ON YUGAS

Religious people keep repeating that this is the worst time, materialistic Kali yuga; Satya yuga was far better… I grew up listening to these talks. One day I was just comparing the present with the past and it was a shocking discovery: king Harishchandra, the most truthful being on Earth, suffered in Satya yuga to the level when he had to auction his wife and son on the crossroad. He had to sell them off to get some money. Then nobody was giving him even a piece of bread to eat – and he had to sell himself to the raja of Benares, who made him guard one of his cremation areas.

The taxation was so severe back then, that when his son died and his wife brought him for cremation – he took half of her clothes as tax.

If I compare this time with the current century there will be a dramatic difference: if somebody tries to sell his wife and son – he will be severely beaten by the mob, police will arrest him. I have moved around a lot and have a firm conviction: if you ask for bread or food – nobody will say “ no”. People might not give you money, but no one will deny you food… You may knock at any door – and the ladies of the house will graciously give you rotis, immediately. If a lonely man dies – people will gather, will collect money and take a body for cremation without any questions. In my opinion, present times are far better than so-called Satya yuga.

Q: That’s because the basic necessities are provided?

Guruji: Yes, they are. The sense of sharing is much more common and developed. Otherwise we will not have so many bhandaras where people are distributing food. Most of the religious organizations started to distribute food.

You obviously heard about universal income theory: people came up with the idea of division of capital – so people could stop working. Equal universal income is a thing which came up from the grounds of socialism – there is no need to work, only those who are willing to work will be able to continue.

The accumulation of capital in the world is such that by paying for the basic necessities you can save a person from meaningless labor.

Guruji: The idea is taking shape… I’m saying – decentralization. End of the business empire. If you don’t have to worry about kitchen money – than it opens great opportunities; we will learn about capabilities, the capacities of the creative human mind. The art, the poetry – so many things could be explored.

If you stop just fighting for survival – then you can produce so much…

Guruji: You can relax and think… We don’t know what miracles we can discover then.

Perhaps it’s very much against the interests of capitalism, isn’t it?

Guruji: And against the monarchy system, yes. Capitalism is just the shadow of monarchy. As an unemployed person I like this idea of universal income – it works.

Kali yuga

Kali yuga: duration, the 1944 end, and the new era

Kali yuga

what do you think – now is Kali yuga and it lasts for particular time frame?

Guruji: Kali yuga was 432000 years. It ended at 1944 and it’s absolutely different time we’re going through now.

does the actions of human beings influence on duration on any yuga?

Guruji: No. It is duration of the yuga, which influences human beings.

how this yuga finished? Where is the information about it?

Guruji: there is my personal discovery. Not everything is written in books. I will ask you very simple question: every religious book – from hindu to Christian to puran – when they are predicting future, coming time – they are not saying anything about mobile phones, airplanes, electricity, air conditioning. That means – they doesn’t know. If they could not see that – it means it’s absolutely new era, which even the great seers from the past were unable to see or understand.

what about Vimanika Shastra – they describe flying objects?

Guruji: but that formulas are so complicated – no one enable to decipher them. Or maybe they are from the future; maybe some time traveler left them in the past and we’re thinking they are in the past. Nobody knows anything.

what is your opinion about Nostradamus predictions?

Guruji: it depends on how you interpret them. I read few different interpretations and there was one from dr. Frank Brune, some French man. He actually deciphered that Iraq will fight against the West, which happened. And about empire will lost – Russian and british empire are lost. It depends on interpretation. And also he said that the last battle will be the battle on the banks of Ganges. Now I’m worry what will happen.

We read in almost every religion, that Apocalypse is coming, everything will gone, the world will be destroyed. But I’m very simple grass root level person and if someone will ask me, what will remain after Apocalypse, when everything will gone? As a simple grass root man I will say – ghosts will remain. Spirits and ghosts will remain. This is what I think.

We can also make statement here: blessed are ghosts and spirits for they shall inherit the kingdom of Earth.

Kali Yuga and interpretations of historical time

Yuga interpretation, ecological limits and modern social change

I’d like to ask You about divisions of Kali yuga and when Kali yuga started?

Guruji: time period of Kali yuga which is written in our puranas is 432000 years – that was a time period of Kali yuga; and they say that Kali yuga is the time of absolute darkness: no human rights, nothing, you’re just wandering in ignorance – that’s it. In my opinion it ended in 1944; I will just point out to one obvious thing: most of the world calendars – whether it is Indian calendar or Gregorian calendar- they only counting down only last 2000 years. So 430000 years are already gone and they began to count last 2000 years – and they were very important. According to Indian calendar, Vikram samvat, 1944 was the year 2000 – and you can see, how much the world changed. There was big war, monarchy was swept away from the world like a miracle, democracy came. In all puranic descriptions of different yugas – democracy is nowhere mentioned, always it was king. That tells me – now the system of yugas is over, we’re in the golden age now, where human rights are been discussed, animal rights are been discussed and it’s considered very fashionable to be vegetarian and practice yoga. Humanity is evolving in a very positive direction – this is what I think. Kali yuga is gone. The age of darkness is no more. Every type of information is available: Google-baba is omnipresent, he knows everything.

what about Kriya yuga – are we in Kriya yuga now?

Guruji: yes, it’s a new creation: instead of spelling it like “kriya” you should start to spelling it like “crea” from creation, because it creates a new you. When you’re practicing Kriya to the best of your abilities – your vibration changing the surroundings also. The nature will bloom, the society will become better and better with that. Maybe Kriya yoga is giving support to the evolution of mankind.

Kali Yuga and interpretations of historical time

Golden-age interpretation and individual freedom

back to the golden age: You think that the concept of yugas is gone?

Guruji: because we worship past too much – we just keep limiting our thinking in 4 yugas: Satya, Treta, Dwapara and Kali – which Brahma created. Since Shiva started the revolt against the heavenly gods – the system of 4 yugas has ended in 1944. There was no mention of democracy ever, the globalization nobody care about; the living conditions of the normal person are much-much better than they used to be in the king’s time. You’re free to achieve your dreams if you have enough talent inside of you. It’s much better time. And it will become more and more refined, as the time will passed. Yoga yuga is coming: yoga is taking you beyond any organization and religion, you don’t have surrender your soul to anybody. Keep it yourself, develop your consciousness and be free.

do You see the new generation of kids, teenagers and young people becoming so obsessed and so driven to a digital gadgets and media and experiencing life through it?

Guruji: I think it’s initial shock, it will pass.

the individuality of the person is getting suddenly affected of the flow?

Guruji: it’s the very short time: nobody was listening to you before – now you have the freedom of expression. This is initial euphoria, it will pass.

so we can save independent our individuality?

Guruji: more and more and more: they are there for you, you’re not there for that.

KILL OR BE KILLED

WHERE IS KALKI AVATAR — puranas, Hanuman Ji and the 1944 observation

WHERE IS KALKI AVATAR

about prediction of Kalki avatar – in the end of Kali yuga: how it corresponds to?

Guruji: Hanuman Ji used that word: Parabrahman Parameshwar himself will take the human form, he never mentioned Kalki. But Kalki is written in ancient puranas.

how this name came into be?

Guruji: it will be the last avatar of Vishnu, he will be born in a brahmin family and he will kill all the bad people.

it’s the special timing predicted?

Guruji: no

not connection with Kali yuga at all?

Guruji: it was to come in the end of Kali yuga. But in my observation Kali yuga ended in 1944.

so where is he?

Guruji: maybe avatar – Parabrahman Parameshwar – is coming now, to start a new age.

does it mean that the prophecy is not come to real?

Guruji: we will have to wait in this 21 st century. Kali yuga ended: 432000 years was the time of Kali yuga and it is very interesting to know that most of the calendars just counting down the last 2000 years. Indian calendar, Gregorian calendar and other calendars also. The 1944 was the year 2000 in Indian calendar – and suddenly everything is different after that. Meek inherited the Earth.

but where is avatar?

Guruji: we’re still waiting( laughing). Hanuman Ji told me – he would come in 21 st century. Only 19 years has gone.

nothing in the scale of Time…

Mother Earth: Our God

Castes of Ages — brahmana, kshatriya, vaishya, shudra

Castes of Ages, and other discussions

Creation started in br?hma?a (priestly class) age. R?va?a was the last br?hma?a king. He ruled for about 311 billion years. The destruction of Dak?a's fire ceremony marked the beginning of the end of br?hma?a age.

With the Rama-R?va?a war, br?hma?a age ended and k?atriya (warrior class) age began. In k?atriya age, kingly class ruled. K?atriya age lasted 1.7-1.8 million years.

In 1947-50, k?atriya age ended and vai?ya (trade class) age started. Democracy was introduced, and companies (corporations) started ruling. ICS exams that Britishers introduced has made the public sector more powerful. Devotion and yoga has increased and will continue to rise.

Trade and commerce is the only way to bring all races together. Corporations will be ruling for a long time.

When everything is sold and purchased, and you have everything but you still need service, then??dra (service class) age will start. Now the question is, would vai?ya age and ??dra age go together or one after another? I have a feeling that they would both go together.

Nostradamus and year 2000 of Vikram Samvata

Gheranda Samhita, 3rd chapter, 65 verse.

Nostradamus's Prophecies for Year 2000: A Different Calendar?

[Couple of days back there was an interesting discussion on Nostradamus's prophecies. Someone noted how nothing drastic really happened in year 2000, contrary to what was prophecized by Nostradamus.]

Guruji's reply: "We primarily look at year 2000 (A.D. - anno Domini) of Gregorian calendar. However, lets consider year 2000 of Vikram Samvata (the Hindu calendar, which is currently running year 2060), which comes to around 1944 A.D."

"When you look back, many defining events of history took place around that time. Second world war was at its peak, a major destructive power was unleashed upon the world in the form of two atomic bombs. After the war, the political structure of the world had a complete overhaul. Monarchy was swept clean almost everywhere: no one could have ever imagined that kings would be reduced to a common man's level, the sun over the British empire set, USA and Russia came forward as two super-powers, India gained independence and came forward as world's biggest democracy, communal clashes between Hindus and Muslims surfaced for the first time at such a mass level, states were divided including partition of India. For the first time, the call for non-violence was made, from India, and that too right in the middle of a war - that was almost inconceivable in olden days. The concept of non-cooperation was put forward as a tool for peaceful protest. These concepts evolved only around year 2000 Vikram Samvata. With the formation of United Nations, all countries came forward to work together for world peace and development. We started talking about equality, human rights, that all men are born equal, one vote per person. With the birth of Israel, after centuries of persecution Jews around the world found a place they could call home! These are not only revolutionary changes, but even evolutionary!."

"Thus we find that the year 2000 of Vikram Samvata was indeed very significant. Considering all this, it appears more appropriate and accurate to base Nostradamus's predictions for year 2000 onVikram Samvata calendar. Its definitely something which requires further research."

Satya/Kali reassessment

Most of the Indians believe, that satya yuga was extremely good; but I will give you one example of king Harishchandra – the most truthful king ever. He suffered so much, he had to sale his wife and son on the open market; nobody willing to give him even morsel of food – so he had to sale himself also to the Dhumraj of Kashi. The taxes was so strong that even when his own son died – he had to take the half clothes of his old wife, whatever she was wearing. Now they say – this is very bad age, this is Kali yuga, but as I moved around India, I never gone outside except Nepal, and my own experience is: any house – if you will simply ask for food, nobody will say “no”. and if you want to sale your wife and son in the open market – first the public will give you the severe beating and you will be arrested by police. If you’re going to sale yourself – nobody will buy you, police will come and take you up. If there is the dead body and nobody take care – people gather immediately, pull their sources, get enough money for the cremation. This is the difference between Satya yuga and Kali yuga. In India – or maybe all around the world – any lady of the house will never refuse a hungry man the piece of bread. This is my firm belief and I’ve seen it happening with my own eyes, some of my own experiences are like that. I will support now. In Satya yuga not even the piece of bread was given to king Harishchandra – because he was so truthful, he suffered so much. Now it’s too big change, too big difference; I think human beings are becoming human, finally. Of course we need more refinement; and I think more time will pass and we’ll get more and more refinement. I noticed when we were in college – it was recently democracy, but king’s impact was still there – and it was lot of street violence, many students were fighting in college. Nowadays we don’t see so much street violence; even in college it is more or less peaceful, not much problems are going on. Some problems are there, but not to that scale. I think we’re improving and it gives us hope – we are improving as human beings. So finally we will become human.

I was moving around, not even half a rupee in my pocket; if people were not ready to support me, give me food and shelter – I don’t think I would have survive. If I could manage to survive – it gives a great hope. Even unknown person, whom I’ve never seen before – they were willing to help. Food is not a problem in India now: you ask and you will get food. And I’ve noticed, if you even doesn’t ask anyone – you just lie down beside the road in any city – one day somebody will observe, then some shop owners will start to come, give you chai, toast, some food – so many things will come. it was never like this before! We’re in good times. And the biggest thing, which never happen in the vedic times or in king’s times: nowadays legally we are all equal. That is fantastic, too big thing. Before that – high-born, low-born, this blue-blood thing, royal family, not so royal family; but now legally – we are equal. If we’re equal legally than it’s fine.

Golden age, sharing and blood moons

Rare find guruji.com.ua/novosti/darshans201911.html — Wayback capture 19 Apr 2026. Page undated; the URL carries 2019-11.

Q: what after – the golden age will come?

Guruji: we’re always hope for the golden age. We have been hoping for the golden age for thousands of years. Why hope for golden age? Gold was always the main reason country command for the human beings. Let’s hope this age is going to be the grassroots level age: we will take life as life, a being as a being – maybe then it will be a very good age. Gold is the main cause for the conflict. Maybe the feeling of sharing will be more – I think it’s very needed.

Q: from where so much attention to the gold was coming? It exists so much more rare minerals or metals in the earth…

Guruji: gold is a noble metal – you cannot corrupt it, it continue no oxidation, nothing; it is less in number. When they started this trade and commerce thing – they decided this is the best thing as money. Even nowadays we use paper money, but if it backs for the gold – then the currency is strong. Gold is gold.

Q: should we notice some special points like eclipses?

Guruji: it was already two blood moons in 2018- they happen maybe after 1,5 centuries; maybe we will see more magic in the world.

Q: speaking about yesterday conversation: kal yuga – the yuga of Time?

Guruji: why before second world war nobody was talking about Time? Nobody discussed Time before. My understanding is: from 1944 Kali yuga ended and maybe the Kaal yuga begin. First time Time was discussed by scientists. You can say that Time unites everything whatever is happened. Now all the branches of science begin to talk about Time – from physics even to genetics.

Q: conclusion is: this is time to learn about Time?

Guruji: first time scientists mentioning Time – the words from Gita are coming to everyone.
