Guest guest Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 >From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In certian sects of Hinduism, Muhurta is the selection of an auspicious date and time for performing a work. In Vedic timekeeping, Muhurta is a unit of time equal to 2 dhadiyas, or approximately 48 minutes. An important muhurta is the Brahma muhurta, which is on the 25th Nadiya or approximately two hours before sunrise. This time is recommended in all practices of yoga as most apt for meditation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhurta , narasimhaye <no_reply wrote: > > Om Cyra, just a rough explanation: > > The hours between 4am and 5am (before sunrise) onsidered auspcious > becos its when the heavens are still and Gods are at their most > receptive; kind of like cosmic thing.
