annihilates the world, and restores dharma, thereby preparing for the future rebirth of the destroyed world. This is the only future messianic avatar of Vishnu, and according to Hindu chronology, it will occur at the end of the Kali Yuga — the current historical age, which began in 3102 BCE. The Kali Yuga is said to last 432,000 years and is considered the worst of the four yugas. In it, people are dominated by their destructive passions — anger, fear, ignorance, hatred, and other vices prevail.
The moment will come, and a twice-born named Kalki Vishnuyasha, endowed with great strength, wisdom, and power, will appear. He will be born into a worthy Brahmin family in the village of Shambhala and will, through the power of spirit, restore weapons, various means of transport, war gear, armor, and mail. This king, victorious through dharma, will seize supreme power and bring peace to a restless world. This shining Brahmin, noble in thought, having appeared to the world, will bring an end to destruction. Thus, total annihilation will become the beginning of a new yuga. Together with Brahmins, this twice-born will destroy the pitiful bands of Mlecchas scattered everywhere.”
Another coming “Saoshyant (from the participle of the verb to save) is the eschatological savior in Zoroastrianism who will come to Earth for the final triumph of good over evil.
In the Iranian tradition, there is a consistent belief in multiple Saoshyants, to whom it is destined at the end of time to conduct the final judgment, destroy the bearers of evil, resurrect the righteous, and bring world history to its conclusion through the last redemptive sacrifice of the bull Hadhayosh. From the fat of this bull and the white haoma, a drink of immortality will be prepared, which will be given to all people.
As a result of the battle with the forces of Angra Mainyu (Ahriman), all evil will be defeated, hell will be destroyed, and all the dead — both righteous and sinners — will be resurrected for the final judgment in the form of a fiery ordeal. The resurrected will pass through a river of molten metal, in which all remnants of evil and imperfection will be burned away. For the righteous, this trial will feel like bathing in warm milk; the wicked, however, will burn. After this last judgment, the world will forever return to its original perfection.
