c7.19

By the Telinga reckoning of Southern India the cycle began twelve years before the Kâli-Yuga, the first year of which corresponds with Pramatha, the thirteenth year of the cycle. The rule for ascertaining the cycle year for any particular date is simply to divide the expired years of the Kali-Yuga by 60, and the quotient will give the number of expired years.
