Once again, the numbers don't fit the facts anyway.
Life expectancy has generally increased in the last thousand years compared to the thousand years before that, not decreased.
BK Dwapur Yuga of 1250 years (500 BC - 750 AD) is meant to be 21 births.
BK Kali Yuga - includes Sangam - another 1250 years (751AD-> coronation of Lakshmi and Narayan) is meant to be 42 births
Twice as many in the same number of years; meaning average life span should be half of what it was earlier. This does not match the evidence.
And here we are at the fag end of the fag end - already 1,262 years after Kali Yuga began, 12 years beyond its supposed end (yes folks, millenarianism literally part of the Gyan, until the millenium came and went - see Godly
posters in library) was meant to end and supposed to be at the lowest of the low stage, we are still defying all predictions of destruction and (BK theoretically) supposed to be the shortest of all lives.
But a major "problem" facing most societies today is that the people are living longer and longer ... more diseases are being cured or rendered non-life threatening, even cancer is far more treatable and appears to be close to being understood even defeated, genetic biology and medicine is proceeding in leaps and bounds ...
When the old age pension was introduced in the early part of the 20th C, for those over 65 years of age, the average life span was 67 years! it therefore did not cost so much to support for a few years.
Where a BK Kali yuga lifespan
should be 29 years*, in fact the average is well over 75 in developed societies, with many living into their 80s and 90s, and never before so many centenarians!
(*The numbers are meant to be for "84 birth souls" - but even BKs, the ones who are the "84 birthers" have long lifespans at this time, way beyond the Godly deigned 29 years. It is understandable that during the 1930s and 1940s this short lifespan idea might have credibility - there was the great depression, WW2 and it's aftermath, many were dying in famines and other man-made disasters, but - God knows how many children he has and what their fate is, as per last Kalpa).
When you bless someone with "May you live long and prosper" - in the "Confluence Age", is that a curse to a BK waiting for perfection and "going home"?
