There is no arguing that. But that is just a small variation within a short part of the kaliyuga (app 1000 years compared to 432,000). That doesn't nescessarily mean that through the entire age of kali people increase in size. That would not be a logical argument. I see no contradiction between the sastra and the fact that there are small variations in the bigger scheme of time. ys Yadunandan das Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
