About Choghadiya in Varanasi
What is Choghadiya?
Choghadiya is a Vedic timing system that divides the day and night into 8 equal segments (muhurtas). Each is classified as favorable (Amrit, Shubh, Labh, Char) or unfavorable (Udveg, Kal, Rog) for starting new activities.
Which Choghadiya is good?
Amrit is the most auspicious — ideal for any important new start. Shubh is excellent for ceremonies and finance. Labh favors business and learning. Char is good for travel. Udveg, Kal, and Rog are generally avoided for new starts.
Why do times differ from other sites for Varanasi?
We compute Choghadiya from the actual astronomical sunrise and sunset for Varanasi (lat 25.317°, lon 83.010°), dividing day and night into 8 equal parts. Times vary by city because every location has unique sunrise and sunset times.
