Amrit Vela (the ambrosial hours) in Ghaziabad begins approximately 3 hours before local sunrise — typically between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM. The exact time shifts slightly each day as sunrise changes with the season. It is the most sacred period for Gurbani recitation and meditation in the Sikh tradition.

What time is Rehras Sahib in Ghaziabad today?

Rehras Sahib (evening prayer) in Ghaziabad is recited at sunset. For Ghaziabad (28.67°N), sunset varies through the year — Rehras begins within 15–20 minutes of local sunset.

What is Kirtan Sohila time in Ghaziabad?

Kirtan Sohila (the bedtime prayer) is recited before sleep, typically around 9:00–10:00 PM or at the end of the day's activities. There is no strict astronomical time for it, but it follows Rehras Sahib in the daily Nitnem cycle.

Do Sikh Nitnem times change with location in India?

Yes. Amrit Vela is calculated relative to each city's actual sunrise time, not a single national standard. Since India spans 30° of longitude, sunrise in Ghaziabad can differ from Delhi or Kolkata by 20–40 minutes. Using Ghaziabad's local sunrise ensures the Amrit Vela window is accurate for your Gurdwara.
