More simply put, TIME VARIES from World to World (Celestial planes).
*************************************************************************
Brahma’s Realm is called the “Brahma Lok”, also known as the “Satya Lok”.
Brahma’s Kingdom is the Brahma Lok / Satya Lok
We are on the 7th Realm – The Bhu Lok
Brahma Lok is 1.87 billion miles above us. It is the highest Realm.
Hence time runs really slowly High up at Brahma Lok.
In half a day of Lord Brahma many trillion years pass on earth
Age of Universe = 100 Brahma Years = How many earth years ?

Lets find out
Time on earth compared in years to the time on Celestial plane.
1 earth year = 360 earth days = 1 Celestial day
30 earth years = 10,800 earth days = 1 Celestial month (30 Celestial days)
360 earth years = 129,600 earth days = 1 Celestial year (360 Celestial days)
The time on earth is spread over a cyclical period called a Maha Yug (Great
Era)
1 Maha Yug (Great Era) comprises of 4 Yugs (Eras)
1st Era – Satya Yug = 4800 celestial years = 1,728,000 earth years
2nd Era – Treytaa Yug = 3600 celestial years = 1,296,000 earth years
3rd Era – DwApar Yug = 2400 celestial years = 864,000 earth years
4th Era – Kali Yug = 1200 celestial years = 432,000 earth years
∴ 1 Maha Yug (Great Era) = 4800 + 3600 + 2400 + 1200
= 12,000 celestial years = 4,320,000 earth years
∴ 1 Maha Yug (Great Era) = 4,320,000 earth years
1 Day of Brahma – is called A Kalp (Eon) (1st HALF of Brahma’s Day)
1 Night of Brahma – is also equal to 1 Kalp. (2nd HALF of Brahma’s Day)
∴ 1 day + 1 night of Brahma
i.e. 1 BRAHMA DAY = 2 KALPS (Eons)
1 year of Brahma = 360 Brahma days
∴ 360 Brahma days = (360 x 2) = 720 KALPS
∴ 100 Brahma Years = 72,000 KALPS
The Life Span of Lord Brahma is called
“Parardh”or “Maha Kalp” (Great Eon)
Each Kalp has 14 Manwantars (Intervals)
Every Kalp begins with a time period called “Adi Sandhi”
Every Manwantar is followed by a time period called “Sandhi Kaal”
Adi Sandhi has 4 Charans (Levels). Sandhi Kaal has 4 Charans (Levels)
∴ 1 Kalp = 1 Adi Sandhi + 14 Manwantars
= 4 Charans + 14 Manwantars + (14 x 4) 56 Charans
= 60 Charans + 14 Manwantars
4 Charans = 1,728,000 earth years [total time of 1 Satya Yug (1st Era)]
∴ 1 Charan = (1,728,000 ÷ 4)
= 4,32,000 earth years [total time of 1 Kali Yug (4th Era) ]
60 Charans = (6 x 10) Charans
= 6 x (4,320,000 earth years) [total time of 1 Maha Yug (1 Great Era)
∴60 Charans = 6 Maha Yugs
∴ 1 Kalp = 6 Maha Yugs + 14 Manwantars
1 Manwantar comprises of 71 Maha Yugs
∴1 Kalp = 6 Maha Yugs + (14 x 71) 994 Maha Yugs
= 1000 Maha Yugs
1 Kalp = 1000 Mahayugs
∴ 1 Kalp (1 half of Brahma’s Day) = 1000 Mahayugs
∴ 2 Kalps (1 Day + Night of Brahma) = 2000 Mahayugs
1 Maha Yug = 4,320,000 earth years
∴ 2000 Maha Yugs = 8,640,000,000 earth years
∴ 1 Day + Night of Brahma = 8,640,000,000 earth years
1 Brahma Year = 360 Brahma days = (360 x 8,640,000,000) earth years
∴ 1 Brahma Year = 3,110,400,000,000 earth years
∴ 100 Brahma years = 311,040,000,000,000 Earth Years
(311 Trillion 40 Billion earth years)
Modern Cosmology calculates the current age of the Universe around 13.8 billion years
(Current Age = Time Elapsed since the Big Bang)
As per our calculation this Universe may still have approximately 311,026,200,000,000
(311 Trillion 26 Billion earth years)
