Coming Soon: Kalki-avatara
BY: BALAVIDYA DASA
Jan 19, USA (SUN) — We won't enquire from where Lokaguru dasa gets his distorted sense of logic and propensity to word jugglery, but their recent product, as posted recently on the Sampradaya Sun, certainly doesn't hold up against the plain statements of the ripened fruit of the desire tree of Vedic knowledge, the Srimad-Bhagavatam. Nowhere do we find in the Bhagavatam, the odd assertion that Kalki-avatara appears at any other time than the junction of Kali-yuga and Satya-yuga. Moreover, the odd idea that Kalki appeared within Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu five-hundred years ago and therefore will not appear at the end of this yuga is simply mistaken. One might as well say that Buddha did not really appear about twenty-six hundred years ago in this Kali-yuga-as described in the Bhagavatam-because he was to appear within the form of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu five-hundred years ago.
Certainly all the avataras are eternally present within the form of the Supreme Lord as He is Their ultimate source. However, when this Ultimate Supreme Lord appears in a yuga, this event does not preclude the individual appearances of the scheduled avataras for that same yuga - as we have just seen with Lord Buddha in this Kali-yuga. Similarly, Kalki-avatara will certainly appear at the end of this Kali-yuga.
Of course, if Lokaguru dasa does not accept the plain statement of the Bhagavatam as below, then he is welcome to wait for about six-thousand lifetimes and see for himself - after all, Kalki-avatara's birth-address and father's name is given. However, he should carefully consider this course of action because the Vedic definition of an atheist is "one who does not accept the Vedic sastra" and Kalki has a striking way of dealing with atheists.
Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.3.25:
TEXT
Thereafter, at the conjunction of two yugas, the Lord of the Creation will take His birth as the Kalki incarnation and become the son of Visnu Yasa. At this time, the rulers of the earth will have degenerated into plunderers.
PURPORT
Here is another foretelling of the advent of Lord Kalki, the incarnation of Godhead. He is to appear at the conjunction of the two yugas, namely at the end of Kali-yuga and the beginning of Satya-yuga. The cycle of the four yugas, namely Satya, Treta, Dvapara and Kali, rotates like the calendar months. The present Kali-yuga lasts 432,000 years, out of which we have passed only 5,000 years after the Battle of Kuruksetra and the end of the regime of King Pariksit. So there are 427,000 years balance yet to be finished. Therefore at the end of this period, the incarnation of Kalki will take place, as foretold in the Srimad-Bhagavatam. The name of His father, Visnu Yasa, a learned brahmana, and the village Sambhala are also mentioned. As above mentioned, all these foretellings will prove to be factual in chronological order. That is the authority of Srimad-Bhagavatam.
Srimad-Bhagavatam 4.22.36: PURPORT
At the end of this Kali-yuga, the Lord will appear as the incarnation of Kalki, and His only business will be to kill all human beings on the surface of the globe. After that killing, another golden age will begin.
Srimad-Bhagavatam 9.15.33: PURPORT
This is only the beginning of Kali-yuga, but at the end of Kali-yuga the entire population will consist of mlecchas because no one will follow the Vedic principles. At that time the incarnation Kalki will appear. Mleccha-nivaha-nidhane kalayasi kara-balam. He will kill all the mlecchas indiscriminately with his sword.
