Sacred Malika Verses

Seeing the rampant darkness of vices in Kali Yuga, Lord Vishnu will decide to descend to earth in His Kalki Avatar (incarnation). Leaving His abode at Vaikuntha, the Lord will take birth in a village named Sambal. He will be born to a Brahmin who sings the glories of Lord Vishnu and resides near the bank of the Ganga (River Baitarani is known as the Gupt Ganga of Odisha). The Lord will take birth from the womb of Jasobanti, the Brahmin's consort. He will be born in the 12th month of pregnancy, and a few days thereafter, the natal rituals will be performed.

The Lord will be born to a Brahmin devotee of Lord Vishnu named Vishnu Sharma, and his consort Jashobanti, the former residing in the northern part of Sambhala, while the latter hailing from the central Lakshmi Varaha region (on the other side of River Vaitarani). The Lord will take birth secretly and nobody will be able to recognize Him. He will conceal His identity even from His devotees, and for a few years, everyone will remain oblivious to the fact that the Supreme Lord has indeed taken birth on the earth.

Once the short lifespan of Kali Yuga gets over, the Lord will be born in village Sambal, in the house of a virtuous Brahmin who sings the Lord's glories — at the time of the destruction of the Mlecchas (forces of adharma). Sage Achyutanand Das clearly states that Kali Yuga will last only about 5,000 years — not the full 432,000 years — due to accumulated sins.

Sage Achyutanand Das, in 'Balmikikalpa', repeatedly asks sage Valmiki to rest assured that the Supreme Lord will be born in Utkala (ancient name for Odisha). In Chumbaka Malika, sage Sishu Ananta tells the Lord that He will take birth in Odisha as Lord Kalki — annihilating the sinners, protecting His devoted devotees, and restoring righteousness on earth.

"O my disciple Baranaga, listen — I will tell you about the birthplace of the Lord. At Śrī Birājā Kṣetre (the sacred land of Maa Biraja), will He be born, in the clan of Ananta Mishra."

Sage Achyutananda describes the birthplace region: to the south of the Kṣīra Nadī (Milk River / Kharasrota) lies the land called Liṅga (Linga Kshetra / Biraja Kshetra). Brahma established this place by performing a Yagna here, which is why it is called the Adi Kshetra — the first sacred place. For the benefit of devotees, Mata Biraja Devi is eternally present here. This same area is also known as Biraja Kshetra, Linga Kshetra, Shaiva Kshetra, Jajnagar, or Sambal — and it is here that Lord Kalki will be born.

The Supreme Lord will take birth in the human form as Kalki in Utkala (Odisha) and there, surrounded by sages and saints, He will manifest His eternal divine glory and brilliance. His sacred presence will illuminate the holy land, drawing devotees from all directions.

In this remarkable verse, the Lord Himself declares in first person: "I am born in the house of Vishnu Sharma, in Odisha on the mortal plane." This direct first-person declaration by the Supreme Lord through the pen of Achyutananda Das leaves absolutely no room for doubt about the birth location of Lord Kalki.

The Supreme Lord Chakradhara (Vishnu / Kalki) will be born in the family of Vishnu Sharma in the Sambal village of Gaya (Nabhigaya Peetha located in the Biraja Kshetra of Jajpur). There He will perform austerity and tapasya. The Nabhigaya Peetha is a sacred site within Biraja Kshetra — the very land over which Maa Biraja eternally presides.

When men are ceaselessly engaged in countless evil deeds — relentless butchering of animals, cow slaughter, insensitivity at its peak, killing of women, children, elderly, and even parents — at such a time of extreme moral debasement, Lord Kalki will descend to earth and take birth in Odisha to eradicate the darkness and establish Satya Yuga. These signs described 600 years ago are visible in the world today.
