Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 31
ततः कलियुगं प्रोक्तं चतुर्थं च सुदारुणम् । एकपादो वृषो यत्र पापं पादैस्त्रिभिः स्थितम्
tataḥ kaliyugaṃ proktaṃ caturthaṃ ca sudāruṇam | ekapādo vṛṣo yatra pāpaṃ pādaistribhiḥ sthitam
Sesudah itu dinyatakanlah Kali Yuga—zaman keempat yang amat dahsyat—di mana Lembu Dharma berdiri hanya pada satu kaki, sedangkan dosa tegak pada tiga kaki.
Skanda (deduced from Nāgarakhaṇḍa Tīrthamāhātmya narrative style)
Scene: Personified Dharma as a bull standing on one leg, trembling; beside it, a three-legged dark figure of Pāpa/Kali stands firm; the sky shows the turning of ages.
FAQs
Kali Yuga is marked by a drastic weakening of dharma and a dominance of sin; spiritual effort must therefore be more deliberate.
