Times are the temple's published aarti times in the temple's local time. The trust decides what is streamed and when, so a stream may start late or not at all. An aarti is shown as “now” for 30 minutes after it begins and as “soon” within 90 minutes; these are display conventions, not the length of the aarti.
Streams are embedded or linked from each temple trust's own official channel. Udyog Jyotish is not affiliated with any temple trust; names and streams belong to their owners.
