Kroni is a figure in Ayyavazhi Mythology . He is the primordial manifestation of Evil , and manifests in various forms of evil, such as Ravana and Duryodhana , in different ages or Yugas . In order to counteract and destroy the evil of Kroni's manifestations, Mayon (a Tamil name for Vishnu ), incarnates as Avatars such as Rama and Krishna . He is analogous to Satan in the Judaeo-Christian tradition. KRONI IN THE AKILATTIRATTU AMMANAI According to the ).'' FRAGMENTS OF KRONI The six fragments of Kroni were then born as evil spirits (or Asuras ) in six successive Yukams (aeons). In all the yukams Mayon had to incarnate in the world to destroy the evils. The six fragments were then known as # Kuntomasali # Thillaimallalan and Mallosivakanan # Suraparppan Sinkamukasuran and Iraniyan # Ravanan # Thuriyothanan and the Ninety-nine Brothers # Kaliyan Kroni, the spirit of Kali Yuga , is said to be omnipresent in the present age, and this why one of the reasons why followers of Ayya Vazhi, like other Hindus, believe that the current yuga, Kali Yuga , is so degraded.
