It is a continuation of question on Brahma yagyam from the previous issue. What is the speciality of the acamanam of the Brahma yagyam? Why is this done without chanting of mantras?

Brahma yagyam is found in the second prashnam (question) of the Taittiriya Aranyakam. In this, it is mentioned that acamanam must be performed three times. No mantras are mentioned in this section. In addition to this, with the performance of this acamanam, it pleases the Riks. Hence we follow this practice.
