| In order to present oneself before the kami or the divinity, being washed of all defilement that is carried on oneself, the faithful must purify themselves before going to pray. This symbolic ritual is performed in the Temizu-ya, a fountain fed continuously with running water, made available at the entrance of the sacred enclosure. One purifies one`s hands and mouth, because it is these two parts of our body that we will use during a prayer: we strike in the hands to invoke the deity, and a prayer using the mouth. |
