A muhurta is a period
of forty-eight minutes in traditional timekeeping, with thirty muhurtas every
day.
The Brahma Muhurta, which occurs just before dawn, is the
most auspicious time period.
The hour leading up to the Brahma Muhurta is regarded as the
least auspicious of the day.
This cycle exemplifies a trend in Indian time perception.
In most cases, a period of bad luck is followed by a rapid
reversal of fortune.
