“Each yuga lasts for 3000 years, by celestial
measurements; but one celestial year is the equivalent of
3600 years of human time, so that the four yugas cover a
span of 43,200,000 mortal years. Each of the four yugas …
possesses special characteristics of good and evil… . In
Kaliyuga righteousness, virtue, and goodness completely
disappear. Rites and sacrifices are abandoned as mere
superstitions. Anger, distress, hunger, and fear prevail, and
rulers behave like highwaymen, seizing power and riches in
various ways.” Gods, Demons, and Others.
