Wisdom of Karanas
The 11 Karanas shape the intricate details of half-day blocks in the Vedic calendar.
While the Tithi outlines the primary theme of the day, the Karana indicates highly specific
times for engaging in commerce, making deals, orтАФin the case of the fierce Vishti (Bhadra)тАФrefraining
entirely from worldly pursuits.
Checking the Karana is a final, critical filter in Muhurat selection. No matter how auspicious the Moon or Tithi is, starting a major life event during Bhadra or Naga Karana is universally prohibited by classical Vedic authorities.
