What is a Muhurta?

A Muhurta is one of the units of measurement of time in Hindu calendar. Each muhurta is further divided into 30 kalā, (1 kalā = 1.6 minutes or 96 seconds). Each kalā is further divided into 30 kāṣṭhā (1 kāṣṭhā ≈ 3.2 seconds). Muhurta is a combination of the Sanskrit root words muhu (moment/immediate) and ṛta (order). The Rig Ved III.33.5 accordingly mentions this descriptive term. Ṛta refers to the natural, yearly order of the seasons, so muhurta refers to the daily reflection of these.
