Thread on Calculation of time as per Surya Sidhant

Surya Sidhant is ancient science of Astronomy which is kept by Sun himself, was described to Maya by Partakes of Sun's nature after his penance for enquiring about this in the end of Krita Yuga

It was compiled many times
1/n

Types of time two

1. Continues and endless - destroyes all animate and inanimate things (cause of creation and preservation)

2. Can be Known - Two types

MURTA (measurable) begins with Prana=4 seconds

AMURTA (immeasurable)begins with Truti=1/33750th part of second

2/n

6 Prana = Pala

6 Pala = Ghatika

60 Ghatika = Nakshatra Ahoratra (a side real Day and Night)

Months:-

30 Nakshatra Ahoratra = Nakshatra Masa

30 Savana Day(terrestrial day from sun-rise to sun-rise) = Savana month

30 Lunar day = Lunar month

30 Solar day = Solar month

3/n

12 Solar months = Solar year = Day of Gods = Ahoratra

360 Ahoratra = Year of Gods

12000 years of Gods = Chaturyuga
(including Sandhya and Sansandhya 4320000 Solar years)

71 Great Yuga = Manvantar

After end of one Manvantar
(Sandhi = 1728000 Solar years)

4/n

14 Manvantar (including their 14 Sandhis + 1 Sandhi) = Kalpa

Kalpa = Day of Brahma

2 Kalpa = Day + Night of Brahma

360 Day + Night = Brahma Year

100 Brahma Years = Life of Brahma

These are units to calculate time described in Surya Siddhanta

There are others also

5/n

Units of time during Vedic times

Parmanu

2 Parmanu = Anu

3 Anu = Tresarenu

3 Tresarenu = Truti

100 truti = Vedha

3 Vedha = Lava

3 Lava = Ksana

5 Ksana = Ksatha

15 Ksatha = Laghu

15 Laghu = Danda

2 Danda = Muhurat

30 Mahurat = Ahoratram (Day + Night)

6/n

30 Ahoratram = Masa

2 Masa = Ritu

3 Ritu = Ayana

2 Ayana = Samvatsara (Year) = Deva Ahoratram

- Lunar time units

One tithi = time taken by Moon to increase longitudinal angle by 12 degree

15 Tithis = 1 Paksha

2 Paksha = Lunar Masa

2 Masa = Ritu

3 Ritu = Ayana

7/n

360 Deva Ahotram = Deva year

1000 Deva Years = Kali Yuga

2 Kali Yuga = Dwapr Yuga

3 Kali Yuga = Treta Yuga

4 Kali Yuga = Krita Yuga

All four Yugas with their Sandhya and Sandhyansa = Chatur Yuga

Manvantar Sandhya = Krita Yuga

71 Chaturyuga = Manvantar

306.72 million years

14 Manvantar (including their 14 Sandhya + 1 manvantar Sandhya) = Kalpa

Kalpa = Day of Brahma
Pralay = Night of Brahma

Kalpa + Pralay = A Day of Brahma

360 Brahma Day = Brahma year

100 Brahma year = Life span of Brahma (311.04 trillion years)

During Current Kalpa (time elapsed)

We are in 7th Manvantar

=7th Manvantar + 7 Manvantar Sandhyas + elapsed 6 Manvantar
=28th Chaturyuga+27 Chaturyuga+7 Manvantar Sandhya+6 Manvantar
=(4320000-432000+5121)+ 4320000x27 + 17280000x7 + 306720000x6
=1972949122 years
=1.97 B Y
