In Satya Yuga, the first age, Dharma is depicted as a bull with four legs, but in each age morality is reduced by one quarter. By the age of Kali, morality is reduced to only a quarter of that of the golden age, so that the bull of Dharma has only one leg.

Ain't Dwapar Yug better than Kali Yug in terms of Dharma!?The situation over there seems to be worst and out of control compared to this age!🤔

Mahabharat Era looks NO way satisfying than this age!!

Even there we can find Hunger for power,lack of trust,assaults on women,lack of morality,lying to elders,breach of Trust and Loyalty(this is the area where numerous examples can be given!!),illicit relations!?
Additionally, to name few...we have Kidnap of young girls(By Bheeshma!?🥱),staking of one's own wife by DHARMA himself!?😲Killing of Foetus(By Ashwathama!)

For me the people of Mahabharat Age, save few, seem to be highly indisciplined!!

Please share your Opinion!

Cherry yes you are right, the injustice prevails mostly in that yuga,the only thing that was good is Lord Krishna, his Vrindavan Dham & all braj people's who teach us the heights of Bhakti 😊, that's the only thing and of course Lord Krishna's "Geeta Gyan", though injustice was there but to see the light dark should be there than only we can understand the value of light, and the thing only this way this universe works, when dark tries to overtake the universe than only light appears 😊.

And as far as kalyuga is concerned this yuga is termed as the best of all by all saints, they say saints wait for this yuga to born because in this yuga, Lord's place doors, windows are opened, with naam sankirtan bhakti is easily available to all, which is most difficult in other yuga's, Moksha is easier than compared to other yuga's for that one has to be on the path of truth, dharma, than one.can reach to God easily 😊.

First of all,I respect ur view too...
But in my opinion,Kaliyug is 10^100 times more worse than Satayuga...The events that u have written relating to the bad deeds were done at the last yrs of Dwapar...And today,Adharma's level is very much high...Now,Kaliyug is like a new born baby...Think if at this age,Adharma is so high then what would be there at the mid-age of Kaliyug...Hunger of power,staking,killing is practised even today on a high rate...I hope u r understanding my POV too...😊😊😊

the difference of kaliyug and the time frame of mahabharat is very simple, at that time some people were born to eradicate adharma and reconstruct dharma, now, even having opurtunity to end the reign of injustice, people stay inactive and let it preveil.

At least no sex before marriage which leads to no abortion... (We dont speak about Kunti-Karna's case since she didnt feel it's right also, or about aswatthama who killed unborn baby! today you might deliberately do asvatthama's act legally, without anyone cursing you)
Go google abortion meter, the amount will increase before your eyes.

Do keep in mind that the Mahabharat happened towards the end of Dwapar Yuga, so some of the qualities of Kali Yuga were already being imbibed in many characters. Parikshit, who was only the grandson of Arjuna, witnessed the start of Kali Yuga, so it was not long after Mahabharat that the Kali Yuga came.
Also, Arijit has made a good point. While Dwapar Yuga was similar to Kali Yuga in a lot of ways, it also differed in that people still tried to eradicate adharma, whereas now people just turn a blind eye. Also, the number of crimes against people were less in Dwapar Yuga than they are now. The qualities of people may have been similar, but the amount of crime and evil has increased in Kali Yuga which makes it worse. It will only continue to increase until it is so rampant that Lord Vishnu is once again forced to come in the form of Kalki Bhagwaan.

that's because then the people like the kauravas had fear for the consequences, now they don't have that fear anymore.

@All thanks for sharing your views!😊

We have established a system this day though there is wickedness all the way and no proper implementation.Seems like in Dwapar there was no well established society and handling of relations is poor.

Yah there were people who destroyed wicked but to what extent they were good!?Save Few!They were ready to judge others but what about their self!?

Ok the only solace as Arijit and JR said all this mess in extremity was at the end of Dwapar so makes difference.
