Kali Yuga began at midnight (00:00) on 18 February 3102 BCE in the proleptic Julian calendar, or 23 January 3102 BC in the proleptic Gregorian calendar. This date is also considered by many Hindus to be the day that the god Krishna died as a result of a freak bow hunting accident. Most interpreters of Hindu scriptures believe that earth is currently in Kali Yuga, though some believe that it is now at the beginning of the preceding stage, Dvapara Yuga. The Kali Yuga is traditionally thought to last 432,000 years.
