To Parvati on rinsing the mouth

[Guest guest]

First you pour a little water into your right hand, sip it and

swallow. You do this 3 times or 6 times depending on which puja you

are doing . After that you take a little water and pour it into your

right hand and clean your hand because it has just touched your

mouth. Then you wipe your hands with a towel or paper towel.

Swamiji always keeps a towel within arms distance so he doesn't

have to move from his asan. He also has a roll of paper towels

nearby as well.

Dear Parvati ~ thank you so much for answering my question. I felt a

bit weird about asking it, but I really wanted to know, so I very

much appreciate your candid and specific response. Jai Swamiji ~
