Hinduism Dictionary on Pralaya
pralaya: (Sanskrit) "Dissolution, reabsorption; destruction; death." A synonym for samhara, one of the five functions of Siva. Also names the partial destruction or reabsorption of the cosmos at the end of each eon or kalpa. There are three kinds of periods of dissolution: 1) laya, at the end of a mahayuga, when the physical world is destroyed; 2) pralaya, at the end of a kalpa, when both the physical and subtle worlds are destroyed; and 3) mahapralaya at the end of a mahakalpa, when all three worlds (physical, subtle and causal) are absorbed into Siva. See: cosmic cycle, mahapralaya.

 |  |  | Kalpa: Darkness Before Dawn In Cycle of Yugas
The Brahmakumaris practise Raja Yoga, particularly the trataka form of meditation in order to achieve union with God. It involves keeping your eyes open and fixing your gaze on a tiny red spot with total attention. Raja Yoga gives knowledge of self and enables one to attain peace, purity and harmony. Dawn is preceded by the darkest hour of the night. The Brahmakumaris consider the present time as the most critical period. This will be followed by a new age - the dawn in the great cycle of time. The agent of transition may be the person possessing knowledge of the true self, of a positive soul. One who reaches the highest stage of this knowledge becomes Brahma. The supreme divine being is Shiva, who is an embodiment of knowledge, peace, purity and harmony.

 |  |  | Kalpa: Vedas As A Guide To Good Living
The Vedas contain revelations of the eternal Truth. The culture of a community or a nation is derived from the values that people live and uphold in their lives. The word Veda is derived from the Sanskrit vid , to know. They contain knowledge in every field of worldly science , under the following broad headings - the sadangas or six limbs: Siksa or phonetics, kalpa or the code of rituals, vyakarana or grammar, nirukta or etymology, chandas or literature, and jyotish or astronomy. Along with these, four upvedas o r subvedas consist of the four sciences: Ayurveda or medicine, dhanurveda or new archery, gandharvaveda or music and sthapatyaveda or architecture

 |  |  | Kalpa: Introduction to HinduismIntroduction
to Hinduism
Statistically,
there are over 700 million Hindus, mainly in Bharat (India), and Nepal. Hinduism is referred to as Sanatana Dharma, the
eternal faith. Hinduism is not strictly a religion. It is based on the practice
of Dharma, the code of life. Since Hinduism has no founder, anyone who
practices Dharma can call himself a Hindu. He can question the authority of any
scripture, or even the existence of the Divine.

 |  |  | Kalpa: Silence Please, It's Mauni AmavasyaMauna: Silence Please, It's Mauni
Amavasya
Indian tradition emphasises the
concept of mauna or silence as an ideal trigger for
introspection and reflection. Derived from the word muni
, an ascetic who practises silence, mauna ideally
symbolises a state of oneness with the Self.
Mauna has been
described by Sankara as one of the three essential
attributes of a sanyasi , along with balya
or childlike state and panditya or wisdom.
According to Ramana Maharshi, mauna is a state
beyond speech and thought, it is "living without the ego-sense". He
made silence the medium of spiritual instruction.

Theosophy
Occultism Mysticism Dictionary on Brahma
A
Theosophical definition of Brahma :
Brahma (Sanskrit) A word of which the root, brih, means "expansion." It stands for the spiritual energy-consciousness side of our solar universe, i.e., our solar system, and the Egg of Brahma is that solar system. A Day of Brahma or a maha-manvantara is composed of seven rounds, a period of 4,320,000,000 terrestrial years; this period is also called a kalpa. A Night of Brahma, the planetary rest period, which is also called the parinirvanic period, is of equal length. Seven Days of Brahma make one solar kalpa; or, in other words, seven planetary cycles, each cycle consisting of seven rounds (or seven planetary manvantaras), form one solar manvantara. One Year of Brahma consists of 360 Divine Days, each day being the duration of a planet's life, i.e., of a planetary chain of seven globes. The Life of Brahma (or the life of the universal system) consists of one hundred Divine Years, i.e., 4,320,000,000 years times 36,000 x 2. The Life of Brahma is half ended: that is, fifty of his years are gone - a period of 155,520,000,000,000 of our years have passed away since our solar system, with its sun, first began its manvantaric course. There remain, therefore, fifty more such Years of Brahma before the system sinks into rest or pralaya. As only half of the evolutionary journey is accomplished, we are, therefore, at the bottom of the kosmic cycle, i.e., on the lowest plane.

Theosophy
Occultism Mysticism Dictionary on Kalpa
A
Theosophical definition of Kalpa :
Kalpa (Sanskrit) This word comes from a verb-root klrip, meaning "to be in order"; hence a "period of time," or a "cycle of time." Sometimes a kalpa is called the period of a mahamanvantara - or "great manvantara" - after which the globes of a planetary chain no longer go into obscuration or repose, as they periodically do, but die utterly. A kalpa is also called a Day of Brahma, and its length is 4,320,000,000 years. Seven rounds form a Day of Brahma, or a planetary manvantara. (See also Brahma, Manvantara) Seven planetary manvantaras (or planetary cycles, each cycle consisting of seven rounds) form one solar kalpa (or solar manvantara), or seven Days of Brahma - a week of Brahma. The difficulty that many Western students have had in understanding this word lies in the fact that it is unavoidably a "blind," because it does not apply with exclusive meaning to the length of one time period alone. Like the English word age, or the English phrase time period, the word kalpa may be used for several different cycles. There is likewise the maha-kalpa or "great kalpa," which frequently is the name given to the vast time period contained in a complete solar manvantara or complete solar pralaya.

Bhadra-kalpa
Bhadra-kalpa (Sanskrit) (from bhadra auspicious, blessed + kalpa age) The time period of the sages; the present age, said exoterically to last 236 million years, so called because 1,000 buddhas or sages appear in the course of it. "The Bhadra Kalpa, or the 'period of stability,' is the name of our present Round, esoterically -- its duration applying, of course, only to our globe (D), the '1,000' Buddhas being thus in reality limited to but forty-nine in all" (TG 55-6).
