(852,000 divine years; 1 divine year = 360 solar years)

852 * 360 = 306720

Each manvantara lasts for 306,720,000 divine solar years 

and repeats seventy-one Yuga Cycles (world ages). 

yuga, in Hinduism, is generally used to indicate an age of time.[1][2]

In the Rigveda, a yuga refers to generations, a period of time (whether long or short), or a yoke (joining of two things).[3] In the Mahabharata, the words yuga and kalpa (a day of Brahma) are used interchangeably to describe the cycle of creation and destruction.[4]

In post-Vedic texts, the words "yuga" and "age" commonly denote a catur-yuga (pronounced chatur yuga), a cycle of four world ages—for example, in the Surya Siddhanta and Bhagavad Gita (part of the Mahabharata)—unless expressly limited by the name of one of its minor ages: Krita (Satya) YugaTreta YugaDvapara Yuga, or Kali Yuga.[1][5][a]

Yuga Cycle  is a cyclic age (epoch) in Hindu cosmology

Each cycle lasts for 4,320,000 yrs (12,000 divine yrs X 360 Solar years 12X36=432

432,000 is the radius of the sun in miles

and cycles through four yugas : Krita (Satya) YugaTreta YugaDvapara Yuga, and Kali Yuga.[4]

As a Yuga Cycle progresses through the four yugas, each yuga's length and humanity's general moral and physical state within each yuga decrease by one-fourth.

 Kali Yuga, which lasts for 432,000 years, is believed to have started in 3102 BCE.[5][6] Near the end of Kali Yuga, when virtues are at their worst, a cataclysm and a re-establishment of dharma occur to usher in the next cycle's Krita (Satya) Yuga, prophesied to occur by Kalki.[7]

There are 71 Yuga Cycles in a manvantara (age of Manu) and 1,000 Yuga Cycles in a kalpa (day of Brahma).[6]

In a kalpa (day of Brahma), which lasts for 4.32 billion years 

(12 million divine years or 1,000 Yuga Cycles), 

there are a total of fourteen manvantaras 

(14 x 71 = 994 Yuga Cycles), 

where each is followed by and the first preceded by a manvantara-sandhya (fifteen sandhyas) with each sandhya lasting for 1,728,000 years (4,800 divine years; the duration of Satya Yuga). During each manvantara-sandhya, the earth (Bhu-loka) is submerged in water.[5][7][8]

Each kalpa has 14 manvantaras and 15 manvantara-sandhyas in the following order:

  • 1st manvantara-sandhya (a.k.a. adi sandhya)
  • 1st manvantara
  • 2nd manvantara-sandhya
  • 2nd manvantara
  • ...
  • 14th manvantara-sandhya
  • 14th manvantara
  • 15th manvantara-sandhya

Manusmriti, Ch. 1:[9]

(67) A year is a day and a night of the gods ... (79) The before-mentioned age of the gods, (or) twelve thousand (of their years), being multiplied by seventy-one, (constitutes what) is here named the period of a Manu (Manvantara). (80) The Manvantaras, the creations and destructions (of the world, are) numberless; sporting, as it were, Brahman [(Brahma)] repeats this again and again.

Surya Siddhanta, Ch. 1:[10]

(13) ... twelve months make a year. This is called a day of the gods. (14) ... Six times sixty [360] of them are a year of the gods ... (15) Twelve thousand of these divine years are denominated a Quadruple Age (caturyuga); of ten thousand times four hundred and thirty-two [4,320,000] solar years (18) One and seventy [71] Ages are styled here a Patriarchate (manvantara); at its end is said to be a twilight which has the number of years of a Golden Age, and which is a deluge. (19) In an Æon (kalpa) are reckoned fourteen such Patriarchs (manu) with their respective twilights; at the commencement of the Æon is a fifteenth dawn, having the length of a Golden Age.

Vishnu Purana, Part 1, Ch. 3:[11]

Twelve thousand divine years, each composed of (three hundred and sixty) such days, constitute the period of the four Yugas, or ages ... a thousand such aggregates are a day of Brahma, and fourteen Manus reign within that term ... Seven Rishis, certain (secondary) divinities, Indra, Manu, and the kings his sons, are created and perish at one period; and the interval, called a Manwantara, is equal to seventy-one times the number of years contained in the four Yugas, with some additional years: this is the duration of the Manu, the (attendant) divinities, and the rest, which is equal to 852,000 divine years, or to 306,720,000 years of mortals, independent of the additional period. Fourteen times this period constitutes a Brahma day, that is, a day of Brahma ...
