KALI AND ME...


Graphic (c) La Reina Helena 2009

"..Can mercy be found in the heart of her who was born of stone?
Were she not merciless, would she kick the breast of her lord?
Men call you merciful,
But there is no trace of mercy in you,Mother.
You have cut off the heads of the children of others,
and these you wear as a garland around your neck.
It matters not how much I call you
"Mother, Mother."
You hear me, but you will not listen.."

Kali is the "feminine" of Kala..

"..At the dissolution of things,
It is Kala (Time) Who will devour all..
By reason of this He is called Mahakala..
And since Thou devourest Mahakala Himself,
It is Thou who art the Supreme Primordial Kalika.
Because Thou devourest Kala, Thou art Kali,
The original form of all things,
And because Thou art the Origin of and devourest all things
Thou art called the Adya Kali...
Resuming after Dissolution Thine own form, dark and formless,
Thou alone remainest as One ineffable and inconceivable.
Though having a form, yet art Thou formless..
Though Thyself without beginning,
Multiform by the power of Maya,
Thou art the Beginning of all,
Creatrix, Protectress, and Destructress that Thou art..."
