Dwapara Yuga Duration – What is the number of years of Dwapara Yuga?

Dwapara Yuga is the third of the four yugas in Hinduism. The duration or number of years in Dwapara Yuga is calculated differently – one has to convert the years of devas into the years of the human beings.




The Duration of Dwapara Yuga is 864,000 human years.

Its duration is 2400 years of the Gods.

A year of the gods is equal to 360 years of human beings.

Thus the duration of Dwapara Yuga is 864,000 human years.

In the Dwapara Yuga, Sri Krishna was present on earth. Dharma had only two legs, she had lost her two legs.
