Triyuga Does Not Exclude a Disguised Appearance
“Another name for Lord Viṣṇu is Triyuga because there is no incarnation of Lord Viṣṇu in Kali-yuga. Indeed, this is the verdict of the revealed scriptures.”
What the purport teaches
- Lord Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is known as Triyuga, meaning that He is manifest in three yugas.
- The speaker took this name to mean that Lord Viṣṇu has no incarnation in Kali-yuga.
- The purport explains that in the Age of Kali the Lord appears not directly but in disguise. It states that Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam confirms this.
