Note the list of purifiers: wind, fire, soma, the sun, Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Rudra. This list is made of two categories: the first four are elements and luminaries, the last three are gods. This combination is common in ancient literature and shows that purification was conceived not morally, but materially: the pure purifies by contact.
Wind carries away, fire burns, water washes, the sun dries; and hence they are the first purifiers in this practice. Let us add what the Vaiṣṇava side adds to this, and what distinguishes it. It does not deny material purification and holds to the rites of bathing; but it insists that these do not reach the cause.
Its argument was cited reading the Jābāla-darśana (4.32) and states: water washes away dirt, not the inclination to dirt; and a person who has bathed a thousand times will get dirty again the same way the thousand-and-first time. Hence its own purification is ascribed not to an element, but to hearing; and the verse of the Bhāgavatam (1.2.17) says: śṛṇvatāṃ sva-kathāḥ kṛṣṇaḥ puṇya-śravaṇa-kīrtanaḥ hṛdy antaḥ-stho hy abhadrāṇi vidhunoti suhṛt satām. Translated: “for those who hear stories of Himself, Kṛṣṇa, dwelling within the heart, shakes out what is bad — He, the well-wisher of the honest.”
Note the verb vidhunoti, “shakes out,” from dhū, “to shake”: not washing from outside, but shaking out from within, as dust is shaken from clothing.
