Kali Yuga : Brahma Vidya-Sri Achyuta Dasa

[Guest guest]

Jaya Jaya Jagannath

Dear Frank,

There is no doom. Sri Achyutu Dasa the direct disciple of Sri Sri

Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has stated in a stanza..about India that "FROM 13OO AD

TO 2000 AD INDIA SHALL SUFFER DASATWA OR BONDAGE. TOWARDS THE END, THIS WILL

BEGIN TO BREAK AND FROM 2000 AD SATYA SANATANA WILL BE ESTABLISHED."

Thus, when we are going to see a very glorious phase begining 2000

AD, I cannot agree with those predictions about Doom. Later Sri Achyutaya

adds that this will be done by the strength or people of Baladeva (Sri

Balaram, the elder brother of Bhagawan). Now, we can only speculate here.

 

BRAHMA VIDYA: There seems to be some confusion about understanding of the

Yuga cycles. This is so because of the lack of appretiation of the

"Sankalpha" done at the begining of the prayers. The day of Brahma is called

"Kalpha" from which the word "Sankalpha" is derived. Kalpha also means

Lagna. Hence Brahma controls longevity. In the day there is "Leela" and in

the Night, the universe is withdrawn and exists as a potentiality. This

Kalpha is about 4320 Million years and 360 such Brahma days make a Brahma

Year. Now, Brahma's life is for 100 such years and it is believed that

Brahma is in His 51st Year. The Kalpha is divided into 14 Manvantaras of

which we are in the 7th called Manu Vaivasvata. Each Manvantara is for

306,720,000 years with gaps between the manvantara's in any Kalpha. Each

Manvantara is further subdivided into 71 Mahayuga (approx) as 1000 Mahayuga

make one Kalpha. Each Mahayuga is further divided into four Yuga's called

Krta (Four), Treta (Three), Dvapara (Two) and Kali (One) of lengths 4800,

3600, 2400 and 1200 "YEARS OF THE GODS". Here the years of the Gods refers

to the Sun as Deva is derived from Diva (Light) and the Sun is also called

Divakara. THIS IS WHERE THE ERROR CREEPS IN I.E. THE INTERPRETATION OF THE

TERM "YEAR OF THE GODS". WHILE THIS IS GENERALLY ACCEPTED AS THE MOTION OF

THE SUN IN ONE DAY, SOME HAVE EQUATED THIS TO ONE YEAR OF HUMAN LIFE. Thus,

they misrepresent the periods as 4800, 3600, 2400 and 1200 human years

instead.

(Please recall my earlier posts in this regard on Manu Smriti. This

is also the reason why I have been requesting the Software programmers to

calculate the dasa-antar and other smaller periods correctly on the basis of

the Actual solar transit of 360 Degrees with fluctuations in one year

instead of interpolating on the figure of 365.25 days as a lot of

approximation creeps in. Another blunder is to equate the year of the Gods

blindly to 360 human years on the approximate basis of 1 Degree transit of

the Sun per day when we know this to be 365.25 solar days. This is how

another doubt of 360 days instead of 365.25 days per year has crept in.)

 

START OF KALI: The dating of the Kali yuga is the vexed question. Tradition

accepts this as 3102 BC, whereas others relying on the other factors give

900 BC or 600 BC etc. How do we resolve this?

 

MY VIEWS/ WISDOM OF SRI ACHYUTA DASA: Not going into other considerations,

the 60 Year cycle of Jupiter and Saturn is considered very significant. The

Yuga of Kali of 1200 Years of the Gods can be sub-divided into four

sub-periods of 480, 360, 240 and 120 years of the Gods. WE can again divide

this into sub-sub-periods...and so on. Now, Two such cycles of

Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in Aries maybe called a "Chakra" with the first

cycle called as Avaroha and the second as Aaroha. Thus the smallest measure

of quality of time or "Chakra" is 120 solar years. These Chakras can again

be grouped as Krta (Four Chakra), Treta (three Chakra), Dvapara (Two Chakra)

and Kali (one Chakra) having periods of 480, 360, 240 and 120 solar years

each and the MahaChakra will be for 1200 solar years. According to Sri

Achyuta Dasa, the "Dasatwa (Bondage) of India ends in 2000 AD" showing that

the Kali Chakra of 120 years that started in 1880 AD is to end in 2000 AD

when Jupiter & Saturn are to conjoin in Aries again. Thus, this MahaChakra

must have started 1200 years back in 800 AD. Further, the KrtaChakra should

have been from 800 AD to 1280 AD and during this period the best temples

were built and the finest literature produced. This was the golden age of

India. After this, TretaChakra was from 1280 to 1640 AD during which we find

that Satwa declines and strife increases. The Dasatva (Bondage) of India

begins as invaders came to rule and Muslim dynasty's are set up in India.

DvaparaChakra was from 1640 to 1880 when the British directly ruled India

under the Crown. With the advent of KaliChakra (1880 to 2000 AD), the fight

for freedom begins in the form of revival of religion etc. Strife is at its

highest and has gone to the villages as well. The main theme in India, the

most spiritual Land, is still peace..or a peaceful approach to freedom in

the Aaroha (Increasing) portion of 60 years (1880 to 1940 AD) whereas in the

Avaroha portion 1940 to 2000 AD even Mahatma Gandhi takes a war-like posture

in the Quit India resolution of 1942.

The KaliChakra (1880 to 2000 AD) has seen the development of the

most powerful weapons for mass destruction as well as their use. Next year,

the entire cycle changes and another MahaChakra of 1200 Years begins with a

KretaChakra (2000 to 2480 AD) and once again, the temples will be built,

literature will florish and a lot of good will happen on this planet. Sri

Achyuta Dasa, the pride of the Tradition of Orissa and the Direct Disciple

of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has left such brilliant Gems in Oriya Prose and

I hope to translate them properly for the benefit of all jyotish.

Dear Sanjay ji

 

a. all traditional astrologers in interior of country calculates dasa

bhukti per solar year. This fact is certainly missing in all the charts

calculators.

 

b. another thing, which traditional astrologers follow is the reliance on

constellations for all the possible results while predicting. The sign

placement/movement is weighed less to constellation placement/movement for

planet in question.

 

c. year 2000 is considered significant for the conjunction of

jupiter/saturn in kritkka nakshatra (lord surya). Is it a pointer to major

world war.

Dear Prafullaji,

As I said, we can only speculate here. If Sri Baladeva is going to use

His Bala for establishing Satya Sanatana, then, I guess a war can be

expected.

With Best Wishes,

Sanjay Rath.
