Answer

In Jain Dharma, time has no final end; it moves in endless cycles of avasarpiṇī and utsarpiṇī. We are currently in the fifth āra of the present avasarpiṇī, and this phase is traditionally said to last 21,000 years. ( jainworld.jainworld.com)

Explanation

So if by “current time cycle” you mean the present half-cycle, it does not end forever—it eventually completes and the next ascending cycle begins. If you mean the current fifth āra, Jain tradition places its end far in the future, roughly around 20,000 CE, though exact calculations can vary slightly depending on the traditional starting point used.

Spiritual Understanding

This teaching reminds us that worldly conditions keep changing. Jain Dharma encourages us not to depend on the age for our spiritual progress, but to practice right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct in any era. ( jainworld.jainworld.com)

Takeaway

The current Jain time cycle does not end permanently; it continues in endless turning. The present fifth āra is said to continue for 21,000 years in total. ( jainworld.jainworld.com)
