Six times
Six times of the day (Tib. དུས་དྲུག, dü druk, Wyl. dus drug) —
- dawn (ཐོ་རེངས་, toreng, tho rengs)—at this time, you can see the shape of your hand but can not see the lines on your palm.
- morning (སྔ་དྲོ་, ngadro, snga dro)—from when you can see the lines on your palm until sunrise.
- mid day (ཉིན་གུང་, nyinkung, nyin gung)—when things hardly cast any shadow.
- afternoon (ཕྱི་དྲོ་, chidro, phyi dro)—when shadows are not long.
- dusk (སྲོད་, sö, srod)—from sunset until you can no longer make out the lines on your hand.
- midnight (ནམ་གུང་, namkung, nam gung)
