"What signs do we recognize an avatar?"

And the Lord answered: "Just as we recognize the different avatars in the light of the Vedic texts, one can understand who is actually the incarnation of God in this age of Kali." Hence the importance of s' rely on authoritative scriptures on the subject: it is not to see an avatar in one person, according to his whims, but rather to understand the characteristics of a true avatar, set in the sacred literature. An authentic avatar never declared such, so His followers are to distinguish the frauds with reference to proven Scriptures.

Any intelligent person can recognize the characteristic features of the legitimate avatar thanks to two criteria, or His personality - the primary endpoint - and His secondary characteristics. Thus, the Scriptures do they describe the physical traits and activities of the avatar, the first being the main criterion to identify it, and second, its secondary attributes. The very first verse of Srimad-Bhagavatam confirms describing one can better the characteristics of an avatar with the words param and satyam which, Shri Chaitanya Krishna reveal key traits. Its secondary features, like to teach the Vedic knowledge to Brahma and take the form of the purusha-avatar to create the cosmos, are manifested only occasionally and for specific purposes.

It is important to understand and distinguish the principal and marginal features of the avatar. No one can claim to divine incarnation without owning and each other, that no intelligent therefore omit to study before to hold anyone for an avatar.

And at the junction of two ages, when almost all the leaders of the Earth will become looters, the Lord of the universe will appear as Kalki, the son of Visnu Yasa.

Another prediction: that the coming of Kalki avatar to appear at the conjunction of two cycles, that is to say when the kali-yuga ends and where begins a new Satya-yuga. The four yugas - Satya, Treta, Dvapara and Kali - actually follow as the calendar month. The age of Kali, in which we live today, lasts 432,000 years, of which only 5000 have elapsed since it began after the Battle of Kurukshetra, at the end of the reign of Maharaja Pariksit.Are therefore still to go 427,000 years. This bygone era, will come the Kalki incarnation, as prophesized the Bhagavatam, which even mentions the name of his father, Visnu Yasa, which will be a brahmana scholar, and the name
