Kali Yuga

:''Not to be confused with Kali Yug, a 1963 Italian film''

Kali Yuga (Devanāgarī: (:kəli juɡə), lit. "age of (demon ) Kali", or "age of vice") is the last of the four stages the world goes through as part of the cycle of yugas described in the Sanskrit scriptures, within the present Mahayuga. The other ages are called Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, and Dvapara Yuga.
Kali Yuga is associated with the apocalyptic demon Kali (who is not to be confused with the goddess Kālī (काळि)). The "Kali" of Kali Yuga means "strife", "discord", "quarrel" or "contention".
==Current Kali Yuga and possible starting dates==
The duration and chronological starting point in human history of Kali Yuga has given rise to different evaluations and interpretations. According to the ''Surya Siddhanta'', Kali Yuga began at midnight (00:00) on 18 February 3102 BCE.〔The Induand the Rg-Veda, Page 16, By Egbert Richter-Ushanas, ISBN 81-208-1405-3〕
According to the astronomer and mathematician Aryabhatta the Kali Yuga started in 3102 BC. He finished his book “Aryabhattiya” in 499 AD in which he gives the exact year of the beginning of Kali Yuga. He writes that he wrote the book in the "year 3600 of the Kali Age" at the age of 23. As it was the 3600th year of the Kali Age when he was 23 years old, and given that Aryabhatta was born in 476 AD, the beginning of the Kali Yuga would come to (3600 - (476 + 23) + 1 (As only one year elapses between 1 B.C and 1 C.E) = ) 3102 BC.〔H.D. Dharm Chakravarty Swami Prakashanand Saraswati. (Encyclopedia Of Authentic Hinduism ) The True History and the Religion of India,Hardbound, 2nd Edition, 2003 ,ISBN 0967382319 Retrieved 2015-01-21〕
There is considerable controversy over the date for the start of the Kali Yuga and its duration. The extremely rare alignment of the Sun, the Moon, the Earth and the four other human-visible planets of the Solar System, that is considered to be the starting point of the Kali Yuga, is depicted in the Mohenjo-Daro seals. These seals are possibly the oldest existing Astronomical observations even according to conventional scholars. Going by this alignment the year 3102 B.C is slightly off. The actual date for this alignment is February 7 of 3104 B.C. There is also sufficient proof to believe that Vrdhha Garga knew of precession at least by 500 B.C. Garga had calculated the rate of precession to within 30% of what the modern scholars estimate.〔http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1993BASI...21..475A〕〔http://www.new1.dli.ernet.in/data1/upload/insa/INSA_1/20005b5f_19.pdf〕
Most interpreters of vedic scriptures, as Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami and his recent disciple Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada believe that Earth is currently in Kali Yuga and lasts 432 000 years. Other authors, such as Swami Sri YukteswarThe Holy Science, by Jnanavatar Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri, Yogoda Sat-Sanga Society of India, 1949〕 and Paramhansa Yogananda, believe that it is now an ascending Dvapara Yuga, indicating levels of cycles within each major Yuga period as each being a development, the smaller cycles within cycles eventually leading to full development of the qualities of the ages. The Kali Yuga is commonly thought to last 6480 years although other durations have been proposed.〔See the article René Guénon, in particular the section on the Hindu doctrine of cosmic cycles: René Guénon#Hindu doctrine of cosmic cycles.〕
