> त्रसरेणुत्रिकं भुङ्क्ते यः कालः स त्रुटिः स्मृतः ।\
> शतभागस्तु वेधः स्यात्तैस्त्रिभिस्तु लवः स्मृतः ॥६॥

> trasareṇu-trikaṁ bhuṅkte\
> yaḥ kālaḥ sa truṭiḥ smṛtaḥ\
> śata-bhāgas tu vedhaḥ syāt\
> tais tribhis tu lavaḥ smṛtaḥ

*trasareṇu-trikam*—combination of three hexatoms; *bhuṅkte*—as they take time to integrate; *yaḥ*—that which; *kālaḥ*—duration of time; *saḥ*—that; *truṭiḥ*—by the name *truṭi*; *smṛtaḥ*—is called; *śata-bhāgaḥ*—one hundred *truṭis*; *tu*—but; *vedhaḥ*—called a *vedha*; *syāt*—it so happens; *taiḥ*—by them; *tribhiḥ*—three times; *tu*—but; *lavaḥ*—*lava*; *smṛtaḥ*—so called.

**The time duration needed for the integration of three trasareṇus is called a truṭi, and one hundred truṭis make one vedha. Three vedhas make one lava.**

It is calculated that if a second is divided into 1687.5 parts, each part is the duration of a *truṭi,* which is the time occupied in the integration of eighteen atomic particles. Such a combination of atoms into different bodies creates the calculation of material time. The sun is the central point for calculating all different durations.
