Cleanliness is required. Bahyābhyantaraḥ-śuciḥ. If one is to advance, he has to clean himself.

According to Vedic civilization, one has to take bath thrice daily. Actually, in India they take. In your country I was also taking twice bath till I was attacked last year. So I thought that in this country, twice taking bath is not possible, so I am taking once now. But India, there are many gentlemen, high class gentlemen, they take bath thrice. Morning, and before lunch, and in the evening. Especially the Brahmins.
