युगधर्मवर्णनम् — चतुर्युग, गुण, धर्मपाद, तथा वार्तोत्पत्ति
त्रिपादहीनस्तिष्ये तु सत्तामात्रेण धिष्ठितः कृतयुग कृते तु मिथुनोत्पत्तिर् वृत्तिः साक्षाद्रसोल्लसा
tripādahīnastiṣye tu sattāmātreṇa dhiṣṭhitaḥ kṛtayuga kṛte tu mithunotpattir vṛttiḥ sākṣādrasollasā
But in the age of Tiṣya (Kali), dharma stands deprived of three quarters, supported only by bare existence. In the Kṛta-yuga, however, the mode of life is direct and luminous with rasa, and the creation of pairs (male and female) proceeds in harmony.
Suta Goswami (narrating to the sages of Naimisharanya)
