Truth (Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 12.2.1)
śrī-śuka uvāca
tataś cānu-dinaḿ dharmaḥ
satyaḿ śaucaḿ kṣamā dayā
kālena balinā rājan
nańkṣyaty āyur balaḿ smṛtiḥ (Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 12.2.1)
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: Then, O King, religion, truthfulness, cleanliness, tolerance, mercy, duration of life, physical strength, and memory will all diminish day by day because of the powerful influence of the age of Kali.
During the present age, Kali-yuga, practically all desirable qualities will gradually diminish, as described in this verse. For example, dharma, which indicates a respect for higher authority that leads one to obey religious principles, will diminish.
