Ashtha Prakari Puja (Eight types of Puja for Tirthankar)
1. Jal Puja: (Water)
By bathing the idol in right manner we ask; may the
impurities of our Karmas wash away from our soul.
Let us bathe the idol of Arihant with water in the form of equanimity, from the Kalash in the form of Knowledge; so that our Karmas get destroyed.
