Offerings should be made in accordance with the three purities (Wyl. dag pa gsum).

  1. First, one's motivation should be pure (Tib. བསམ་པ་དག་པ་, Wyl. bsam pa dag pa).
  1. Second, the object or field of offering should be pure (Tib. ཞིང་དག་པ་, Wyl. zhing dag pa).
  1. The third purity is that of the offering substances themselves (Tib. དངོས་པ་དག་པ་, Wyl. dngos pa dag pa). An excellent offering is one of good provenance and of immaculate quality, well-prepared or well-arranged. [1]
