During the Kali Yuga, such acts of violence and deception will only increase from now till the destruction of the Earth. This manifests itself in today’s world. Terrorism remains on the rise, within foreign and domestic areas of Earth. France stands in a state of considering war, America increases security and prepares for attacks, and relations with the Middle East get chillier.

Once one attains this, he/she will be at peace, and eventually, with all humans peacefully communicating, negotiating, and not fighting, the world will come to
