Jai Maa Kali 🙏🏻

Описание: Jai Maa Kali 🙏🏻


Maa Kali is a fierce, yet maternal Hindu goddess who embodies time, destruction, and transcendence. She is typically depicted with a dark complexion, multiple arms, a garland of severed heads, and sometimes stands on Lord Shiva. Her symbolism includes the annihilation of the ego, the inevitability of change, and the protection of devotees, representing the unbridled power of the universe.
Appearance and symbolism
Complexion: Dark or blue-black complexion signifies her timeless, eternal existence, outside the constraints of time.
Multiple Arms: Her many arms symbolize her power to accomplish many tasks at once.
Weapons: She often holds a sword and a bowl. The sword can represent higher knowledge and the power to cut through illusion, while the bowl may collect blood.
Garland and Skirt: A garland of severed heads and a skirt of severed arms represent the destruction of the ego and freedom from karma.
Tongue and Teeth: A lolling tongue and fangs can symbolize her bloodlust or her fierce commitment to righteousness.
Three Eyes: Her three eyes represent omniscience—the past, present, and future.
Hair: Wild, disheveled hair can symbolize her unbridled nature, blood lust, and the mystery of life and death.
Nakedness: Her nakedness represents purity, freedom from illusion, and her primal, natural state.
Position on Shiva: When shown on top of Shiva, she is considered the active force, indicating her power over destruction and that the world is still created through her actions, even as it is destroyed.
Roles and attributes
Maternal Protector: Despite her fearsome appearance, she is revered as a kind and loving mother who fiercely protects her devotees.
Goddess of Time and Change: She embodies the destructive and creative forces of time, a power that dismantles the old to create the new.
Destroyer of Evil and Ignorance: She is the force that purifies and destroys ignorance, illusions, and the ego.
Embodiment of Shakti: Kali represents primal, unbridled power (Shakti) that cuts through illusion to reveal absolute reality.
Formless Being: For some devotees, she can represent the formless aspect of the Divine, with form being a tool for teaching.
