Hindu temples avoid clocks for spiritual reasons

in5points
Hindu temples often avoid clocks to help devotees focus on the divine and find peace, preventing the mind from thinking about time passing.
Spirituality in Hindu culture emphasizes living in the present, and temples without clocks encourage complete immersion in the moment.
Temple rituals are scheduled based on tradition, the Panchang (Hindu almanac), and sunrise/sunset, so priests follow a set routine without needing a clock.
