Why is it beneficial to sleep early at night and to wake up early the next morning?
Sleeping at night is an action complimentary to the enhanced Tama component in the atmosphere, resulting in peaceful sleep.
This increased Tama component affects the body and mind, and as a result, large proportion of sāttvik energy has to be expended to perform spiritual practice or auspicious tasks at night.
Therefore it is better to use this time to rest the body to maintain good health.
From dawn until 11am, the atmosphere is sāttvik and charged with Divine Consciousness. Hence, such an atmosphere is most conducive for performing spiritual practice and auspicious tasks.
