A new method is developed to define pure states for many-body systems with spontaneous symmetry breaking. The advantage of the method is in the use of solely the standard thermodynamic limit, as compared to the Bogolubov method of infinitesimal external sources which invokes two limiting procedures: the standard thermodynamic limit and the elimination of external sources. The general conditions for obtaining pure states are formulated. When these conditions do not hold mixed states appear. The method is illustrated by calculations for two simple models.
