ACHAMANAM

The Achamanam must be performed facing the east or north. It should not be done facing the west or south. Leaving out the thumb and the forefinger, the other three fingers must be bent a little and then a small space for keeping is found in the inner hand. Water should be poured there and sipped thrice uttering the three mantras in succession. Then the hand should be washed twice. If there is pavitra in the second finger, it should be removed at the time of Achamana and worn again after Achamana.
