Just before dawn and dusk are said to be the best times. You can see many reasons: a) The sound travels vertically up during these times as the dense air is down. In other times it tarvels horizontally. b) Ozone layer is the highest c) It is also said that the cosmic particles are highest at this time This time is logical. 4:00-5:00 Am before sunrise is the ideal time for meditation.

I think we gain a little out of everything we read and I gained a little more from this that the usual post. I don't think I am ready to set my alarm clock for 4:00am just yet though.

Yes the monks have a lot of different things they do before bed. One of the things is to look back at the day and see if they have infringed their vows in any way. If they have the vow not to do it again. They also have certain personal practices that they do. TDM Hi Vonda.
