10. THE GOLDEN AGE - HOW & WHEN?

THE GOLDEN AGE - HOW & WHEN?

The following is a comprehensive summary of the predictions by ancientand modern

day seers, astrologers and psychics around the worldregarding the Golden Age

compiled by Jai Hari Dasa. Jai Hari Dasa (JamesSpencer), an astrologer of many

years has verified these with theastrological and astronomical facts. This has

been compiled by me(Nayana-ranjana Dasa) from the two messages of Jai Hari

Dasa. Most ofthe things are direct words of Jai Hari Dasa. I have added

somesentences here & there.

THE BEGINNING OF KALI-YUGA

Imagine the following scene: It is midnight on the meridian of Ujjain inIndia on

February 18, 3102 B.C. The seven planets, including the sun andmoon, cannot be

seen since they are all lined up in one direction on theother side of the

earth. Directly overhead the dark planet Rahu hoversinvisibly in the blackness

of night. According to the jyotisa sastras,this alignment of the planets

actually occurred on this date, whichmarks the beginning of the Kali-yuga. In

fact, in the Surya-siddhanta,time is meas ured in days since the start of

Kali-yuga. [From VedicCosmography & Astronomy by Sadaputa Dasa (Richard

Thompson)]

This means we are in the 5101th year of Kali-yuga.

PREDICTION IN THE BRAHMA-VAIVARTA PURANA

Text 50sri bhagavan uvacakaleh pamcasahasrani varsani tistha bhu-talepapani

papino yani tubhyam dasyamti snanatah

The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: On the earth 5,000 yearsof Kali will be

sinful and siners will deposit their sins in you bybathing.

Text 51man-mamtropasakasparsad bhasmibhutani tatksanatbhavisyamti darsanacca snanadeva hi jahnavi

"Thereafter by the sight and touch of those who worship Me by Mymantra, all

those sins will be burnt."

Text 52harernamani yatraiva puranani bhavamti hitatra gatva savadhanam abhih sarddham ca srosyasi

There will be chanting of the name of Hari and reading of the [bhagavata]Purana.

Reaching such a place, attentively hear.

Text 55thatapi vaisnava loke papani papinamapiprthivyam yani tirthani punyanyapi ca jahnavi

O Ganges, the whole planet will become a pilgrimage sight by thepresence of

Vaisnavas, even though it had been sinful.

Text 59kaler dasa-sahasrani madbhaktah samti bhu-taleekavarna bhavisyamti madbhaktesu gatesu ca

For 10,000 years of Kali such devotees of Mine will fill the whole planet.After

the departure of My devotees there will be only on varna [outcaste].

Conclusion: 5100 years of Kali-yuga have already passed so the beginningof the

Golden Age which is predicted in the Brahma-vaivarta Purana tobegin after 5000

years of Kali-yuga must be just around the corner.

AUGUST 1999 - THE FULL SOLAR ECLIPSE

Through the science of analogy and correspondence I can readily see howthe

planetary conditions are in sinc with these horrific predictions.There are

unlimited inauspicious omens that reveal the unfortunateconditions of our

modern day world. The present planetary situation isominous and foreboding. In

this way I support the fateful predictions ofancient and modern day seers.

My mind continues to nag me about the hardships I feel are soon to comeupon

humankind. The year 2000 is a very ominous year for all livingentities.The year

before, 1999, cannot be over looked. This is aforeboding year when anything and

everything adverse and terrible couldbefall humankind.

There was a full solar eclipse - on August 11th 1999 at 11.08 GMT. Marswas on

the horizon. This particular full eclipse, was a rare type ofeclipse, in

conjunction with other planetary positions. Theconstellation that the Sun and

Rahu were transiting is dynamic andthreatening. The ominous presence of this

eclipse was a very dark omenfor us all.

The eclipse took place with Rahu and the Sun in Cancer, the sign of theMoon.

During the eclipse, the Moon was black and devoid of life andpower.

This eclipse revealed the presence of Kali Durga, the Goddess of deathand

destruction. We watched the red planet Mars and strings of cometsthat follow

after this ominous total eclipse of the Sun. Mars andSaturn are very important

planets in the transformations that the worldis going to witness in the years

ahead.

JULY 1999 - MAY 2000 THE DANGEROUS PERIOD

July of 1999 until July of 2000 is a very dangerous period on planetearth. Some

times I just shake my head, in wonder of it all. I amstunned by the potential

of destruction, behind all this. The planetaryaspects are frightful, appalling

and ruinous. From the middle of 1999 tothe middle of 2000 Mars and Saturn are

extremely destructive formankind. First comes the ominous Solar Eclipse of

8/11/99, thenfinishing with the grand conjunction of planets in Aries on

5/2000. Itwon't be long now. The planet ary lineup will soon be upon us.

Thelineup takes place in the constellation of Aries, a sign ruled by Marsthe

planet of war and destruction. As far as I'm concerned the wholeyear holds many

dangers. It is not a good year to be moving about. Itis better to stay close to

home and take care of yourself. No matterwhat happens, I am honored to have

been born at a time in history ofsuch astrological significance. The solar

eclipse of 8/99 is dark omenof immense proportions as the planets prepare for

th eir grand lineup ofthe year 2000.

Astrologically speaking, the solar eclipse of 8/99, and the planetaryline up of

the year 2000, are rare and unfriendly stars. In many ways,I will be glad when

this millennium bug is over, one way or another!The long time awareness of the

astrological influence of 1999 and 2000has been a knowledgeable monkey on my

shoulders for many years. Wewill never pay witness to such an astrological

phenomena again in thislife. If you are an astrologer, this occurrence must

take first placein your life. MAY 2000 - 2002.

MAY 2000 - 2002 THE GREAT DESTRUCTION

During May of 2000 the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturnlineup in

the constellation of Aries. Mars rules this constellation andhe will be leading

the lineup slightly ahead in the early degrees ofTaurus. During a short period

of time all seven planets will be in astraight line. Mars is the commander and

chief. This grand conjunctionof planets is the planetary inauguration of the

Aquarius age.

I believe that mass destruction will manifest in both ways. There willbe a

serious war, acts of extreme terrorism as well as naturalcatastrophe. Two of

the most dangerous countries in terms of devastatingwar are India and Pakistan.

One of the most dangerous countries interms of extreme acts of terrorism and

natural disasters is the good oleUSA. All the countries that were totally

blackened by the solar eclipsein August of this year are in extreme danger. It

is interesting to notethat Turkey was o ne of those countries that Rahu cast a

complete shadowduring the eclipse. Three days after the eclipse Turkey was

struck witha devastating earth quake, killing 20,000 people. I believe that

Canadais one of the safest countries to live in during these next few

years.Never the less it is advisable that you do not live on the coast

lines,nor on flatbeds of land that can easily be subject to flooding. It

ispossible that the Great Lakes of Ontario will flood and merge into onebody of

water. Naturally , this will cause unlimited adversity anddeath. It has been

predicted that as much as two thirds of the planetwill be wiped out. This is a

frightening prediction of tremendousproportion. If things come to this, I'm

afraid we all are going tosuffer in one way or another. The old and sick will

die off quickly andthe rest of us become subject to survival of the fittest. I

dare say,how I could make such a doomsday prediction, without choking on

mywords. I can only hope and pray that my thoughts wil l be on LordCaitanya and

the Holy name when death knocks on my door. One would hopethat the predictions

in this period (2000-2002) may come out false butthen the massive destruction

in these two years is a part of the biggerplan which is the advent of the most

wonderful Golden Age.

Let us now become greatly absorbed in chanting the Hare Krishnamaha-mantra along

with spiritual and metaphysical study. In this way wecan stay absorbed in

transcendental subject matter and the bliss of theLord's Holy name and thus

transcend the impending disasters in thematerial environment.

It has been predicted that it will take until 2002 to just climb out ofthe

rubble and major chaos. This is an interesting prediction, asUranus will enter

sidereal Aquarius in 2002.

>From the ashes of destruction, the birth of universal vision is upon us.

2002-2009: THE LAUNCH OF THE GOLDEN AGE

After the year 2002 it will take another few decades to bring someresemblance of

organization, form and structure back into society. Ifall the things that have

been predicted for the change of the milleniumcome true? It will take a whole

generation for complete restoration andhealing.

After this, the Kali Yuga age, will be held back for a period of 10,000years.

There will be 5000 years to the perfection of a mini Satya Yuga,when the planet

is slowly returned to the mode of goodness. After thatthere is another 5000

years of slow decline and degradation. At thispoint the dark ages of Kali Yuga

are back upon us in full force.

This 10,000-year cycle is a "Grace" period within the Kali Yuga. Duringthis

time, unlimited living entities will return back to the spiritualworld, due to

the unlimited and unfathomable mercy of the Golden Avatar.

Yes, Uranus enters sidereal Aquarius in 2002. Uranus will remain inthis sign for

7 years. During this time human kind will go throughtremendous and inconceivable

changes. During the 7-year transit ofUranus through Aquarius more great souls,

enlightened beings and puredevotee's will manifest. Aquarius is the Water

Bearer who pours uponmankind, the Absolute Truth. Jesus was the Avatar for the

age of Piscesand Lord Caitanya is the Golden Avatar for the Age of Aquarius.

LordCaitanya is an Aquarius . Even Jesus taught His disciples that therewas

more for them to know, but they were not yet ready to hear. He wenton to say,

that during the age of the Water Bearer, all that is to beknown, will come upon

mankind. These 7 years will be the most importantperiod which will lay the

foundation for the manifestation of the GoldenAge. Those living entities,

countries and cities that are born withAquarius lagna, Aquarius Moon or Sun

sign are sure to be changed foreverduring Ura nus through Aquarius. T hose who

are highly advanced inKrsna consciousness, or given the mercy of Lord

Caitanya's, will moveinto a state of samadhi.

I don't believe we can experience 7 years of Uranus moving throughAquarius with

out some serious upheaval and revolution. Therefore thebig changes predicted

upon the earth will extend beyond the planetaryline-up and into the transit of

Uranus through sidereal Aquarius.

Uranus/Aquarius holds a certain amount of unreliability and erraticbehaviour.

After all, Uranus is a planet of sudden shifts, shock, alarm,earth quakes,

surprise, alteration, mutation, riot, stampede andavalanches.

Uranus rules ultra sound and ultra violet. Nothing is the same afterUranus does

his thing. We are likely to be initially perplexed andpuzzled. Uranus opens new

frontiers, obeys higher orders, higherparameters, is unorthodox, totally

impatient, eccentric, andmischievous. Uranus looks for new thrills, breaks all

boundaries and isa seeker par excellence. Uranus can be fanatic, idealist, and

adesperado. Uranus cannot stand mediocre, monotony or stupidity. Uranusseeks to

disclose new vistas, new pan oramas and discover new sciences.Uranus is

revolution, reform and the 2nd coming of Krsna consciousness.Uranus does not

mind scandal nor reproach. Uranus is anti-establishmentand he smites what is

decadent, obsolete or just in the way. Uranus iscapable of bringing shocking

violence upon human kind.

When Uranus moves into Aquarius be ready for anything. The transits ofUranus

always brings drastic changes. It is a savage force that stopsas suddenly as it

started. Uranus is electronic and always on themove. Uranus is alert, acute and

ready like a jet pilot. Uranus is sofast that its speed is hard to measure.

Uranus is the Absolute Truth,universal brotherhood and the science of the soul.

 

It is easy to realize that we are in the very early stages of the Age

ofAquarius. In relation to "time" our present life span means nothing.It is not

even one blink of Lord Brahma's eye. Time is relative, but,for the spirit-soul

it does not exist. In relation to all themarvellous changes that are yet to

take place before the earth isflooded in Love of Godhead, we have not even

climbed out of the stoolyet. We cannot limit our vision to this one mere life

time.

The Age of Aquarius is the age of enlightenment. It is the beginningstage of a

mini Satya Yuga, or Golden Age. It is not the end of KaliYuga; rather, it is a

10,000-year grace period, within Kali Yuga. Thegrace period exists simply by

the unlimited mercy of Lord Caitanya, theGolden Avatar. The main purpose of

this 10,000-year grace period, is toflood the world with love of God;

liberating unlimited numbers of livingentities, before the real Dark Age of

Kali Yuga is upon us in fullforce. As prophesi zed by Lord Caitanya, the golden

years of grace willoffer unlimited spiritual opportunities.

The Aquarius energy is not bound to race, color or creed. Aquarius seesthe true

spirit in everyone. Aquarius is the sign of the Water-bearerwho pours great

wisdom upon mankind. The Water-bearer will aid mankindtoward development of a

society according to far greater moral andspiritual values. Aquarius seeks

universal brotherhood, expression andideals. Aquarius is a sign ruled by both

Saturn and Uranus. Thehighest qualities in humankind are expressed through an

exalted Saturn.Limitations are broken and new frontiers are explored when

Uranus comesaround. Uranus will return to Aquarius in 2002. This only happens

oncein a hundred years. It is considered a positive turning point forhumankind.

 

2009-4000 A.D. THE MATERIALIZATION OF THE GOLDEN AGE

As you probably already know, each age lasts 2000 earth years. It willtake these

two thousand years for Lord Caitanya's mission to fullymaterialize. It will take

another 3000 years to bring His prophecy tobe full manifestation. It will take

another 5000 years to decline.

During the first two thousand years of the Aquarian Age the earth willbe

restored to the mode of goodness, thus creating a mini Satya Yugawithin Kali

Yuga. This is necessary before human kind can pursuespiritual life nicely. Once

mother Bhumi is restored to the mode ofgoodness a pure varna society can become

established and Dharma becomesembedded through out the world.

It is an era when mankind will scientifically prove the existence of thesoul.

>From this pursuit light energy will evolve to levels beyond ourpresent

imagination. The metaphysical arts and sciences are restoredand honored. The

accuracy of Jyotish is restored to a hundred percent.

Aquarius is the sign of universal brotherhood, complete knowledge andservice to

humanity. During this era human kind will come to fullyacknowledge the

existence of the spirit soul in all living entities. Thelaws of human kind will

be based upon the natural laws of karmicretribution that is working through the

forces of material nature.

Numerous evolved souls, sages, mystics and pure devotees of God willincarnate.

The human race will benefit greatly by their association.

4000-7000 A.D. THE FULL MANIFESTATION OF THE GOLDEN AGE

The earth will be returned to an almost perfect condition. Once Naturehas been

healed, the planet will become saturated in the mood ofgoodness. Humankind will

live in harmony with God and nature. There willbe no more pollution, or

religious wars. The opportunities forspiritual advancement are abundant.

The demigods would hanker to take birth during this time on earthbecause of the

extremely favourable situation for self-realization.

I'm afraid if you really want to bare witness to Srila Prabhupada'sworld glory

you'll have to incarnate continuously for the next 5000years. You'll have to

continue your service to Lord Caitanya, each andevery time. In 5000 years from

now we can all gather in the Temple ofTemples and dance in the victory kirtana,

led by Lord Caitanya in honorof Srila Prabhupada.

7000-12000 A.D. THE DECLINE OF THE GOLDEN AGE

The Golden Age will decline gradually for these 5000 years.

12000 Onwards STRENGTHENING OF KALI

The full-force of Kali-yuga will be felt as per the already availabledetailed

descriptions in the 12th Canto of Srimad-Bhagavatam & otherPuranas.

This will culminate in the appearance of Lord Kalki, about 427,000 yearsfrom now

who will come to simply destroy the demoniac & re-establishSatya-yuga which is

the beginning of another Catur-yuga (4,320,000years).
