If we think to do 10 paths of japji sahib. We do 6, then we feel pressure in the stomach, so we’re to go toilet. Should we do bath before completing remaining 4 paths?

Tavleen Kaur Ji doing Path as a ritual and specific numbers is ant Gurmat. Path should be done with full understanding and slowly. Guru says
ਪੜਿ ਪੜਿ ਗਡੀ ਲਦੀਅਹਿ ਪੜਿ ਪੜਿ ਭਰੀਅਹਿ ਸਾਥ ॥ ਪੜਿ ਪੜਿ ਬੇੜੀ ਪਾਈਐ ਪੜਿ ਪੜਿ ਗਡੀਅਹਿ ਖਾਤ ॥ AGGS 467
Parr Parr Gaddi Ladheah Parr Parr Bhareah Sath || Parr Parr Berri Paeai Parr Parr Gadeah Khat ||
ਪੜੀਅਹਿ ਜੇਤੇ ਬਰਸ ਬਰਸ ਪੜੀਅਹਿ ਜੇਤੇ ਮਾਸ ॥ ਪੜੀਐ ਜੇਤੀ ਆਰਜਾ ਪੜੀਅਹਿ ਜੇਤੇ ਸਾਸ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਲੇਖੈ ਇਕ ਗਲ ਹੋਰੁ ਹਉਮੈ ਝਖਣਾ ਝਾਖ ॥੧॥
Parreah Jete Baras Baras Parreah Jete Mas || Parrea Jeti Aarja Parreah Jete Sas || Nanak Lekhai Ek Gal Hor Houmai Jhakhna Jhakh ||1||
We may read and read loads of books; we may read and study vast multitudes of books. We may read and read boat-loads of books; we may read and read and fill pits with them. We may read them year after year; we may read them many months there are. We may read them all our life; we may read them with every breath. Nanak says, only one thing is of any account, which is, getting knowledge and wisdom from them; everything else is useless babbling and idle talk in ego. That means reading Guru Granth Sahib without understanding and getting knowledge is meaningless.
