Great Indian Time System

Many of us think that Second is the shortest unit of time. But India have given the world the shortest unit of time, that is "KRATI". Let us have a look on the Indian Time System

1   Krati    =    34000th of a second

1   Truti     =    300th of a second

2   Truti     =    1 Luv

2    Luv      =   1 Kshna  

30 Kshna   =   1 Vipal

60 Vipal     =   1 Pal

60 Pal        =   1 Ghadi(24 minute) 

2.5 Ghadi   =   1 Hora(1 hour)

24 Hora     =   1 Divas (1 day)

7 Divas      =    1 Saptah(1 week)

4 Saptah    =     1 Mas(1 month)

2 Mas        =     1 Rutu(1 season)

6 Rutu        =     1 Varsh(1 year)

100 Varsh   =    1 Shatabdi(1 century)

10 Shatabdi  =  1 Shastrabdi

432 Shastrabdi  = 1 Yug(kaliyug)

2 Yug           =   1 Dwaparyug

3 Yug           =   1 Tretayug

4 Yug           =   1 Krutayug

10 Yug         =    1 Mahayug(43,20,000 years)

1000 Mahayug = 1 Kalpa

1 Kalpa            =  4.32 billion years
