# Daily Bath Imagine being tucked up in a cosy bed on a cold winter morning. Your alarm goes off at 6:00am, and after repeated snoozing you eventually resign yourself to waking up. As you struggle out of bed, you head for the bathroom. Turning the shower knob to deep red you expect hot water, but the initial gush of freezing cold water gives you the shock of your life! Now you are well and truly awake. As the water continues flowing, it slowly becomes warmer and soothing. Gradually your body feels cleansed and completely refreshed. By now the experience has become so pleasurable, that you don’t want to leave the shower! Five minutes easily turns into fifteen. You could stay there all day! We don’t think twice about taking our daily bath. It’s just something we do. If we didn’t, we wouldn’t really feel ready to face the day ahead. Great sages explain that just as we bathe the body in water, we should bathe our consciousness in the words of Srimad-Bhagavatam. That philosophical bath wakes you up to reality, washes away unhealthy qualities, and ultimately become a relishable and enlivening activity. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
