This Kaliyuga is Special and Rarest of the Rare

The great Sankirtan Movement of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu is a great gift to the world and a very rare event as He comes "once" every 8 billion 640 million human years.

This happens just after Krishna in His original form also comes "once" over the same amount of time.

Many take it for granted without realizing how ''rare'' both Lord Krishna in His original Form at the end of a Dvapara-yuga and Lord Caitanya's appearance just after Lord Krishna in a Kali-yuga actually are as they both come only ''once'' in every ''day and night'' of Brahmā.

This also means Lord Caitanya appears ''once'' every 1000th Kali-yuga in the cycle of Maha Yugas that allbonlt happen during Brahma's day-time hours.

At night no yugas exist as a partial annihilation happens that takes 4 billion 320 million years

There are 4 Yugas to a Maha-yuga or Chatur-yuga, Lord Caitanya appears ''once'' in every 1000th Kali-yuga with His Sankirtan Movement.

And Lord Krishna in His original Form also only appears ''once'' at the end of a Dvapara-yuga out of every 1000 just before Lord Caitanya's appearance.

There are 4,320,000 human years in a Maha Yuga multiply that by 1000 which equals Brahma's 12 hours of day-time (that equals 4 billion 320 million years)

Then add another 4 billion 320 million years for Brahma's 12 hours night of partial annihilation where no yugas are created during that time of night.

That all adds up to 8 billion 640 million years which is a 24 hour ''day and night'' of Brahma.

Therefore we can understand that both Lord Krishna in His ''original'' Form and Lord Caitanya's appearance is very rare as they both only come ''once'' over that enormous period of time.

Yes Krishna comes once every 1000 Maha yugas which is both the 12 hour day-time period of Brahma and the 12 hour night-time period.

Remember, Brahma's 12 hour-night from "Sun set to Sun rise" is when a partial annihilation takes place.

This is also called the ‘Night of Brahma’ where their are no cycle of yugas (4 billion 320 million years) as already explained.

So together a ''day and night'' of Brahma equals 8 billion 640 million human years.

Also in this rare Kali-yuga there is a 10,000 year Golden Age known as the Sankirtan Movement of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu which is the congregational chanting of the Hare Krishna Maha mantra

The previous 999 Kali-yugas had no Lord Caitanya or Golden Age of Sankirtan.

In this Kali-yuga we are all very fortunate if we take up the Sankirtan Movement of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
