Which time of day did Rashik observe at first?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a dawn
  2. b evening
  3. c afternoon
  4. d twilight (godhuli)
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: d twilight (godhuli)

The book says the time of faint light a little before evening is called godhuli (twilight).

Why the other options are wrong

  • a dawn: At dawn the Sun rises; in the passage the Sun has set red, so it is not dawn.
  • b evening: Evening is when a place passes from light through the shade-circle into darkness; the time of faint light is the godhuli before it.
  • c afternoon: In the afternoon the Sun is in the sky; in the passage it has set but its glow remains.
