If we want to understand it in scientific terminology, the time from 4.00 a.m. till sunrise is the time for the secretion of the hormone serotonin. At that time serotonin is secreted from pineal gland, which is very useful to man from many points of view. In today's world, it is hardly possible for one to rise at 4.00 a.m., because the time of sleeping is 1 or 2 a.m. and the time of supper is 12.00 midnight to 1.00 a.m. waking up at 4 o' clock has become mere history. How is it possible practically? It is, very difficult because our lifestyles have changed completely.

A boy was accustomed to wake at 8.00 every morning. One day, his mother said "Son, now wake up. Can't you see the sun has risen?” The boy said "Mother! Why do you compare me with the sun? The sun sets early every evening and goes off to sleep. But I sleep at one. How can you compare me with the sun?" If he sleeps at 1.00, how can he wake up by 4.00? Therefore, it has become difficult to set a time to awaken: If you want a successful, pleasant and peaceful life, it is necessary that you get up in Brahma muhurta, i.e. around 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning. It is good to wake up one or two hours before sunrise.

One should sleep around 10.00 p.m. A person, who manages his routine, the time of waking and sleeping, will find that his days and nights flow pleasantly. Many people say they sleep but they don't have a sound sleep. Dreams abound, so much so that the night is full of dreams. If we violate the appropriate time for sleep we will not get sound sleep. Sleep has got its own time. Everything is set by our biological clock. If you don't work according to the right time, then everything is disturbed and problems arise. If one goes to sleep and wakes up at the right time there may be no need whatsoever to take sleeping pills. Nowadays, billions of rupees are spent on sleeping pills. This happens because the sleeping time crosses all limits.

To fall asleep has its own time, to wake up, too, has its natural time. It is said in the agam scriptures: kale kalam samayare.
