Will Kaliyuga end in the year 2032 as said by some books?
A Girl devotee (Name hidden) asked like this:
“Hare Krishna Prabhuji. Prabhuji there is one scripture named Bhavishya Malika. Many devotees and astrologers are reading it and according to this scripture Satyug will begin from 2032. As per this scripture many things are true and as per prediction in 2024, dynamics of the whole world will start changing.
But, as per Srimad Bhagvatam age of Kaliyug is 4,32,000. Some even say that Kalki Bhagvan has appeared. Prabhuji can you pls guide more on this?”
REPLY:
See, there are hundreds of literatures written hundreds of years ago. Every literature gives some data about the Creations, the Period of events.
In this century, thousands of Books/newspapers and magazines in hundreds of languages are published every day.

If these writings somehow exist for centuries and if the people in the year 3100, ie, after 1000 years from now takes those books/magazines/newspapers, they will quote many versions of the same topic quoting from hundreds of books.
People may discuss like this:
“I read a Purana by Dr.Ambedkar that says that Buddhism is better than Hinduism”
“I read a Purana by one swami Vivekanandha that the service to the people is the service to the God”
“I read a Purana namely “Mann Ki Bath” by a ruler called Sri.Narendra Modi that speaks of all the aspects of life of the people of India 1000 years back”
Thus, we can’t predict how the people will see the present writings after 1000s of years.
This is what happening in the case of old puranas.

Mahabharatha is said to have been written 5000 years ago. However, there are different opinions among the researchers with regard to the age of puranas.
However, the general popular and acceptable belief is that the scriptures (Vedas, Mahabharatha and 18 Puranas) written/ collected by Vyasadeva should be atleast 5000 years old.
The Puranas written by Vyasadeva has been preached through mouth to mouth through centuries, even milleniums.
So, they too might have faced some changes. However, they are more reliable than other puranas as the source file had been written by Vyasadeva.
So, as per the Puranas written by Vyasadeva, the kaliyuga has a total of 4,32,000 years.
If we take their point correct, there is no symptom for the start of Satya yuga in 2032.
If satya yuga starts in the year 2032, Kalki avatar would have already happened. But, there is no sign of the Kalki avatar throughout India and the world.
If the Bhagavan comes to earth as an avatar, there will be many symptoms and indications.
Nothing exist now.
Now only the kaliyuga has started to show its true colours. The world is changing every 100 years. The world in the last century was totally different from the present world.

It seems that the developments (deterioations?) have been happening fast. So, some people believe that the end of kaliyuga is nearing.
Not so. If you read Mahabharatha, you can understand that all the adharma that is happening now was happening even 5000 years ago in Dvapara yuga even when Krishna came.
Even in the Treta yuga, the demonic persons like Ravana existed.
This means, except in Satya yuga, in all other yugas, adharma existed. But, the level of deterioration differs in every yuga. That’s all.
In this kaliyuga, still there are good people. There are devotional services here and there.
Of course, some quarrels are happening among the people, religions, etc. Still they are trying to follow some forms of religious practices.
So, there is a big due of deterioration further. As per Bhagavatham, many symptoms of kaliyuga are yet to happen. One example is that the people should lost their height to just three feet.
Many things are yet to happen.
So, kaliyuga is yet to advance, ie, deteriorate further. So, the year 2034 may not be true for the end of kaliyuga.
The duty in front of us is, without bothering about the end of kaliyuga we should escape from this kaliyuga by avoiding the next birth and going back to Krishna eternally.
