Birth of Brahma, the first kalp called the Brahm kalp. Brahma meditates and conceives all the Vedas and Puranas with the Grace of Krishna. His homage to Krishna at that time is called the Brahma Samhita. |
155.513332 |
The second kalp. Brahma creates the brahmand, produces the first ten Rishis. Devas and asuras (gods and demons) are created. They are called the celestial gods and the demons. The main abodes of the gods are: bhu, bhuv, swah (the abode of god Indra), mah, jan, tap and satya (the abode of Brahma). The general term for the abode of the demons is patal lokwhich is below the celestial abodes of gods and near bhu lok. All these abodes are in a separate space and dimension. Later on the ozone layer is formed on the earth planet. Brahma produces Swayambhuva Manu and Shatroopa, the Rishis on the earth planet conceive the Vedas and Puranas; and gradually the human civilization develops. (There are 14 manvantarsin a kalp and in every kalp similar Divine historical events happen. Up till now 18,000 kalpas have already elapsed. One kalp along with Brahma’s night is 8,640 million years.) |

*The Puranas mention more than 50 important personalities of Surya Vansh who were between Ikchvaku and Bhagwan Ram in 102 million years.
**According to the “Surya Siddhant” the astrologers have calculated that kaliyug started on the afternoon of 17th February, 3102 BC. In the Bhagwatam, Brahma tells in round figures that Krishna remained on this earth planet for 125 years.
Accordingly, if you add 125 years to February, 3102, it comes to February 3227 BC. But Krishna’s descension was in the Rohini nakchatra (asterism) of the 8th waning moon midnight of bhadon (August) which is about seven months earlier. Thus, His descension date is 3228 BC and He stayed on the earth planet for 125 years and about 7 months.
