Then a hundred and eight bathed youths in white, bath-attendants with full golden pitchers, presented themselves. Having seated himself on a comfortable seat, having put on a light garment, he bathed in waters mixed with sandalwood, consecrated with mantras; rubbed with an astringent [paste] by strong, well-trained [attendants], bathed with fragrant and sweet-smelling water.

The bathing is not merely bodily: the waters are "abhimantritaiḥ", consecrated with mantras. The number one hundred and eight is sacred, marking the fullness of the rite. It is telling that even care for the body in the righteous is clothed in the sacred word: outer purity is joined to inward purity. The verse teaches that in a pious order there is no realm cut off from the holy: even bathing is performed with mantra, and bodily care becomes part of the rite; thus the whole life of the righteous is sanctified by turning to the sacred.
