Aadi Shankaracharya has a special place in Hindu religion. In other words, we may say that the guardian and reviver of Hindu religion is also Aadi Shankaracharya. After him, there has been a revolution of the worship of the Hindu gods as a result of the propagation done by his disciples. His revered deity is God Shri Shankar. His venerable goddess is Parvati ji. Along with these, they worship Shri Vishnu ji and other gods. Especially, there is a rule of “Panch Dev Pooja”: - 1. Shri Brahma ji 2. Shri Vishnu ji 3. Shri Shankar ji 4. Sage Shri Parasar ji 5. Shri Krishna Dwaipayan alias Shri Ved Vyas ji are venerable.
It is written in the book “Jeevani Aadi Shankaracharya” that Aadi Shankaracharya was born 508 years before Jesus.
Then there is a prophecy in the book “Himalaya Teerth” which is of the time before the birth of Aadi Shankaracharya. It has been mentioned in it that Aadi Shankaracharya will be born after three thousand years of Kalyug would have passed.
Now let us investigate through a mathematical calculation, how much Kalyug has passed currently i.e. in 2012?
Aadi Shankaracharya ji was born 508 years before the birth of Jesus.
Since the birth of Jesus, it has been = 2012 years.
How many years have passed since Shankaracharya ji’s birth = 2012 + 508 = 2520 years.
If we calculate chronologically, then Shankaracharya was born after = 3000 years of Kalyug had passed.
In 2012, how many years of Kalyug had passed = 3000 + 2520 = 5520 years.
Now let us find out in which year 5505 years of Kalyug complete = 5520 - 5505 = 15 years before 2012.
2012 - 15 = 1997. In year 1997, 5505 years of Kalyug complete. According to Samvat, an Indian year finishes in the Falgun Month i.e. in February-March.
Those saints who believe that Shrimadbhagavat Gita was uttered 5151 years ago are wrong.

Currently, 5,530 years of the Kaliyuga have passed. Aadi Shankaracharya was born 508 years before the birth of Jesus. Since the birth of Jesus, it has been 2022 years. The number of years that have passed since Shankaracharya's birth is 2022 + 508 = 2530 years. If we calculate chronologically, Shankaracharya was born after 3000 years of Kaliyuga had passed. Therefore, as of 2023, 5530 years of Kaliyuga have passed.

As of now, 5,530 years of the Kaliyuga have passed. The total duration of the Kaliyuga is 432,000 years. Therefore, 432,000 - 5,530 = 426,470 years of Kaliyuga are still remaining.

No, we are currently in the initial period of the Kaliyuga. Only 5,530 years have passed out of the total duration of 432,000 years.

The current period of Kalyuga is considered the golden age because it is the destined 'Bhakti' period by Almighty Kabir when he Himself will be present on earth to provide a true path of worship, leading to liberation from the cycle of birth and death.

I found the article very interesting, especially because it's backed by evidence and knowledge. However, I've heard various opinions from different people regarding how much time has passed in Kalyug and the impending arrival of Kalki Avatar. Have the predictions made for the current period about Kalki Avatar's arrival?

Dear reader, we appreciate your interest in our article and your desire for evidence-based knowledge. The information we've presented in our article is rooted in authentic sources and our Holy Scriptures, which are difficult to dispute. Regarding Kalki Avatar, Kalyug has a total duration of 432,000 years, of which only 5,530 years have passed. Kalki Avatar, who is believed to be the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, is prophesied to appear towards the end of Kalyug, during a time when there will be a prevalence of unrighteousness. While there may not be a specific prediction for his arrival date, there are prophecies about a spiritual leader's emergence who will guide people toward salvation. We recommend reading the book "Jeene Ki Rah" and listening to the spiritual discourses of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj for deeper insights.
