the great kali
The great Kali is the loving “divine mother” of her children. The great mother keeps her beloved children on her lap and close to her breast. On the other hand she is also the destroyer of illusions, delusions and the ego. Anyone with a modicum of ego trembles before the goddess and runs for cover, but to no avail.
Kali and the eternal game of “hide and seek”
The great mother plays the game of “hide and seek” with her children, and her children enjoy the game to the core. Sitting on mother Kali’s lap, her children wait to see when the great mother opens her eyes. In such anticipation, the children close their eyes and go to sleep and then the great mother opens her eyes and looks lovingly at her children. Although the eyes are closed, the children feel a flash in their consciousness when the divine mother looks at them with such intensity. Immediately the children open their eyes but only find mother Kali with her eyes closed. A wide range of emotions encompasses “the beloved sons of the mother” as they beg mother Kali to look at them again. The mother smiles but keeps her eyes closed. Then suddenly, without warning, the mother looks directly into the eyes of her children for a second.
The momentary look and the eternal truth
This momentary glance of the mother goddess opens the eternal truth in front of her children and they immediately realize the secrets of the entire universe. From then on, the lives of her children change forever. They realize the truth of existence and death and lose all fear and all feelings of restraint even though they continue to live a mortal life. Blessed are the children whom the great kali decides to look upon, for through this divine event these children of the mother realize their life vision and focus all their energies towards the realization of that vision.
nature joins the game
Not only that, but something else happens to their injured children and that’s a very nice thing. The “whole nature” returns to the blessed children of mother kali. The river, the mountains, the birds, the animals, the children, the people and all the forces of nature come to them and “celebrate” the realization of the eternal truth.
Finding life purpose through Kali
A look from mother kali is enough to change everything in our lives. From then on we are always on her lap and we can feel the warmth of her breasts. Through the eternal game of hide and seek we realize that she is part of our very existence. Indeed, the game of the great Kali continues and she leads us towards our life purpose and offers us the ultimate bliss of salvation and merger with her. Once we are part of the eternal game with the mother goddess, we become aware of our destiny and actively seek her to even change our destiny so that we can reach the final path of liberation with her blessings and her active help. Walking this path we realize that the godmother Kali will no longer leave us and we will no longer be able to exist without her. The bond is cemented for eternity. Everything we do becomes an offering to her and every path we choose is through her awareness and her blessing. So when her eyes are closed, mother Kali asks us to look for her and when her eyes are open, she makes us aware of the reality that she has always been with us and will always be “there” for us. The eternal game of hide-and-seek is the game of love by which the great mother leads us along the path of life that we have dedicated to her in the first place.
The supreme manifestation of nature.
Apart from seeking her love as “mother goddess” we can call her for our rescue and help as the supreme manifestation of nature. When we invoke her in this way, she takes the form and shape of the primordial warrior goddess for the spiritual war of existence. In this way, she gives all the strength to defeat the extreme negative forces deep within our internal universe, as well as those that exist in the external universe, which tend to become a barrier to our life’s progress towards liberation.
Invoking the primordial goddess
We can invoke her daily in our mediation with a unified focus of our conscious, subconscious and superconscious minds. We can mediate it as follows.
“When the night is darkest, when the stars are almost hidden, when there is a brief silence before the storm, I walk in the dark towards the field of death. I see the dance of death and the fire of the pyres. around me. I sit in the center of this field of death and meditate on the great Kali to manifest in her abundant form. She surely hears me and with love comes. The darkest of clouds surrounds the heavens and there is the lightning and Sudden thunder shakes my spine. Every hair on my body stands on end as the roaring, swirling wind passes through the field of death. Millions of souls of the dead gather on the field signaling the beginning of the dance of the dead. The mighty sea becomes restless, the moon hides in darkness and the calm of the night gives way to a storm of unbelievable proportions. Nature goes mad with frenzy, all the weak hide in fear and I stand still awaiting the arrival of the great goddess goddess. comes in splendor mother ark dancing her dance of death and laughing uncontrollably she throws herself at me. She looks dark, scary and menacing. She looks at me and consumes me completely. My existence means nothing now that I am a part of her and she is a part of me. I transcend death to be reborn. I awaken to true life to see through the great mother’s purpose that is so well defined for me. I become Kali and she becomes me.
The loving mother and the goddess of death.
The great Kali is as loving as he is terrible. She looks terrible to the ego as she destroys the ego to love you forever. She is indeed the one who gives birth to everyone. Nothing ever existed without her will and nothing will exist without her will. She destroys the army of mind-born delusions and elusions. She strikes terror into our bound, limited and contracted ego. The ego trembles in fear and runs for cover when she sees the dancer of death and destruction, black as coal, wielding a sword and stained with blood. But there is no escape. The ego will be destroyed in pieces. The ego will be totally consumed by the dark goddess. Once the ego dies, it is reborn in the form of the “divine self”. For some this happens in one lifetime and for some it may take many lifetimes. The choice is within us to embrace the goddess now or run from her and eventually fall at her feet anyway. To the initiates, who have been reborn as the divine self, she appears as the supremely beautiful, beloved and dear wife, performing a ballet of matchless grace, showering them with love.
The Goddess who is beyond our imagination
The Great Kali is the goddess who is beyond our imagination and can never be understood by the mind alone. The essence of what she symbolizes is beyond the mind. If we try to understand it only through the mind, we may end up in darkness and go no further. To know the great Kali and walk the Kali path we need to transcend our individual sense of self and unify our mind, body, heart, soul and the external universe. Only through this unification of our inner and outer universe can we think of diving into the unknown and seeking Goddess Kali in her seductive, radiant, black form. Once we begin to swim in the vastness of the unknown, we lose the fear of existence and death and begin to recognize the overwhelming mystery of the goddess. Such surrender to her eventually allows us to totally dissolve into her velvety midnight embrace. This would be the dearest move when by her grace we can know the unspeakable truth of her love, even when we are annihilated by her infinity.
Meditating the goddess
We need to meditate on it with our conscious, subconscious and superconscious mind in unification with our body, heart and soul. We can use any method we please and even breathing her name day and night will awaken her in our inner being. Her awakening is the sign of our higher ascent. At this juncture we can see the game of the cosmic mother. We can hear her whisper that tells us in a loving tone that she is behind everything living and dead, inborn and living. She makes us aware that all sounds in the universe originate from her and end in her. We are made aware that she is omnipresent and omnipotent and in fact each letter of the alphabet constitutes her intuitive wisdom and her entire universe worships and prostrates before her. In this way, we link with Goddess Kali and she links with us. We bound her hands and feet with diamond threads of pure love.
The Om Kali Ma Mantra
Goddess Kali’s mantra, “Om kali ma” is the vehicle that can be used to attain her mastery during meditation. Whatever the form of the meditation and whatever the form of the call, reciting the simple mantra of Kali will transfer us to higher awakening and her universe. The mantra “Om Kali ma” will lift us into her world and bring her into us through all possible pathways, including the mind, heart, blood, breath, and soul. At this level she becomes us and we become her. This is the time when we witness her divine dance and hear the divine melodies of her singing. We experience the eternal truth and transcend the world of the living as well as the world of the dead to reach the world of nothingness and nothingness. The realization of eternal truth helps us overcome the brutalities and limitations of life and death. At this juncture we lose our fear of the great Kali and no longer restrict our vision to a narrow form of the mother where she is depicted as a demure, unassuming, predictable, easily appreciable, sweetly divine, beautiful to look at and full of life goddess. . to engender goodness. Instead, we love to watch her parade through a ghastly reality, unflappable in her ways, unleashing her limitless creative power, thrilling mind and body with overwhelming sensual delights, propelling the spirit into awe-inspiring transcendent realms, and crushing us in the jaws. weather. , decline and suffering. In fact we beseech mother Kali to show us her terrible form as we are no longer afraid to know the eternal truth and we know what lies beyond her dance of death. We need to understand that only by appreciating and loving each form of mother Kali can we think of achieving true liberation.
