Those who scientifically understand the past declare that on the very day that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa departed for the spiritual world, the influence of the Age of Kali began.

Although technically Kali-yuga was to begin during the time of Lord Kṛṣṇa’s presence on earth, this fallen age had to wait meekly for the departure of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Translation
The ancients with knowledge have declared that on the very day that Kṛṣṇa departed for the spiritual world, the influence of the age of Kali began. “Well, some recent speculators have said that Kṛṣṇa made his appearance in the first sandhyā of Kali-yuga.” This verse refutes that theory. The general rule is that next yuga enters during the concluding part of the closing sandhyā (called a sandhyāṁśa) of the previous yuga. However, because of the influence of Kṛṣṇa, Kali could not have any effect at that time.
