Panchaka Rahita Muhurat is popular in Telugu speaking people in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Panchaka Rahita Muhurtha is used to avoid inauspicious timings. Panchaka Rahita considers Tithi (Lunar day), Vara (weekday), Nakshatra and Udaya Lagna to divide the whole day including night into auspicious and inauspicious time windows. It is believed that all auspicious activities including Marriage, Griha Pravesham and Akshara Abhyasam should be performed during Panchaka Rahitam Muhurtham.
Mrityu, Agni, Raja, Chora and Roga are collectively called as 'Panchaka'. Rahita Means 'without'. Muhurat means 'auspicious moment' or 'auspicious time period'. Muhurat is also pronounced and spelt as Muhurta, Muhurtha, Muhurtam or Muhurtham.
So Muhurat or Muhurtha without Panchaka is known as Panchaka Rahita Muhurtha. Panchaka Rahita Muhurtha literally means 'auspicious moment without inauspicious Panchaka'.
Mrityu, Agni, Raja, Chora and Roga are five inauspicious timings. These five inauspicious time periods should be avoided. Rest time periods are good to start auspicious activities.
Mrityu Panchakam indicates danger and hazard. Agni Panchakam indicates risk from fire. Raja Panchakam indicates bad results. Chora Panchakam indicates evil and fraudulent happenings. Roga Panchakam indicats illness and disease.
The day Choghadiya and night Choghadiya are given here. Shubha Choghadiya is used for checking auspicious time to start new work. Each Choghadiya Muhurta is of approximately 4 Ghati, hence it is called Choghadiya.
The location based time of sunrise is given here. The definition of Sunrise propounded by various scholars like Varahamihira are considered as for determining the time of sunrise. The difference between Hindu and astronomical sunrise is also clarified.
The special Yoga created by the transit of the Chandra in Kumbha and Meena Rashi with the Dhanishta, Shatabhisha, Purva Bhadrapada, Uttara Bhadrapada and Revati Nakshtra is called Panchak. The inauspicious period of 5 days of Panchak is prohibited for auspicious works.
The Beginning and End of Bhadra is given for each month of the year. Bhadra is also known as Vishti Karana. During Bhadra, all kind of auspicious activities like Mundan, Marriage, Housewarming, Pilgrimage and starting a New Business, etc are forbidden.
