On why Krishna will be relevant now

Kali Yuga   "age of vice" is the last of the four stages that the world goes through as part of the cycle of yugas described in the Indian scriptures. Most interpreters of Hindu scriptures believe that earth is currently in Kali Yuga. Some, such as Swami Sri Yukteswar, Sri Aurobindo and Paramhansa Yogananda  believe that it is now near the beginning of Dvapara Yuga.

If we look at the table of yugas (http://bit.ly/myUiAi)  we can see that we are currently  in the Ascending Dwapara Yuga proper from 1900-3900 AD. In 2011 we are in the Kali subyuga of the Dwapara main yuga but this is  about to end  when we enter the Dwapara subyuga of the same main yuga (2100-2500). This can be loosely related to the change that many of us are expecting in the Mayan calendar.

Dvapara Yuga or Dwapara Yuga is the third out of four yugas, or ages, described in the scriptures of Hinduism. This yuga comes after Treta Yuga and is followed by Kali Yuga in the descending  part of the spiral of yugas. According to the Puranas the hero of Dwaapara Yuga was  Krishna .

There are two pillars of religion in the Dvapara Yuga: Kama and Artha.

All this should tell us why Kama and Artha and the gospel of the hero Krishna is going to be important in the coming period
