Namaste,
The recent attack on our defense apparatus in JK and the senseless reaction to the precious loss of life by our honorable Home minister was forcing me to start a thread titled "Shameless, Thy name is Indian Hindus" under Mera Bhaarath Mahaan section. As we have been electing this Government for almost half century ever since the faux nick named as Indian Independence inspite of repeated similar incidents throughout I couldn't find any better adjective.
When ever a grave shameful incident occur, it has been our practise to blame it as the effects of Kaliyug. This predictable reaction wasn't acceptable to me, though I as an individual doesn't have the spine do anything that would change the system.
To pacify myself, I started reading materials explaining the demon Kali and about different Yugaas. Now readers would be wondering why this thread appearing in this section?
According my primitive understanding The demon Kali, Kali Yug and Kalki avtaar of Sreeman Naaraayan seem to go hand in hand. The "Sambhavaami yuge yuge" quote from BG support my view. But Hinduism is not just Vaishnava's way of thinking alone. Some Shaivites from the South even go the extent of differentiating their perspective entirely from Vedic / Puraanic beliefs and ideologies.
So, I would like to know whether the concept of Kali yug and the expected incarnation of Kalki Avtaar of Sreeman Naaraayan is acceptable to Shaivites?
Again I reiterate that my understanding on this subject is very much limited to information scattered on the web, so I am curious to know How Shaiva Siddhaantha view the growing anarchy in present world and what are the remedial measures explained in Shaiva scriptures.
If moderators or readers feel that this thread doesn't fit in this section, Kindly move it to the appropriate one.
Pranaam!!
