| Mar 12, 2016 at 7:52 | comment | added | Keshav Srinivasan♦ | @AnilKumar Where does the Skanda Purana say that? I'm pretty sure other Puranas say we're living in the first day of the 51st year. And what does "13th Kalpa from Creation" mean anyway? | |

| Jan 31, 2016 at 5:21 | comment | added | The Destroyer♦ | @Surya According to Skanda Purana, Pitri Kalpa in which Sati died was 13th Kalpa from Creation. So, we live in 14th day of Brahma in his 51st year. | |
| Nov 25, 2015 at 6:10 | comment | added | Surya | It may be the seventh day of Brahma's 51st year. (As he is 51 or more years old) | |
| Nov 25, 2015 at 5:57 | comment | added | The Destroyer♦ | Do you know chronological order of Kalpas til present Varaha Kalpa? . Shiva Purana mentions Vishnu traveled along the length of "lingam" for one Kalpa. These two are different Kalpas with same name "Varaha". But what is seventh kalpa, when we have multitude of Kalpas? | |
| Nov 24, 2015 at 16:47 | comment | added | Surya | Plus this page translates it differently: "In the Seventh Manvantara of the Varaha Kalpa". | |
| Nov 24, 2015 at 16:40 | comment | added | Surya | BTW, Srila Prabhupada opines (with quotes from his Sampradaya gurus) that two Varaha avataras stories were amalgamated into one - First Varaha avatara was to restore the earth, and the second to kill Hiranyaksha. Though I myself am not sure about that theory. | |
| Nov 24, 2015 at 16:38 | comment | added | Surya | I don't think it refers to Seven Varaha Kalpas. It may just be the seventh Kalpa, which is called Varaha. | |
