The Management of  CHATURYUG (Four Epochs)

 

The benefit of the New year is just like taking bath in the holy river the Ganga or the solar eclipse .On the beginning of the new year our body remains healthy and with no disease by consuming the tender leaves of Neem tree mixed with cuminseed, black pepper, asafoetida (Heeng)and a little salt.

 

According to Shrimad Bhagwat Puran the age of Brahma who gets his birth from Purushottam Bhagwan Vishnu is one hundred years.This age of Brahma is divided into twp parts – former fifty years and latter fifty years.There is one Chaturyugi of Satyug, Treta, Dwapur and Kaliyug.Thus a day of Brahma is one thousand years and the night of one thousand years.One thousand days of Brahma is equal to one Ghati of Vishnu.There is half Kala of Shiva made up by twelve lacs of Ghatis of Vishnu.There is one Brahmakshar of one billion half Kalas.

 

According to Solar theory the age of Brahma who is the sole creator of  the wholw creation is one hundred years. By now half of his age has expired .Hence the first half of his age is over. Now the period of the first month, the first day, the first fortnight and thirteen Ghatis, forty two Pals and three Akshars of the first day is over. According to sage Vyas fourteen Manus rule in one day of Brahma. The names of these Manus are as follows:-

 

1-. Swambhuv  Manu, 2- Swarochis Manu, 3- Uttam.4- Tamas,5- Raivat. 6- Chakshus. 7- Vaivaswat. 8- Savarni, 9- Daksh Savarni, 10- Brahma Savarni, 11- Dharma Savarni, 12- Rudra Savarni, 13- Dev Savarni, and 14- Indra Savarni.

By now a period of six Manus of the first day of Brahma is over. Now the period of seventh Manu that is Vaivaswat Manu is running.28th Chaturyugi is running. The period of Satyug, Treta and Dwapar is over. Now the first phase of Kaliyug that is going on. And 5111 human years are over and 426889 years are left. One Manu consists of 71 Mahayug. The kingdom of 14 Manus is called one  Kalpa . In the end of every Kalpa there is the period of transition.This transition is equal to the period of one year of Satyug. In the beginning of every Kalpa there is Brahma Kalpa and in the end there is Pad Kalpa . In this way there are 32 Kalpas in all.
