Amrit Vela is a very important time for Sikhs

Amrit Velā (ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਵੇਲਾ) Template:IPA-pa) (Time of Amrit) refers to the early morning period of time sometime between 3:00am and 6:00am[1] or before the dawning of the morning sun[2] which is used for daily meditation and recitation of Gurbani hymns. Guru Nanak in the Japji Sahib (4th Pauri) says, "In amrit velā meditate on the grandeur of the one true Name."[1] The importance of Amrit Vela is found throughout the Guru Granth Sahib.

In the Sikh Rehat Maryada it is written to arise Amrit Velā, bath, and meditate on the divine Naam (through Simran and Naam Japna). Sikhs recite their morning Nitnem during Amrit vela. Traditionally after Nitnem Sikhs meet with the Sangat (congregation) to recite Asa ke Var.[3]
