why do we do Sadhana at 4am?

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam,

 

Can anybody clarify why it is best to do Sadhana between the hours of

4-7am and 4-7pm?

 

Thank You,

Please accept my dandavat pranamas.

 

According to Arcana Padati, " Every twenty-four minutes is equal to one danda.

Two dandas, or forty-eight minutes, is equal to one muhurta. In the day and the

night together, there are a total of thirty muhurtas. In the last portion of the

night, the time beginning two muhurtas before the rise of the sun up to the rise

of the sun, or one hour and thirty-six minutes before the rise of the sun, is

called arunodaya. Of these two muhurtas, the first muhurta is called the

brahma-muhurta. This brahma-muhurta is the most auspicious time for devotees

seeking after success in spiritual realization. "

Guru Maharaja told his disciples a story about when he had lived in Vrndavana. A

Bengali widow walked to the Yamuna River to take her bath every morning. And

every morning without fail she would return with a pot of water for the

Radha-Damodara pujaris to use in bathing the Deities. Prabhupada said he would

sometimes open the gate for the woman, since he also rose very early, and she

would enter and wake the pujari. " Although the Vrndavana nights are cold in the

winter, " Guruji said, " the woman never once failed to come with the water. For

this activity she will return back to Godhead. One who cannot rise early in the

morning is not very serious about spiritual life. One must rise before the

brahma-muhurta hour-that is very auspicious. And one will take the trouble to do

so if he is serious about spiritual life. "

 

 

I hope this email finds you absorbed in sweet bhajan!

Thank you very much for this very insightful explanation. I am a beginner in

Kundalini Yoga and this is very interesting to know.

 

I have heard that the period between 4pm - 7pm it is good for kundalini or

sadhana too, do you know anything about this and why?

 

Sat Nam

Sat Nam Susana

one simple explaination that Yogi Bhajan gave was that when we do our practice

4-7 AM - we'll have twice the amount of energy for the day

doing it 4-7 PM - we'll have twice the relaxation....

there is a wonderful DVD that gives alot of details pertaining to all the

medical reasons why we do our Sadhana then...

It's by Dr Siri Atma Singh Khalsa

also, check the archives, I bet there's more written there on the subject.

bountiful blessings Jiwan Shakti Kaur
