Why is Abhijit Muhurat considered the most auspicious time of the day?

Abhijit Muhurat is the 8th Muhurat of the day, occurring approximately 24 minutes before and 24 minutes after true local solar noon. It is blessed by Lord Vishnu and is believed to overcome almost all minor planetary doshas, making it ideal for starting new ventures, signing agreements, and performing sacred pujas.

What is Rahu Kaal and what activities should be avoided during it?

Rahu Kaal is an inauspicious period lasting approximately 90 minutes each day governed by Rahu. Classical Vedic scriptures advise against starting new commercial projects, buying gold/vehicles, signing contracts, or embarking on major travels during Rahu Kaal. Ongoing routine work or Lord Shiva worship remains unaffected.

How do Day and Night Choghadiya timings work?

Choghadiya divides the day into 8 equal parts and the night into 8 parts. The 7 types are: Amrit (Nectar - Best), Shubh (Auspicious - Good), Labh (Gain - Prosperous), Chal (Neutral - Travel), Rog (Disease - Inauspicious), Kaal (Loss - Avoid), and Udveg (Anxiety - Avoid). Amrit, Shubh, and Labh are the primary auspicious windows.
