5.58

In Sanskrit it is called kuṇḍikā; here it is called bottle (ping). It is constantly filled with water and kept on one's person to clean the hands. The Account of Buddhism Sent from the South Seas says: 'There are two kinds of kuṇḍī: those of porcelain or earthenware are for pure use, while those of copper or iron are for soiled use.'
