To: alt.pagan,alt.magick.tyagi From: tyagI@houseofkaos.Abyss.coM (tyagi mordred nagasiva) Subject: Kali: Nasty Lady (9409.kalima-.mm) Keywords: Kali Ma, Terror, Munificence Summary: Mammary, Horror Date: 49940918 From _The Song of Eve_, by Manuela Mascetti (please excuse its butchered English) "...Kali wipes everything away restoring existence to its natural way so that the gods may come back bringing an undivided view of life. "This awe-inspiring Goddess is the personification of the good and terrible mother, of the creator and destroyer in all its grandiose form of life, love, death and destruction. She is traditionally portrayed as the Black Mother, squatting over her dead consort Shiva, eating his entrails while her yoni is sexually devouring his lingam. Worshipers of Kali must accept death as part of her Curse for she represents both sides of the coin of existience. The Goddess was the personification of the eternal living flux, from which all things rose and then disappeared. She was the material cause of all change, manifestation and destruction. "Blood was a strong part of Kali's worship as a traveler to her temple in India reported: "'The temple simply serves as a slaughterhouse, for those performing the sacrifice retain their animals, leaving only the head in the temple as a symbolic gift, while the blood flows to the Goddess. For to the Goddess is due the life blood of all creatures - since it is she who has bestowed it - and that is why the beast must be slaughtered in her temple. That is why slaughterhouse and temple are one. "'This rite is performed amid gruesome filth. In the mud compounded of blood and earth, the heads of animals are heaped up like trophies before the statue of the Goddess, while those sacrificing return home for a family banquet of the bodies of their animals. The Goddess desires only the blood of the offerings, hence beheading is the form of sacrifice, since the blood drains quickly from the beheaded beasts....
