Dear Sri Kocchappa : There is no Saasthram for UddhariNi usage or otherwise . It is kulAchAram . The right quaktity of water can be used for Aachamaneeyam by sipping only what is needed from the water held in the cupped palm from koLapAthram . For arghyam , you hold on to the KoLapAthram or Sombhu with both hands and direct the water stream . The nithya Karma and its effects will not be lessened by using UtthariNi or not . AchArya RaamAunuja was instructed into the meanings of AshtAkshari by ThirukkOshtiyUr Nambi and not Charama slOkam . There is a lot of controversy about AchArya RaamAnuja broadcasting it from the top of the Gopuram or not inspite of the Statue of RaamAnuja at the Gopuram . Our AchAryan did instruct those dear and near to him inspite of the promise made to keep these esoteric meanings just to himself . For this , he recieved the wrath of his AchAryan and soon after blessings for his magnanimity .
