Abhijit muhurta is a midday interval around solar noon often treated as auspicious for beginning work or worship when other muhurtas are unclear. The listing is a point about twenty-four minutes before solar noon, not the full window. Astrological almanacs differ on length and use. Confirm with a trusted panchanga or temple priest.
Brahma muhurta is an early-morning window traditionally used for spiritual practice, study, or puja, ending around sunrise. This site lists a point about ninety-six minutes before sunrise as a simple marker, not the full muhurta span. Exact definitions vary by region and panchanga. Local temples and family custom remain the authority.
A later evening marker about one hour after sunset, standing in for night recitation, aarti, or rest-of-day worship in some households. There is no single pan-Hindu service at this minute. Use it as a reminder that evening practice continues after sunset. Follow your temple or family timetable.
Sunrise (suryodaya) is a solar marker used for sandhya, some vratas, and temple opening, not the name of a single required puja. The time is the calculated sunrise for the location and date. Practices at dawn differ by sampradaya and household. This row is the same kind of solar listing as sunset, not an extra named liturgy.
Sunset (suryast) is a solar marker for evening sandhya, some temple aartis, and the close of daytime vratas. It is not itself a named mandatory puja. The clock time is calculated sunset for the place and date. Evening temple programs follow local custom.
