Tribalism was common place during the last Satya Yuga 14,000 years ago when's mans consciousness was at a higher state. Man started farming after his consciousness shrank during the decending Treta Yuga and he learned the fear of death and separation.

We're currently in an ascending Dwapara Yuga where materialism reigns and men are mostly honorless. The next Satya Yuga won't be for like another 6,000 years.



Yea i agree with him for the most part

But he is wrong. We are in Kali Yuga and there are almost half a million years left... ~1,000 divine years

It is unfortunate that on this cycle the akarmic and demonic have taken nearly complete power only 5,000 years in. There is so much time left though... imagine 400,000 years of human chattel slavery made possible by technological advantage developed in a short 50 years.

The consensus of some scholars today is that the truth of the Yugas and the Vedas was lost during the Kali Yuga at about the time the library of Alexandria was burned. As a result we have absurd numbers of years like 400,000 years for the length of the Dark Age, aka Kali Yuga, which are held on to today out of mostly nostalgia.

People like Sri Yukteswar spent his life trying to revive the Hindu classics after Britain "de-Sanskritized" Indian society during colonization. Sri Yukteswar's calculations for the Yugas match our human history much better too. The end of Kali Yuga would have been the same time as the European enlightenment. According to him, the cycle of the Yugas represents one MahaYuga and that in turn represents the time it takes for the earth's axis to complete one full rotation (about 24,000) years.

Life now is much better than it was 1,000 years ago which is my biggest argument for it currently being Dwapara Yuga. There is also evidence for ancient societies having a higher standard of living than during the dark ages as well, running sewers, laws, etc.

Dno. To me it looks like overexplained version from: I have one good day, then I have one bad day, followed by a good day, which turned out bad.

You just gave this project manager for the automation industry a solid half chub.



as to the eastern woohoo, my wife did successfully convince me to use a tongue cleaner. i refused to have my readings done for moon sign and all that other stuff. i control my destiny, not the random alignment of the stars and planets the day i was born.

the one true god gave man free will to exercise to his own glory or peril. fate is nothing but the abnegation of responsibility for sins. I need not sweep sins under the rug when careful contemplation of them and asking for them to be taken away serves the same purpose while also ensuring im a better person. fate mindedness leads to evil, responsibility leads one in the opposite direction.
