2. The 4-Yugas are as follows– Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dwapara Yuga and Kali Yuga.

3. There’s a process of self-realization that takes place in each of the 4-Yugas. The ages see a slow decline of dharma, wisdom, knowledge, life-span and emotional & physical strength.

4. Satya Yuga: It is the first yuga of the 4-Yugas, which spans 1,728,000 human years. This yuga is a golden age of truth and understanding. In this age, people achieve a perfect state of mind. Also, their actions are always reasoned.
