Bab 81: The Temple Patirtan

DON'T GO TO FAR

---------------------

I queued at number three to clean myself up before entering the temple.

However, before entering into this self-cleaning, all who will enter the temple will be clothed with a cloth or you can also say with a shawl that is tied around the waist like a belt. Kampuh is only used when we are going to worship.

This cleaning place is called Asuci Raga Sarira (Sanskrit) the place is not very wide, about three meters by two square meters. Three water channels come out from each mouth of the dragon head-shaped statue. The water that comes out makes a puddle at the bottom, there is a foothold so that we don't get into the puddle. This foothold is located right in front of every water that comes out of the mouth of this dragon head statue.

How to clean yourself by washing your face, back of the neck, ears, hands, and feet all three times. Similar to performing Wudhu but different in the prayer.
