A prahar is an eighth of a day: about three hours.
It is how time was counted in India long before minutes. Eight watches of the day, each with its own light and its own work. We borrowed the name because a good watch should make three hours feel like enough.
This page follows the same clock. Its colours and the light on the watch change with the prahar. Choose one to see it.
