Cleanliness is next to godliness
Your duty to you teachers
God created man. To become good human beings, man needs guidance. Teachers provide this guidance. Their knowledge shows us how to lead a good and successful life. So, love and respect your teachers. Obey them. Be attentive in the classroom. Play during play time, work in the study hours. Do your homework regularly. Listen to the teachers carefully. Try to understand what they say. Follow them. They should be your ideal. Walk on the path they show you. Then you will become wise and good.
God wants you to be nice to everyone. You should love your parents. You should love your teachers. You should also love your friends and neighbors. Friends and neighbors are also children of God. They are your brothers and sisters. Help them. Do not quarrel with them. Share their joys and sorrows. Serve them if they are sick. Do their shopping for them if they are old. Help them their lessons if they are weak in studies. Be polite to all. Be kind and honest with all. Love the young ones. Respect the elders. That is the way to be a good neighbor and also a good friend. A good neighbor and a good friend are dear to one and all.
God is said to be pure, holy and clean. God is really very great.
Great persons do not like to live in dirt. Arpit is known to be neat and clean, in body and dress. He takes a bath every day. He brushes his teeth daily. He pares his nails also.
His clothes are always washed and well-pressed. His hair is well-oiled and combed. His shoes are polished. He looks a smart lad. His room is also very neat and clean. He keeps his books in order. There is never a particle of dust on anything in his room.
Everyone likes him for being neat and clean at school. He is very friendly with me because I also keep my self neat and clean. In fact, both of us are known as the cleanest students in our class. Our teacher often tells other students that we are models for them.
Clean boys and girls are liked by their parents, neighbors and teachers. Everyone feels like talking to neat and clean boys.
Clean dress and clean living make a child look fresh and intelligent. Mind and heart should also be kept clean. We should think noble thoughts. We should not be selfish. Selfish makes us impure in thoughts. We should be willing to help the poor and needy. Anger, hearted, greed and quarrelsomeness make the heart dirty. Noble people who are pure outwardly and inwardly are liked everywhere. Dirty people, boys and girls are shunned by others. Moreover, dirt invites disease and ill health. So, we should try to be neat and clean.
