TRANSLATION

 

Suta Gosvami said: When the second millennium overlapped the third, the

great sage [Vyasadeva] was born to Parasara in the womb of Satyavati, the

daughter of Vasu.

 

PURPORT

 

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. The mother of the great sage was

Satyavati the daughter of the Vasu (fisherman), and the father was the great

Parasara Muni. That is the history of Vyasadeva's birth. Every millennium is

divided into three periods, and each period is called a sandhya. Vyasadeva

appeared in the third sandhya of that particular age.
