Brahma Muhutra

There are varied opinions about exactly which hours constitute brahma Muhurta.
Some say Brahma Muhurta is a period of two muhurtas (time unit of forty-eight minutes), or about one and a half hours before dawn.
____________________________________________________
Some say Brahma Muhutra starts at 3 am and ends at 6 am.
____________________________________________________
The tradition associated with Sivananda Yoga says it begins at 4am.
The tradition of Surat Shabda Yoga includes 3am through dawn in the amritavela; “elixir” or “ambrosial” hours, as brahmamuhurta is also known. As this is the tradition into which I am initiated, this is the time span I will consider in this exploration.
____________________________________________________
In the Brahmanas , ( the collection of ancient Indian texts with commentaries on the four Vedas ) it is written , muhūrta denotes a division of time: one-thirtieth of a day, or a period of forty-eight minutes.
____________________________________________________
Brahma Muhutra is the time, when celestial beings rest and there is less THOUGH ACTIVITY in the ether and as such we can think clearly and meditate very well.
____________________________________________________
Brahma Mhutra is the time when sattva manifests itself in us.
____________________________________________________
Essentially, we are all a combination of the three gunas sattva, rajas and tamas. Brahma muhurta is the time when our sattvika content comes to the forefront.
____________________________________________________
It is the ideal time for thinking and reflection on the truths laid down in Vedanta. Rajas manifests itself after 6 a.m.
____________________________________________________
It is the time when the day’s activities begin, children have to get ready for school, mothers have to prepare food for the family and office-goers begin getting ready for work.
____________________________________________________
These mark the beginning of a cycle of frenetic activity.
____________________________________________________
It is after sundown that tamas begins to manifest itself. A time when all indulgent activities begin.
