overlapping of yugas

[Guest guest]

There is a chronological order of the four millenniums, namely Satya,

Dvapara, Treta and Kali. But sometimes there is overlapping. During the

regime of Vaivasvata Manu, there was an overlapping of the twenty-eighth

round of the four millenniums, and the third millennium appeared prior to

the second. In that particular millennium, Lord Sri Krsna also descends, and

because of this there was some particular alteration.

 

============ REF. SB 1.4.14

 

Can anyone elaborate on why, bcause of Krsna's advent, this overlapping took

place?

I have wondered about this myself, except that Krishna being the controller

of time and space makes adjustments according to His own sweet will. I would

love to hear if someone has read anything written by the previous Acaryas.

 

His transcendental nature is evidenced by the fact that He continually breaks

and rearranges the rules thus the flip flopping of yugas. These aberrations

serve as more proof that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. His

transcendental pastimes challenge our sense of order and attachment to the

mundane modes of goodness. His entire appearance and pastimes encourages our

personal inquiry and surrender.
