World’s first ‘Vedic clock’, billed as a testament to the fusion of technology and tradition, is all set to be unveiled in the holy city of Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh on March 1 this year.
The clock will display Indian Standard Time (IST), Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), and Vedic time, simultaneously. The clock will be fixed based on the principles of Vedic time calculation.
Changes in the timings of sunrise and sunset in different places in the country and the world will also be synchronised in the clock.
The clock is designed to display time in 30 ‘Muhurats’, a unit of time in the Vedic system that divides day into 30 equal parts.
In addition to displaying hours, minutes and seconds, the clock will provide a view of celestial ballet, including movements of planets and stars, solar and lunar eclipses, and the precise positioning of celestial bodies.
The clock will be synchronised with the Sun’s position for accurate representation of time, as calculated by the ancient Vedic scholars, he added.
