End of the world?

Hi.

I saw this quote:

"Each of the Divine Manifestations has...a cycle, and during the
cycle His laws and commandments prevail and are performed. When His
cycle is completed in the appearance of a new Manifestation, a new
cycle begins. In this way cycles begin, and are renewed, until a
universal Cycle is completed in the world, when important events and
great occurrences will take place which entirely efface every trace
and
record of the past; then a new universal cycle begins in the world."
(Abdu'l-Baha in Some Answered Questions, pp. 160-161)

Does this mean that eventually we will regress to becoming "primitive"
again sometime? Is it going to happen soon? Is this the apocalypse
talked about in the Bible??? Has it already started???
