16. KALKI
"Far off rivers and lakes will be considered as Holy places for pilgrimage. People will not respect their parents, teachers or gurus. Different hair styles are considered as beauty. Man will only think of filling his belly. Bold talk only will be considered as truth or real".
"Thus when wickedness goes on increasing like this, only a strong man will be considered as chief. Coveters and heartless kings will plunder the money and women from the people. Robber people will leave their places and migrate and will lead very difficult lives. People will die because of mutual quarrels, famine, and excess taxation by the kings. They will suffer from hunger, thirst and a multitude of diseases. In Kali Yuga, the Varnashrama Dharma (religious duties) will vanish. People will become atheistic in their beliefs. Kings will forfeit their duties. People will go on telling lies without any cause. All the high caste people will come down to the level of the low caste people. The cows will be very short statured. The Sanyasis will live like family men. A man will consider only his wife's relatives as his own. All plants will be short statured. Clouds will not yield sufficient rain. There will be heavy lightning". Shrimad Bhagavatam 12:2
"In Kali Yuga, human beings will become shortsighted, unfortunate, gluttonous, lustful, and poverty stricken. The women, becoming unchaste, will freely wander from one man to the next. The ungodly people will speak and praise the Scriptures and will give their own interpretations. Even the Brahmins will be only after their bellies and sexual desires".
"The Brahmacharies will fail to execute their vows and become unclean. The householders will beg for alms (which is only for Sanyasi), the vanaprathas will live in the villages (not in forests or hermitages) and Sanyasi will become greedy for wealth".
"Women will eat much, will give birth to children, will be shameless and will be very hard and fighting each other. Businessmen will engage in petty commerce and earn their money by cheating. People will consider any degraded occupation quite acceptable. Teachers will teach and preach matters which they do not know. Because of famine, scarcity, paucity of rains, and because of heavy taxation by rulers, people will become like devils or demons in appearance. In Kali Yuga, people will hate even their friends for the sake of a little amount of money. They will even forsake their parents and children for their selfish desires". Shrimad Bhagavatam 12, 3
"In between Jesus Christ and His destroying Incarnation of Mahavishnu called as Kalki there is a time given to human beings to rectify themselves, for them to enter into the Kingdom of God, which in the Bible is called as Last Judgment."
