In Wendy Doniger’s massive book, The Hindus: An Alternative history, in chapter 17- Avatar And Accidental Grace In The Latter Puranas, there is the following:
“And at the end of the Kali Age, the minds of the people will become pure as flawless crystal, and they will be as if awakened at the conclusion of night. And those men, the residue of humankind, will be the seeds of creatures and will give birth to offspring conceived at that very time. And these offspring will follow the ways of the Winning (Krita/ Golden) Age.” pg 487.
“The transition between the end of the Kali Age and the beginning of the Winning Age is usually a cosmological upheaval, fire and blood.” pg 487.
This is interesting for how closely it follows the narrative provided by Bhau Kalchuri in Avatar Of The Age Manifesting. And that is that at the end of the Kali Yuga, after a period of great destruction- 3/4s of the world in fact, the world will attain a height of spiritual development that allows it to go to sleep in a fantastic mood so as to wake up after mahapralaya, in a new cycle of time beginning with the Golden age. The world must be “put to bed” in a good mood, so as to wake up in a good mood, to begin a new cycle of time.
The new Golden Age, following mahapralaya, will be represented by a purified humanity that wakes up in a very, very good mood.
But here is the bad news: the denouement of the Kali Yuga- the Iron Age, the Age of the Machine, is all about the machine. The machine goes crazy, completely crazy!
