Wheel of time
For the fantasy series by Robert Jordan, see The Wheel of Time.The
wheel of time or
wheel of history is a concept in several religions and philosophies, notably
dharmic religions such as
Buddhism and
Hinduism, which regard time as
cyclical and consisting of repeating ages.
See Kalachakra for details.The Wheel of time or Kalachakra is a Tantric deity that is also associated with
Tibetan Tantric Buddhism, which encompasses all four main schools and traditions which are
Sakya,
Nyingma,
Kagyu and
Gelug, and is especially important within the lesser-known
Jonang tradition.
The Kalachakra is prophecied to bring about a cosmic challenge to the world within which (spiritual) conflict an Armageddon-style war will be waged which will see the advent of a new realm named
Shambhala and the coming of a messianical king of the kingdom.
