Muhurth = Auspicious Time
Muhurth is good time to start an event. Ancient Indian Astrology lays down various rules for finding good days and time. The rules also specify which days to avoid. If an event is to be planned and done at an in-auspicious time, then remedial measure, pariharam, to be performed is specified in the scriptures. These rules, pariharams and days to avoid are shown in WORLD PANCHANG.
