Entry Of Kali Yuga

At the end of Dwapar Yuga when kaliyuga was about to enter, then the king Parikshit prohibited him to stay.He begged and said “ It is destined.I can not turn away.Apart from demerits I have many advantages also.During the Satya Yuga if any one inadvertently committed a wrong deed the entire kingdom had to bear the punishment. During Treta, if any one committed a wrong deed, the people of that town had to bear the punishment. During Dwapar Yuga, if anyone happened to commit a wrong deed, the entire family had to bear the punishment, but in Kali Yuga, he shall only bear the punishment who has committed the wrong deed. Unlike the other eras where one had to bear the punishment for a wrong and bad thoughts, In my era, this will not happen but one shall be bestowed with good fruits who thinks good."But the King Parikshit was not satisfied.Then Kaliyuga said:" One could fulfill all ones wishes and desires in the Satya Yuga only after practicing penance for 10,000 years. Similarly in the Treta Yuga and the Dwapar Yuga, one had to collect a lot of money and perform Yagyas and had to engage in charity, penance, vows and worship for a 100 years respectively to fulfil ones desires. Unlike the others, in this era, if one even prays to God for sometime with total faith and devotions and sings the praises of the Lord, he shall fulfill all his desires within no time.King Parikshit finally allowed Kali Yuga to stay and allowed him to stay four places
1)liquor
2)where a prostitute stays
3)where there is animal slaughter
4)at a place of gambling
Kali Yuga requested that his family was very big that is it comprises of members like lust, anger, greed, ego, jealousy, lies etc.How shall all of them fit in these allotted places? On this king Parikshit said that they should all then reside in gold. In this way, Kali Yuga resides in the 5 places allotted by king Parikshit.
