But there’s only two of us. So how should we do the observance-day ceremony?” “When there are two of you, you should do the observance-day ceremony by declaring your purity.

The senior monk should arrange his upper robe over one shoulder, squat on his heels, raise his joined palms, and say to the junior monk: Please remember me as pure.’ And he should repeat this two more times.
