Guest guest Posted March 26, 1999 Report Share Posted March 26, 1999 Dear List Members, A few day ago there was an extract from Indian Express that explained we are in the midst of Kali Yuga. This is the general belief in India and most other parts of the world that to vedic teachings. Are we really in the middle of Kali Yuga, or are we else where in the Yuga Cycle? Has there been an error in calculations, if so how did it come about? In the Introduction to a booklet called "The Holy Science", written by Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri (of Yukteswar Ayanamsa fame), the guru of Swami Sri Paramahansa Yogananda, he clearly explains the yuga chakra. Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri was one of India's God-realised Masters. Such Masters possess intuitive powers of reasoning and are able to discern truths that evade mere mortals like the rest of us. He goes to show the real point in the Yuga Cycle that we are in at present and how the error had crept into the calculations. His arguments are convincing. Relevant extracts from the booklet are attached as a winword file.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 1999 Report Share Posted March 27, 1999 Jaya Jaya Jagannath Dear Purushottama, You have made a good point and have closed the issue. I am only adding a few lines for more reference:- You wrote:- Next Point... "tatah kalau sampravritte sammohaya surta-dvishaam buddho naamnaanjana-sutah kikateshu bhavishyati" "Then, in the beginning of the Kali yuga, the Lord will appear as Lord Buddha, the son of Anjana, in the province of Gayaa (Bihar), just for the purpose of deluding those who are envious of the faithful theist." (Bhagavat Purana 01:03:24) The word 'tatah' clearly indicates it is a prediction for the future. Bhagavat Purana is 5000 years old. Bhagavan Buddha appeared 2600 years ago. A clear prophesy. Buddha's appearance is described as being in the beginning of Kali Yuga. 2400 years of the Kali Yuga have passed. How then, is this the beginning? SANJAY: MAHARISHI PARASARA HAS ALSO MADE THIS PREDICTION ABOUT THE BUDDHA AVATAR..AND THE WORLD TREAT THE FOLLOWERS OF BUDDHA AS A SEPARATE RELIGION OF BUDDHISM WHEREAS IT IS ALSO A PART OF VAISNAVISM OF THE COLOR OF MERCURY. THUS, INSPITE OF KNOWING THE TRUTH, THE WORLD STILL FOLLOWS THE PATH OF IGNORANCE...THIS IS THE SIGN OF THE KALI YUGA. THERE ARE OTHER SIGNS IN JYOTISH TO SEE THE EFFECT OF KALI. TAKE THE TIME OF RECKONING OF THE DAY. IN JYOTISH, WE ARE TAUGHT THAT THIS BEGINS WITH THE FIRST RAYS OF THE SUN AND IF WE WERE FOLLOWING THIS IN OUR DAY TO DAY LIVES, THE FIRST HOUR WOULD BE FROM SUNRISE WHICH IS, ASTROLOGICALLY EQUATED WITH ARIES. HOWEVER, TODAY WE FOLLOW THE DAY THAT STARTS FROM MIDNIGHT CALLED "KALI GAYATRI" THAT IS EQUATED WITH THE SIGN CAPRICORN. THUS, WE ARE IN KALI YUGA. IN THIS MANNER THE JYOTISHA SHOULD STUDY ALL THE SIGNS AROUND TO SEE WHAT GUNA PREVAILS AT ANY PLACE OR IN ANY INSTITUTION. Other points to remember are that according to Bhagavat Purana, Mahabharata, Chaitanya Upanishad (in the Atharva Veda), Lord Sri Krishna would incarnate as Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, in the Kali Yuga. Sri Chaitanya appeared 500 years ago. This was also Kali Yuga. He also accepted that we are in Kali Yuga. SANJAY: "JAGANNATHA SWAMI NAYANA PATAHA GAMI BHAVA TUME". THIS PRAYER OF SRI SRI CHAITANYA MAHAPRABHU IS THE ESSENCE OF OUR PATH IN THIS AGE OF DARKNESS WHERE THE DARKNESS IS BLINDING. I HAVE ALSO GIVEN THE VISHNU GAYATRI RECENTLY IN THIS LIST..IT GIVES THE POWER TO SEE THE TRUTH. Finally, if Kali Yuga is really over, what happened to the incarnation of Lord Kalki. "Thereafter, at the conjuntion of two Yugas, the Lord of the creation will take His birth as the Kalki incarnation and Become the son of Vishnu Yashaa. At this time the rulers of the Earth will have degenerated into plunderers." (Bhagavat Purana 01:03:25) SANJAY: THERE ARE SOME OPINIONS ON THIS ON THE EXACT DATE, TIME AND PLACE ON THE BASIS OF INTERPRETATION AND JYOTISH. I AM INCLINED TO AGREE WITH SRI ACHYUTA DASA THE DIRECT DISCIPLE OF SRI SRI CHAITANYA AND THE PARAMPARA GURU OF OUR JYOTISH TRADITION IN ORISSA. WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS ON THIS? With Regards, Sanjay Rath ---------------- ------ eGroup home: http://www.eGroups.com/list/sjvc Free Web-based e-mail groups by eGroups.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 27, 1999 Report Share Posted March 27, 1999 Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya Hi Sanjay. >>SANJAY: THERE ARE SOME OPINIONS ON THIS ON THE EXACT DATE, TIME AND PLACE ON THE BASIS OF INTERPRETATION AND JYOTISH. I AM INCLINED TO AGREE WITH SRI ACHYUTA DASA THE DIRECT DISCIPLE OF SRI SRI CHAITANYA AND THE PARAMPARA GURU OF OUR JYOTISH TRADITION IN ORISSA. WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS ON THIS?<< I am not sure of the exact date and time, and I don't know Sri Achyuta Das's view. Can you tell me? All I firmly believe, is that Sri Kalki will appear at the end of Kali Yuga (427000 years approx) in the village of Sambhala, in the house of Vishnu Yashaa. Hare Krishna, Pursottam "mleccha-nivaha-nidhane kalayasi karavalamdhumaketum iva kim api karalam kesava dhrta-kalki-sarira jaya jagadisa hare" " 0 Kesava! O Lord of the universe! O Lord Hari, who have assumed the form of Kalki! All glories to You! You appear like a comet and carry a terrifying sword for bringing about the annihilation of the wicked barbarian men at the end of the Kali-yuga.
