Adhyaya 40: Kali-yuga Lakshana, Yuga-sandhyamsha, and the Re-emergence of Dharma

यथा युगानां परिवर्तनानि चिरप्रवृत्तानि युगस्वभावात् तथा तु संतिष्ठति जीवलोकः क्षयोदयाभ्यां परिवर्तमानः

yathā yugānāṃ parivartanāni cirapravṛttāni yugasvabhāvāt tathā tu saṃtiṣṭhati jīvalokaḥ kṣayodayābhyāṃ parivartamānaḥ

जैसे युगों के परिवर्तन युग-स्वभाव से चिरकाल से चलते आए हैं, वैसे ही जीव-लोक भी क्षय और उदय के बीच घूमता हुआ बना रहता है।
