- From "TV or Not TV", "Umperor Kali Yuga" is a play on the Roman Emperor Caligula
and the hindu term Kali Yuga. Bongo sez: Kali Yuga is a hindu term for the age
just (thankfully) coming to an end, in a system that (more or less) defines
human spiritual receptivity as a cyclical function emcompassing multiple thousands
of years. In such a system, Kali Yuga is considered the darkest age, which some
believe bottomed out about 500 or 600 A.D. As we are now supposedly on the ascendant
cusp exiting the age, "watching Kali Yuga pass" is a nicely poignant pun on
the times in which we live.
