While learning or teaching Prabandham or Veda from overseas, either it is early mornings or nights. As one needs to participate after waking up without taking a bath, is this allowed and appropriate? Similarly, when we learn them at night around 9 p.m. we cannot maintain orthodoxy. Are there any austerities that need to be followed for learning?

Prabandham and Vedas must be learned during dawn so it is not a must to take a bath, one has to brush the teeth, and cleanse the feet, hands, and face. In the past, it was taught only during dawn. For learning during the night times, observing Madi is not a prime requirement, but learning is.
