TIMING SYSTEM OF ANCIENT INDIAN

Some things about Hindu mythology show how much we people leave great things unnoticed.
This was the timing system of Hindu mythology.

The small unit of time is a nimesha,
 15 nimeshas = 1 kashtha,
30 kashthas = 1 kala 
and 30 kalas = 1 kshana. 

6 kshanas = 1 danda, 
2 dandas = 1 muhurta 
and 
 30 muhurtas = 1 day. 

There are thrity days in a month and each month is divided into two pakshas of fifteen days each. 

Two months = 1 season (ritu) 
and 3 ritus = 1 ayana. 

There are thus six seasons and two ayanas in a year.

The two ayanas are known as uttarayana and dakshinayana.

In Mythology, one year for humans is equivalent to one day for the gods. Uttarayana corresponds to day for the gods and dashinayana to night.

Twelve thousand years of the gods are known as a mahayauga. Each mahayuga is divided into four sub-periods of satya yuga, treta yuga, dvapara yuga and kali yuga.

Two thousand mahayugas are merely one day for Brahma. There are fourteen eras (manvantara) in each of Brahma’s days. Brahma’s nights are just as long and it is during Brahma’s night that the world is destroyed and flooded with water. Each of Brahma’s days is called a kalpa.

A hundred years for Brahma are equivalent to a single day for Vishnu.

We live in seconds, minutes,hrs,weeks and we feel so ! let the world proceed with the same system. but hope there'd be some researchers who check the others systems also so that they'd be more better to follow !!
