Water symbolizes purity in many spiritual traditions, including Buddhism.

Splashing or washing others with water is a way to symbolically help them wash away the past and starting afresh, to transfer merit or good karma to them, and to express joy and fun.

On many special occasions in Buddhist tradition it is common for people to wash Buddha statues, to wash the hands of elders, and to sprinkle or splash water on other people in a joyful manner.
