The Promised of the End of Time in Hinduism

According to the Hindu Beliefs, after several periods of the time, a period come that is called "Kali-yoga" (the last stage of the time), in which oppression and evil overcome justice and goodness. In this period, there will arise a savoir called "Kalki Avatar" that will struggle against oppression and evil and, by destroying the evildoers, will refill the world of justice and goodness and will provide the field for human beings to arrive in a new period of progress. Of course belief in the Promised in Hinduism is not excluded in the idea of "Kalki", but considering the individuals found in the recent centuries that introduced themselves as the promised savoir it seems that the concept of "savoir" for the Hindus is under a typology. In this article, in addition to examine the concept of "Avatar" as well as the typology of the issue of the promised savoir in the Hindu texts and explaining the effects of this belief on the Hindu culture and society, we will criticize and examine the views of some thinkers in corresponding it to various characters especially the Prophet of Islam (SAWA).
