Answer

In Jain practice, if you accidentally drank water while wearing pooja clothes, it is generally better not to continue using those same pooja clothes for puja at that time.

If possible:

• Change into clean clothes.
• If available, wear another clean set of pooja clothes.
• Wash the used pooja clothes before using them again for puja.

Explanation

Pooja clothes are kept specially for worship and are expected to remain clean and pure. Drinking water while wearing them may be considered a break in the special purity maintained for temple or pooja use.

Since it happened by mistake, there is no need to feel guilty or fearful. Jain Dharma gives importance to awareness, purity, and intention.

Spiritual Understanding

The main thing is to maintain respect for Dev, Guru, and Dharma. If a mistake happens unknowingly, calmly correct it and continue with more mindfulness.

Takeaway

Yes, you can use those pooja clothes again, but after washing them. For the current puja, it is best to change into another clean set if possible.
