how to get punya in kali yuga - from puranas

 In kali yuga, fraudulence is the norm. There are severe droughts and famines, revolutions take place.

People are liars and sinners. They are easily angered. They d not respect the brahmanas. The

brahmanas, on their part, forget all about the Vedas and yajnas. Shudras become kings and oppress

the brahmanas. Some Shudras shave off their heads and wear saffron clothes. They pretend to be

religious teachers. And horror of horrors, people start to believe in these fraudulent teachers. Women

wear hairpins in their hair. As if this alone were not enough, they refuse to obey their husbands.

Thieves are everywhere. The only redeeming feature of kali yuga is the fact that even if one worships

Shiva just a little bit in kali yuga, one attains undying punya (store of merit).
