Translation
When the seven sages pass into the constellation Maghā, the age of Kali begins. Kali-yuga comprises twelve hundred years of the devatās. When the seven sages enter Maghā constellation and Kṛṣṇa disappears, the next moment after that Kali-yuga begins. Twelve hundred years of the devatās includes the two sandhyās as well. [Note: There is a sandhyā at the beginning and end of each yuga. The proportions are .1 from the beginning portion, .8 for the middle portion and .1 for the concluding portion of the yuga.]
