N - Nasty Age (1-3)

When Krishna left the planet, Kali-yuga officially began. This nasty age is described in the pages of Srimad-Bhagavatam. Everything declines – truthfulness, tolerance, mercy and wellbeing. When the degradation reaches its peak, the Lord appears as Kalki to destroy the irreligious perpetrators and re-establish Satya-yuga. Thus, the only way to transcend the dark and depressing features of this age is to chant the holy names of Krishna, as given by the yuga-avatara, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
