Flowers are sanctified for the arcana of Śrī Bhagavān by sprinkling candana or Ganges water on them, while chanting the puṣpaśuddhi-mantra:
puṣpe puṣpe mahā-puṣpe supuṣpe puṣpa-sambhave
puṣpa-cayāvakīrṇe ca huṃ phaṭ svāhā“O flowers, O great and auspicious flowers that have appeared from budding creepers, may you be purified.”
