Chronometry

Description of time from Atom to the life of Lord Brahma

Paramanu (Atom) -->Ultimate indivisible particle of material manifestation

Param Mahan -->Unmanifest aggregate of Atoms (Complete Manifestation)

Atomic Time -->Time required for the sun to pass an Atom or time taken to pierce a lotus through a needle

Greater Time (Brahma's life) -->Time required to cover the unmanifest aggregate of Atoms

Trasarenu --> Two paramaanus make an anu. Three anus make a trasarenu, which is perceived by the eye, since if follow the air currents in the rays of the sun entering the window lattice.

One Truti --> The time it takes for the sun to pass over three trasa-renus (3 hexatomes) = 8/13,500 sec
