Krishna Seva

[Prashant]

Thanks Dattubhai for sharing that information. But if Ram lived for 11111 years than a question arises, what was the difference between Ram and Krishna's age. I thought it to be couple thousand years but not 11111 years. Anyone??

JAY SHRI KRISHNA.
Prashantji,When Shri Ram were on Bhutal it was time of TRETA YUG and when Shri Krishna were on Bhutal It was end of DWAPAR YUG.So complete Dwapar was over and years of Dwapar is in Thousands,roughly four hundred thousand years.
Hope some vaishnav will give correct figure.

Jai Shri Krishna,

Here it is in detail Dattubhai as per your request

When explaining the various measurements of time, the Vishnu Purana (Book One, Chapter Three) and the Srimad-Bhagavatam (3.11.19), along with the Bhagavad-gita (8.17) and the Vayu Purana (Chapter 57) and others, such as the Mahabharata as quoted above, all agree on the measurements of the durations of the yugas, as explained below.

In the explanations of the measurements of time found therein, one cycle of the four yugas together is 12,000 years of the demigods, called divine years. Each of these years is composed of 360 days, and each of their days is equal to one human year. So Satya Yuga (or Krita-yuga) is 4000 divine years in length, Treta-yuga is 3000 divine years in length, Dvapara-yuga is 2000 divine years in length, and Kali-yuga is 1000 divine years long, with the addition of the conjoining portions of the Sandhya and Sandhyansa.

In this way, each yuga is preceded by a period called a Sandhya, which is as many hundred years in length as there are thousands of years in that particular yuga. Each yuga is also followed by a period of time known as a Sandhyansa, which is also as many hundreds of years in length as there are thousands of years in the yuga. In between these periods of time is the actual yuga. Therefore, we have:

Satya Yuga (or Krita-yuga) = 4000 divine years, Sandhya = 400 divine years, Sandhyansa = 400 divine years. Total = 4800 divine years x 360 days = 1,728,000 human years.

Treta-yuga = 3000 divine years, Sandhya = 300 divine years, Sandhyansa = 300 divine years. Total = 3600 divine years x 360 days = 1,296,000 human years.

Dvapara-yuga = 2000 divine years, Sandhya = 200 divine years, Sandhyansa = 200 divine years. Total = 2400 divine years x 360 days = 864,000 human years.

Kali-yuga = 1000 divine years, Sandhya = 100 divine years, Sandhyansa = 100 divine years. Total = 1200 divine years x 360 days = 432,000 human years.

This equals 4,320,000 human years in one cycle of the four yugas together, and 1000 cycles of these yugas equals 12,000 divine years and 4,320,000,000 human years in a day of Brahma.

It is also explained that Kali-yuga began with the disappearance of Lord Krishna from the planet. This has been calculated to be 3102 B.C.. Since Kali-yuga is described as being 432,000 earth years in length, with 5,000 years and more already passed, then the age of Kali-yuga has approximately 426,000 more years to go. I hope this has clarified what is sometimes a confusing issue.

Jai Shri Krishna,

Thanks for the appreciation.

Now the life of Brahma is calculated as follows (continuation from above).

4,320,000,000 human years 1 day and 1 night (x 2) = 8,640,000,000 human years 1 month ( x 30 ) = 259,200,000,000 human years 1 year ( x 12 ) = 3,110,400,000,000 human years 100 years of Brahma = 311,040,000,000,000 human years.

It is stated in Bhagavatam that Lord Brahma's life time is measured in parArdhAs and his life duration is having two parArdhAs, out of which one parArdha is already passed. In this matter we must take the words of Suta Gosvami when he was reciting the whole of Bhagavatam to the sages of NaimishAraNya headed by sage Shaunaka. He says "The one hundred years of BrahmA's life are divided into two parts, the first half and the second half. The first half of the duration of BrahmA's life is already over, and the second half is now current." Taking this into consideration Brahma's current age, according to human calculation -- approximately -- is 155,520,000,000,000. In words it is read as: ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FIVE TRILLION, FIVE HUNDRED AND TWENTY BILLION MILLION YEARS!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Vasantji for sharing this information. I like your scientific / Mathematical analysis across all the topics like this one and the one you did on Purshottam Mass.

Jai Shree Krishna

Lovely question Vasantji, my grandma narrated these pusthi karya’s to us years ago.

This is from what I can remember and have seen in Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan

Sabri was told by a Rushi that one day that the Lord himself will bless her home. Ecstatic by this news Sabri started preparations for the Lord’s welcome, everyday she would pluck fruits and taste them first so Dear Lord would not have to consume any bitter fruits. She continued this for years longing to see Shree Ram. Then one day Shree Ram and Lakshman appeared, Sabri had tears of joy. She offered Ram the tasted fruits and he accepted them

Dear vaishnavs please correct or elaborate on the above

JSK

Another prasang of pushti was When Jatayu told the story how he tried to save Sitaji from Ravan and got injiured.Shri Ram took him in His arm and petted.Jatayu took his last breath in Shri Rams hand.Shri Ram did his ANTESHETH Kriya(funneral).
Dattubhai Purohit.

Jai Shri Krishna, Jai Shri Ram,

As we all know Shri Krishna is the Pushti Purshotam and Shri Rama is the Maryada Purshotam. But Shri Rama did perform 4 Pushti Lilas.

As Sitalji has mentioned the frist one is that of Shabri and why it is Pushti because Shri Thakurji here has proved SNEH BHAV by accepting the juthan of Shabri.

God accepted her offerings because He only looked at the Bhav of Love behind it. She used to taste only to make sure they are not sour and choose only the sweet ones and keep aside for Shri Rama proving that God should be offered only the best fruits available. (Sneh Bhav)

Dattubhai I like the lila you have described but unfortunately it was not called the Pushti lila. But Shri Ram also did lots of Lilas so lets add them.
