Wash Hands When Entering Gurdwara
A Sink or other means of washing hands is available close to the entry of a gurdwara. It is considered disrespectful to enter a gurdwara without washing hands after touching shoes. Hands should be washed and clean before touching a kirtan pothi, a book of hymns, or gutka, a prayer book containing the required nitnem prayers, and before and after receiving karah prashad, a blessed delicacy.
