The last of the four stages (or ages or yugas) the world goes through as part of a 'cycle of yugas' described in the Sanskrit scriptures. The other ages are called Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, and Dvapara Yuga.
Hindus believe that human civilization degenerates spiritually during the Kali Yuga, which is referred to as the Dark Age because in it people are as far away as possible from God. A discourse by Markandeya in the Mahabharata identifies some of the attributes of Kali Yuga....
>Rulers will become unreasonable: they will levy taxes unfairly.
>Rulers will no longer see it as their duty to promote spirituality, or to protect their subjects: they will become a danger to the world.
>People will start migrating, seeking countries where wheat and barley form the staple food source.
>Avarice and wrath will be common. Humans will openly display animosity towards each other. Ignorance of dharma will occur.
>People will have thoughts of murder with no justification and will see nothing wrong in that.
>Lust will be viewed as socially acceptable and sexual intercourse will be seen as the central recreation of life.
>Sin will increase exponentially, while virtue will fade and cease to flourish.
>People will become addicted to intoxicating drinks and drugs.
Kalki, also called Kalkin, is the tenth avatar of Hindu god Vishnu to end the Kali Yuga, one of the four periods in endless cycle of existence (krita) in Vaishnavism cosmology. He is described in the Puranas as the avatar who rejuvenates existence by ending the darkest and destructive period to remove adharma and ushering in the Satya Yuga, while riding a white horse with a fiery sword. The description and details of Kalki are inconsistent among the Puranic texts. He is, for example, only an invisible force destroying evil and chaos in some texts, while an actual person who kills those who persecute others, and portrayed as someone leading an army of Brahmin warriors in some. His mythology has been compared to the concepts of Messiah, Apocalypse, Frashokereti and Maitreya in other religions.
"It is said that towards the end of this yuga, Kalki will return riding on a white horse to do battle with Kali and his dark forces. The world will suffer a fiery cataclysm that will destroy all evil, and a new age (the next Satya Yuga of the following Mahayuga), will begin."
"Kalki" will act with unprecedented ruthlessness. Contrarily to Adolf Hitler, He will spare not a single one of the enemies of the divine Cause: not a single one of its outspoken opponents but also not a single one of the lukewarm, of the opportunists, of the ideologically heretical, of the racially bastardised, of the unhealthy, of the hesitating, of the all-too-human; not a single one of those who, in body or in character or mind, bear the stamp of the fallen Ages.
Lets not forget the Greeks also had world ages which were associated with word ages. The kali yuga is equivelant to the greek Iron age. see also; m.youtube.com/watch?v=E4Kou9TGdi8

and for the Christians who might knee jerk over this, Vishnu is syncretic with Jesus Christ.
you type words and dont even understand their meaning 1 year=365 days 1 year is like 1 day 1000 years + 365 = 365000 years this is just a simple example, not accurate
The saddest words of tongue or pen, Evola was right again.

Each religion is one cog of truth in the infinitely turning machine of life and history. Cycles within cycles and our souls are tethered to it. When the cycles intersect and change, so do we.
Benjamin Ward
so kali yuga is at least 12000 years old
im not hindu but i do see some trends with this idea: civilizations go through patterns
Asher Lee
"Kalki" sounds like Jesus at the second coming

Have you been outside recently? Morality is nearly absent in the west.
David Brooks
Ok but humanity has been around before then. Think Neanderthal and Heidelberg Man.
Oh and Homo erectus started nearly 2 million years ago.
Joshua Edwards
these are just the ones that survived the last end of kali yuga, the cycle has repeated itself many times

Chapter 16 of the Bhagavad Gita describes the dark forces at work in the world: >O son of Prtha, in this world there are two kinds of created beings. One is called the divine and the other demonic. I have already explained to you at length the divine qualities. Now hear from Me of the demoniac. >Those who are demoniac do not know what is to be done and what is not to be done. Neither cleanliness nor proper behavior nor truth is found in them. >They say that this world is unreal, that there is no foundation and that there is no God in control. It is produced of sex desire, and has no cause other than lust. >Following such conclusions, the demoniac, who are lost to themselves and who have no intelligence, engage in unbeneficial, horrible works meant to destroy the world.
>The demoniac, taking shelter of insatiable lust, pride and false prestige, and being thus illusioned, are always sworn to unclean work, attracted by the impermanent. >They believe that to gratify the senses unto the end of life is the prime necessity of human civilization. Thus there is no end to their anxiety. Being bound by hundreds and thousands of desires, by lust and anger, they secure money by illegal means for sense gratification. >The demoniac person thinks: So much wealth do I have today, and I will gain more according to my schemes. So much is mine now, and it will increase in the future, more and more. He is my enemy, and I have killed him; and my other enemy will also be killed. I am the lord of everything, I am the enjoyer, I am perfect, powerful and happy. I am the richest man, surrounded by aristocratic relatives. There is none so powerful and happy as I am. I shall perform sacrifices, I shall give some charity, and thus I shall rejoice. In this way, such persons are deluded by ignorance. >Thus perplexed by various anxieties and bound by a network of illusions, one becomes too strongly attached to sense enjoyment and falls down into hell. >Self-complacent and always impudent, deluded by wealth and false prestige, they sometimes perform sacrifices in name only without following any rules or regulations. >Bewildered by false ego, strength, pride, lust and anger, the demon becomes envious of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is situated in his own body and in the bodies of others, and blasphemes against the real religion. >Those who are envious and mischievous, who are the lowest among men, are cast by Me into the ocean of material existence, into various demoniac species of life. >Attaining repeated birth amongst the species of demoniac life, such persons can never approach Me. Gradually they sink down to the most abominable type of existence.
Parker Martin
>There are three gates leading to this hell-lust, anger, and greed. Every sane man should give these up, for they lead to the degradation of the soul. >The man who has escaped these three gates of hell, O son of Kunti, performs acts conducive to self-realization and thus gradually attains the supreme destination. >But he who discards scriptural injunctions and acts according to his own whims attains neither perfection, nor happiness, nor the supreme destination. >One should understand what is duty and what is not duty by the regulations of the scriptures. Knowing such rules and regulations, one should act so that he may gradually be elevated.
Oliver Scott
Truly Magnificent is it not? The One whose Magnificence is Mystery
>There are three gates leading to this hell-lust, anger, and greed how the fuck do I get rid of lust, the other 2 were easy, but the lust one is really thought.
there just isnt that much to look forward to otherwise, I meditated many times, asked for direction and purpose, but the only thing I concluded is to become a monk.

What is required to join Kalki in putting an end to the clownworld?
If you read the Kalki Purana you'd know we are still nowhere close to the end of days for Kali Yuga.
The Sun will be blotted out from clouds and the earth is an irradiated wasteland. No topics on religion, theology or philosophy will exist. Human Civilizations will be savage, tribal and barbaric. Only the strongest clans will rule the earth horrifically. Technology is gone, medicine is gone, goodness is gone.
The last avatar of Visnu will raise a kingdom and army then set out to conquer all four directions of earth, smiting the demons, healing the earth and renewing humanity again.
Again in this world we go out to the sandbox to play God.... Then cry to God to come reincarnate every age to clean up our mess. Irony.

IMO the time scale is wrong. there must be some sort of miscommunication that happened
yeah i thought them more in tune with the Zodiac it does split into fourths perfectly and Aquarius is the Spiritual Rebirth times with Kali Yuga and is also the end time prophecy for the Parable of the Water Bearer
umm what? Jesus would have been a theocratic national socialist >prove me wrong pro-tip you may be unable to and the SAME jews Hitler "gassed" are named by CHRIST
the reason everyone uses it is like the Prussian Education Model, its not the nicest or best way of doing things, but it works, and until something better comes along, go with what works
I've been thinking about this. The highest levels of Freemasonry, all the Elites, all the old great civilizations and inventors (the 1000 year Christian middle ages were so devoid of accomplishment I seriously believe it never happened, and its the year 1019 now) are all low key Pagans. Look at every Superbowl show, all the music videos and government buildings all the signs are there, they know this world is Pagan and reincarnation is a fact. The question is why hide it and push monotheism? I've heard the highest masons learn that you get to choose to reincarnate and how, essentially getting infinite do overs, and this truth is hidden to prevent mass nigger kamikaze riots. Whats the point of being good if nothing matters right?
Or another darker theory: Yes, this is a Pagan world and reincarnation is a fact souls are immortal and cycle through countless lifetimes, and there are many gods and demons. Some demons like Yahwey, trick humans into promising their immortal souls to the demon, to eat. This is one way to escape the Dhamic cycle, I suppose. All the Christians I've met don't have any plans for the billions and trillions of years they think they will be in Heaven for. If you actually think about it, being imprisoned in a realm with a demon is hell. And people ask for it, do it willingly, and preach for others to sell their souls to the demon too.
Yes basically that exactly see this pic i mean what is the Difference? one God with Angels Many gods with one Supreme God?
for example Jesus = Ye=Zeus = Zeus = Jupiter he could also be Zeus to Apollo and Helios Osiris to Horus and Ra i have found quite a few similarities between most religions and the Monotheism is normally attributed to the ONE TRUE GOD Divine Light / Spirit mysterious and unknowable yes everywhere and in all; The Father / Aether / Brahman / Monad / An
Funny fact about kali yuga and the clown world, they are the one and the same. That you probably already knew, but it was also in the past. All cultures have a concept of a dark age. One aspect of european winter festivities were carnivals and masquarades, kind of mimicry of the dark age. A day when fools were made kings, and collapse of order for a short time. As winter was seen as a time of death, before spring brings new life. It's not a part of christmas, as christianity took root, some holidays and festivals were moved to other days or replaced.
Yes, it's clearly seen. Trippy though is the cyclical calendar of hindubuddhism, which could land us in late kali. Depending on how it treats abortions that is...
