Krishna (Hindu deity)
"Brāhmans, Kshatriyas and Vaishyas will cease to restrain and rule the
Sudras or even each other. All castes will be levelled and become
one—unclean and barbarous. Fathers will not pardon sons, nor sons pardon
their fathers. Wives will cease from attending upon their husbands; men
and women will all be self-willed and envious of each other. People will
not perform any good works or ceremonies to satisfy the gods. They will
not listen to each other; there will be no gooroo (teacher) or chelā
(pupil), all will be filled with the darkness of ignorance. At Kali-end.
their longevity will be sixteen years; most will die immediately after
that age is reached. Women will give birth to children at the age of
seven or eight, and, in some cases, even at five or six; men will beget
children at the age of ten or twelve; in some cases, even at the age of
seven or eight. No husband will be satisfied with his wife, no wife
satisfied with her husband. They will have very little wealth, and even
those who will have no wealth whatever will wear the false marks of
wealth. Envy will be predominant in every mind, hunger ever burning in
every stomach. Cross-road and streets will be thronged by wantons and
libertines. Women, forsaking shame, will bear spite and grudge for their
husbands. Men will be all of unclean habits, manners and customs, cat
anything and everything and will be terrible in every way and action.
They will cheat all in buying and selling of goods, out of sheer greed.
"None will care to acquire spiritual wisdom, yet all will be busied in
performing spiritual ceremonies for form's sake and be naturally
addicted to crooked acts. They will show the faults of each other.
People will live in constant fear of losing their lives as victims of
their own greed and envy. The Sudras will kill Brāhmans and rob them of
their property, and the Brāhmans being thus oppressed will cry out in
agony and out of fear will roam unprotected on the surface of the earth.
Some of them will take refuge in lonely spots on river banks, in
mountains and in dangerous places to save their lives; others being
oppressed by the grinding taxes of unjust kings, will lose all patience,
and taking to the services of Sudras, will perform forbidden acts.
