  Yuga Dharma
Yuga Dharma are limited, temporary and relative in their scope and authority.
In the other yugas, duty, ordained in the Vedas, is seen to gradually decline by a quarter in each.
It has also been heard by us that, in the succeeding yugas, the words of the Vedas, the periods of life, the blessings (uttered by Brahmanas), and the fruits of Vedic rites, all decrease gradually.

 The Kali Yuga -A Theosophical Article by William Q. Judge
Kali Yuga is in length 432,000 years according to the old Indian calculation, and we are now coming to the end of its first five thousand years, that preliminary period being reckoned from the death of Krishna.
To find out when the great Kali Yuga for the major race, including all its sub-races, began would be impossible, as there are no means, and H.P.B., the only one for the present who had access to those who held the records, said precise figures on those heads would not be given out.
For that reason it seems plain that the figures for the various Ages (or Yugas) are only such as relate to and govern the sub- or minor races.

 Kali-yuga and the Number of Time: a Creative Accounting
Since Yuga (more widely) indicates an Age or Era, it is cognate with Millennium, and in later times came also to mean a era of 1,000 years.
Yuga also means Four, and the extent of previous Ages in a quadruple cycle has been calculated by multiplying 432 by its own digits (4, 3, and 2).
Yuga is a general term for an Age or Era, but its specific association with the number 432 is a result of the 5-fold division of a cycle, and sexagesimal mathematics.

 Yuga
Hence the name Krita Yuga may be explained in terms of saying: ‘Krita Krityanaam Yugam Krita Yugam.’ For the various aspirants of those days on the ladder of spirituality used to perform all their respective functions in the three Kandas fully and correctly, and were therefore Krita Krityas (persons who had discharged all their duties).
He, consequent to the Krita Yuga, does not possess Chittasuddhi (purity of heart) in the same manner and to the same extent, and cannot therefore act as a reflecting mirror i.e., cannot become an easy recipient of the wisdom enshrined in the Master’s head and heart.

They were not as good as we like to think they were; time has dulled the memories of the things from those days that were not good, and we tend to look back through rose-colored spectacles.
‘Kali Yuga’ is frequently translated as ‘The Dharma-Ending Age’, so it is necessary to point out the error of this, for the purpose of clarification.

 The Hare Krsnas - Incarnations of the Lord - Yuga-avataras
There are four yugas, or millennia--Satya, Treta, Dvapara, and Kali--and in each millennium the Supreme Lord incarnates, and each incarnation has a different color according to the yuga.
And finally in Kali-yuga (the yuga that we have now been experiencing over the past 5,000 years) there is an abundance of strife, ignorance, irreligion and vice, true virtue being practically nonexistent, and this yuga lasts 432,000 years.
In Kali-yuga vice increases to such a point that at the termination of the yuga the Supreme Lord Himself appears as the Kalki avatara, vanquishes the demons, saves His devotees, and commences another Satya-yuga.
