Explore the cycle
The dial divides Ujjain’s sunrise-to-sunrise cycle into 30 display hours. It starts at 0 and reaches 15 halfway through. The same cycle contains 60 ghati, with 60 pala per ghati and eight equal prahara.
For a simplified 24-hour sunrise cycle, six modern hours correspond to 7.5 display hours. The live clock uses the calculated interval between actual sunrises.
