The Symptoms of Kali Yuga

All visitors of EternalReligion.org, please learn from this and not become like the rest. Don’t become a back stabber. Become good and stay good, even if others around you are treating you badly, always stay calm, always be on alert, always truthful, and always be good to others in all situations. The evil people will fool people, but they will never be able to fool God. Lord Krishna is present in every atom and He is the witness to all our actions and He will punish the evil appropriately. One can get away by breaking the law of the land and escape from the police, but nobody can escape from law of nature, Karma, which is administered by God Himself.

Kali Yuga is the current age and it is advancing very fast.

The mentality of many people of today is as follows.

  1. Person A will feed person B for 50 years, but if after this, if one day is missed. Person B will vomit on person A. No Appreciation and gratefulness.
  2. Person A will Maintain person B for many years, but if for some reason person A can no longer maintain person B and himself. Person B will kick person A. No appreciation and gratefulness.
  3.  Person A will help person B for many years, but when person A needs the help. Person B will run away.
  4.  The sweet talkers who are full of lies will easily capture and convince most people. Very few will be interested in those who speak the truth.
  5. Even among the so-called religious people. If person A helps person B to find God. Once person B finds God, he/she will kick person A. No appreciation and gratefulness.
  6.  Many people are self-centered, they are only interested in their own self.
  7.  When it comes to collecting, people will behave like sheep, but when it comes to giving, they will behave like wolves.
  8.  Many people are tigers in goat clothing.
  9.  People will break vows with ease and no shame.
  10.  People will lose all shyness in behaving properly.

The below are some verses from the Shrimad-Bhagavatam Canto 12, Chapter 2 which support the above points:

Text 1:
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: Then, O King, religion, truthfulness, cleanliness, tolerance, mercy, duration of life, physical strength and memory will all diminish day by day because of the powerful influence of the Age of Kali.
Text 2:
In Kali-yuga, wealth alone will be considered the sign of a man’s good birth, proper behavior and fine qualities. And law and justice will be applied only on the basis of one’s power.
Text 3:
Men and women will live together merely because of superficial attraction, and success in business will depend on deceit. Womanliness and manliness will be judged according to one’s expertise in sex, and a man will be known as a brāhmaṇa just by his wearing a thread.
Text 4:
A person’s spiritual position will be ascertained merely according to external symbols, and on that same basis people will change from one spiritual order to the next. A person’s propriety will be seriously questioned if he does not earn a good living. And one who is very clever at juggling words will be considered a learned scholar.
Text 5:
A person will be judged unholy if he does not have money, and hypocrisy will be accepted as virtue. Marriage will be arranged simply by verbal agreement, and a person will think he is fit to appear in public if he has merely taken a bath.
Text 6:
A sacred place will be taken to consist of no more than a reservoir of water located at a distance, and beauty will be thought to depend on one’s hairstyle. Filling the belly will become the goal of life, and one who is audacious will be accepted as truthful. He who can maintain a family will be regarded as an expert man, and the principles of religion will be observed only for the sake of reputation.
Text 7:
As the earth thus becomes crowded with a corrupt population, whoever among any of the social classes shows himself to be the strongest will gain political power.
