Talk:Satya Yuga

Move?

I believe this should be moved to Krita Yuga or Kruta yuga as the term "Satya yuga" is more of a recent origin and employed more to indicate the yuga that would be dawning next after the current Kaliyuga. --Gurubrahma 11:03, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

• Agree I also agree, don't have an account for some reason... but Alan Watts also agrees. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.13.59.55 (talk) 08:42, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
• Neutral Although Krita Yuga and Satya Yuga are synonymous, Krita Yuga is found in the older Sanskrit writings such as Mahabharata, Manusmriti, Surya Siddhanta, and Puranas as well as modern writings, while Satya Yuga is only found in more modern writings in the last 500+ years such as the Bengali of Chaitanya Charitamrita, etc. In searching Google for variant spellings, Satya Yuga seems to have more results indicating more usage; although, Krita Yuga is traditionally more accurate.

The Time for the New Yuga

I think that this page should include as a short point an estimate of when the next Satya Yuga is to be expected.--Lighthead 01:52, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

The "Duration and structure" section was added with a calculated date for the last Satya Yuga. The next one starts when Kali Yuga ends in 428,899 CE (calculated), described in the Kali Yuga page's lead and "Duration and structure" section. This date is so far in the future that it may be irrelevant to add it to this page. Also, there are numerous Satya Yugas prior to and following the current Yuga Cycle, so what about the rest of the Satya Yuga ages? Jroberson108 (talk) 19:04, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Inconsistencies

First paragraph: "The average lifespan in the satya yuga is 100,000 years".

Paragraph "The Satya Yuga according to some holy texts": "The average life expectancy of a human being in Satya Yuga is believed to be over 400 years".

Same paragraph, later: "The average life expectancy of a human being in Satya yuga was approximately 4000 years."

I think this info should be checked, because such inconsistencies will lower the credibility of Wikipedia.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bdaniel7 (talk • contribs) 15:16, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

I see the part about 100,000 years, but not the 400 years or 4,000 years. It must have been corrected some time in the past. Jroberson108 (talk) 19:57, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

why shudras should serve Brahmins

Some section should be modified Its not mandatory that Shudras should serve Brahmins. Who is Brhamin ? Child born to Brahmin or Child born to Shudra? It has to be defined properly, some useless hypocrisy has been done in defining Brahmin. Mythology tells god has never taken birth in Brahmin family

Rama- Kastriya Krishna-Yadav Parasuram-Not Brahmin claimed to be Narshima-not affiliated any caste Hanuman-no caste Varaha-no caste all avatars of Vishnu- No caste — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.158.153.203 (talk) 07:52, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

I don't see where it talks about one caste serving another. This might have been modified/fixed some time in the past. Jroberson108 (talk) 20:02, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

@137.158.153.203 gods weren't born in Brahmin families but Brahmins were the closest to God in worshiping and other holy practices. as well as they were the teachers or 'gurus'. they educated others about God, morals, good deeds, sins, ethics, as well as kindness and honesty. and due to all these things and bring associated with stuff like this, they were respected by all the other castes a lot. obviously the kastriya were the royalties/hunters etc but they still respected Brahmins the most.
