Confluence Age
Also, Sangamyuga, Sangam Yuga or Diamond Age.
Unlike traditional Hinduism which separates the Cycle of Time into 4 distinct eras, the BKWSU teach that there is a fifth age called the Confluence Age (Sangamyuga) or Diamond Age. This is considered to be the most auspicious age when God incarnates on earth into the body of Dada Lekhraj in order to teach Raja Yoga, bring about Destruction and the re-creation of the Golden Age.
Originally, it was taught that this age would last 40 years but after Destruction did not happen in 1976, this was changed to 100 years; 50 years for destruction of impure human civilisation and 50 years for its re-creation.
Again when Destruction did not take place in the mid-1980s, this was changed to 50 to 60 years for Destruction and 40 years for re-creation. As the BKWSU is now celebrating its 70th anniversary, the issue is so some degree avoided.
God or the BKWSU states that, " whatever happens in Confluence Age is remembered on the path of bhakti in forms of beliefs, rituals, cults, festivals, myth etc. ". That is to say, whatever individuals do during this time, the manner in which they relate or do not relate to the BKWSU, the efforts they make or understanding they draw from the knowledge the BKWSU teach will fashion their fortune in the next 5,000 Year Cycle.
- The Confluence Age, shich lasts from the time of Shiva Baba's coming until the establishment of Satyuga.
