of the dark -- a pure heart is above all earthly rituals. It cannot be washed away by mere physical contact. A pure heart comes from within -- withstanding, and even cleansing the impurities of the outside world. Nothing outside a person can defile them by going into them. Rather, it is what comes out of a person that defiles them. Do not let your root rot away, do not let the fruit of love spoil. You are a factory of faith, a refinery of love ore. Let love wash away the filt of the world, let it make you clean. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.
