Pranam Q3,4,5 &6 I wrote about these long ago and again in repetitive mode to make all enlightened. Thank you Q7 Brahma Muhurtam is the pre-dawn time arunodayam. Brāhmamuhūrta (ब्राह्ममुहूर्त) refers to:—The auspicious period of the day just before dawn, from one-and-a-half hours to fifty minutes before sunrise. Brāhmamuhūrta (ब्राह्ममुहूर्त) refers to the “most beneficial time of the day” (for the cultivation of spiritual life), according to the Arcana-dīpikā (manual on deity worship).—[...] In the last part of the night, the segment of time consisting of the two *muhūrtas* <https://www.wisdomlib.org/definition/muhurta#vaishnavism> (one hour and thirty-six minutes) before sunrise, is called *aruṇodaya*, or dawn. The first of these two *muhūrtas* is called the *brāhma-muhūrta*. This *brāhma-muhūrta* is the most beneficial time of the day for the cultivation of spiritual life. The life of Brahma is 100 years divided into human value measurements discussed under time already in this column. The pre-dawn of Brahma is equated to human time here which is auspicious.
