Do we have any mantra for purifying flowers that are bought from vendors as we are unsure of their acaram or can we purify the flowers by sprinkling waters and then offer them to Perumal?

It is considered special if we offer flowers grown at our homes or pluck flowers from other places than buying them outside.

Buying flowers for money from a shop is called krayakreetam, an indifferent act. We can purify the store-bought flowers by chanting ‘bhuH bhuvaH suvaH’ or by chanting Tiruvashtakshara mantra and sprinkling little water only as there is a rule that lots of water should not be sprinkled on flowers.
