We are so much into the Kali Yuga (the fourth phase of the world’s fate) that we often end up thinking that the Rig Veda was a newspaper from earlier times. If it was, as I have heard people joke around, then they, if reading this, must also admit what a wonderful newspaper it must have been.

All the yugas in order would go as given here: Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dwapar Yuga, and Kali Yuga.

How did our ancient seers identify and calculate time so accurately?

How are they even so accurate?

Let’s have a look!

• Satya Yuga: 1.728 million years
• Treta Yuga: 1.296 million years
• Dwapara Yuga: 0.864 million years
• Kali Yuga: 0.432 million years

If you know that time runs parallelly, then you know that there are a total of 1.728 million years.

Now check this part.

• 432 million years x 4 = 1.728 million years.
• 432 million years x 3 = 1.296 million years
• 432 million years x 2 = 0.864 million years.
• 432 million years x 1 = 0.432 million years.

There is a parallel timeline divided into 0.432 million Earth years. Everything is happening now. The only thing that’s varying as per the timeline is the energy distribution through the parallel tracks, and where we are resurrecting the Ram Mandir in one direction, we are actually welcoming Shri Ram after he defeated Raavan and came back to Ayodhya.

Now check this part.

• 728 – 1.296 = 0.432 million years.
• 296 – 0.864 = 0.432 million years.
• 864 minus 0.432 = 0.432 million years.

It means there is a time gap of 0.432 million years after every Yuga, and these numbers denote the chaos between the end of one Yuga and the beginning of another.

This would also mean there is a Kali Yuga after every Yuga.

It depicts the chaotic period between two yugas when a certain kind of being is given the power to rule.

How they rule is measured by their power to restore order.

If man could do better with these 0.432 million years, they would have secured a place at a certain angle on Earth—a better one. But that does not mean all hope is lost.

If you have read LOTR, you must be aware of the haven, which is nothing but the 25-degree world from our world (which also has a calculation). We are this close to them, yet we are far away. Hence, Sai says we only have to remember them truly, from our hearts.

0.432 million years is a time span that also shows something else.

1. Shrinking of time from Satya Yuga to Kali Yuga

The theory of time shrinking says that when 0.432 x 4 million years exist, we get to see an expanded timeline. We also see people who live longer, are built differently, and have a very different kind of disposition.

Whereas for one living in the Kali Yuga, we have less time. We have more problems, and our life expectancy is way too low.

With time shrinking, we feel as though time is moving too fast, and it’s difficult to keep pace.

2. Expansion of time from the other side of the funnel

We also envision time expansion and the concept around it, mostly with each Yuga being smaller by a single multiple of a million years.

With time expansion in practice, people in Satya Yuga must have felt like time had stopped completely.

But does time compress alone?

No, mostly time expands and compresses with space. Ideally, it is always time-space compression or time-space expansion.

What do we learn from this Kali Yuga about all the yugas in order?

We learn a few fundamental aspects of this Kali Yuga.

1. Space and time are not constants but variables, which means space and time do not just keep expanding or compressing. They expand and contract like a wave, making a crest and trough.
2. Space and time are the x and y variables of an unknown chart, and our dimensional attributes (viz., length, breadth, and height) fit inside it.
3. If you note that Satya Yuga = time, then all the other three yugas are nothing but the dimensional attributes.
4. In such a case, we would like to take the example of the Pyramids of Giza, Egypt, into consideration for further explanation.

• Height: 481.4 feet
• Base length: 756.4 feet

It shows the length is twice the height. When extrapolated to incorporate the same law towards the Yugas, we can notice these findings:

Time: Satya Yuga = 1.728 units

Length: Treta Yuga = 1.296 units.

Height: Kali Yuga = 0.432 units.

Width: Dwapar Yuga: 0.864 units (twice the height)

Ideally, (1.728 – (1.296 + 0.432)) = 0.

What remains is the total value of 0.

The net of all 3 Yugas is ideally 0, as each balances the other.

The value that remains in this equation is 0.864 units.

Again, (0.864 + 0.432) units together will amount to 1.296 units (nothing but the value of Treta Yuga).

The net total of all these numbers (1.728 + 1.296 + 0.864 + 0.432) is 4.32 units.

It is nothing but ten times the number of 0.432 units.

Here is an interesting finding:

0.864 + 0.432 = 1.296 units.

1.296 +0.432 = 1.728 units

However, 1.728 is not equal to all the other three available units.

The number that stands out in all is 0.432 unit.

Even,

1.728 (1+7+2+8) numerologically equals to 18 that is equal to 9.

1.296 (1+2+9+6) is equal to 18 which is equal to 9.

0.864 is equal to 18 that is equivalent to 9 and so is 0.432 equal to 9.

Numerologically, 4+3+2 = 9.

Concluding observations

• Even 108 equals 9.
• We see that each Yuga is as though concentrated within another, and Dwapar Yuga and Kali Yuga are built together inside the Treta Yuga.
• Treta Yuga is split into Dwapar Yuga and Kali Yuga.
• We find the concepts of space-time expansion and time compression working very well within the Yugas. Compression and rarefaction are general attributes of a longitudinal wave.
• Time and space are not constant but rather fluidic or waveform in nature.
• Time and space bind our three-dimensional attributes—length, breadth, and height.

The only question that we must think about next is: why do we come back to 9? What is so significant about this number?
