Why should water be kept in the temple?

There is a worship house in every house. Apart from the worship material, conch shells, bells, cows, sandalwood lamps, copper coins, aachaman patri, Gangajal, and water urns are kept here. In many houses, instead of a pitcher, a water urn is kept. Before worship, the idol of God is sanctified by bathing it with water and sprinkling water on the place of worship. That's why water is kept in a vessel at the place of worship.

According to the scriptures, it is believed that as Gurudev is established in the form of Garudghanta, similarly Varuna is established in the form of water. According to belief, water is worshiped as Varuna and protects the world. Putting some Tulsi leaves in the water in the house of worship purifies the water. As soon as this water becomes pure, Aachaman Yoga is formed. The deities are pleased when this water purifies the place of worship.
