Ghati and Vighati

[Guest guest]

Wish to add two cents from my side. Time division

followed, as per our ancient texts, was as follows:

1 day (earlier considered as sunrise to sunrise, now

normally taken as 24 hours)= 60 Ghati

1 Ghati = 60 Vighati

1 Vighati = 60 Lipta

1 Liptas = 60 Viliptas

1 Vilipta = 60 Pala

1 Pala = 60 Vipalas

 

This figure (60x60x60x60x60x60) gives a result of

46656000000 Vipalas per day.

 

Compare this with the current time division of 24 hrs

per day,each hour being equal to 60 minutes and each

minute being equal to 60 seconds gives a result of

86400 seconds only per day!!

 

Our sages were really great.

 

Best wishes,

Amitabh
