SHUDDHI (CLEANSING)
 
Now that we have received the sacred waters, it is time to symbolically cleanse our hands by offering a spoonful (uddharane) of water into the hands of the principals and by wiping the hands with reverence as we chant

apavitrah pavitrovaa sarvaavastthaam gathopivaa

yahsmareth pundareekaaksham bahyaabhyantarah shuchihi

May anything unholy become holy, may all lower tendencies depart cleansing both inside and out as we remember pundareekaaksha
