4 a.m. in the morning is termed as Brahmamuhurta. Because it is favourable for
meditation on God or Brahman, it is called Brahmamuhurta. At this particular hour, the mind is
very calm and serene. It is free from worldly thoughts, worries and anxieties. The mind is like a
blank sheet of paper and comparatively free from worldly Samskaras. It can be very easily
moulded at this time before worldly distractions enter the mind. Further, the atmosphere also is
charged with more Sattva at this particular time. There is no bustle and noise outside.
From "May I answer that" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
