Cleanliness is essential for making advancement in spiritual life. There are two kinds of cleanliness: external and internal. External cleanliness means taking a bath, but for internal cleanliness one has to think of Krishna always and chant Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare.

If someone is shaving with a straight edge razor and they are a little careless, they can easily cut themselves.

Maybe in a future life we will get a chance. Nothing is lost is in this endeavour.
