Kali Spiritual Goddess -The Destroyer Of Evil
Kali Spiritual Goddess A few years ago, I was introduced to the Goddess Kali. A friend, a devotee of Kali, had given me the name of a web site that was dedicated to her. When I first saw a picture of her, I was horrified. I did not know what to think. Was she good or evil? The more I looked at her, the more inclined I was to believe that she was on the evil side. She had all of the makings of something evil- blood, skulls, chopped heads, etc. To me they were all signs of a diabolic nature. As I began to familiarize myself with the Goddess, I realized that my initial reaction was inappropriate. I was guilty of doing the very thing that I detested- judging a person or thing based on its appearance. I began to see her differently. She was no longer the dark and evil creature that I initially saw. Instead, she was the light in the middle of darkness. She was a warrior, fighting evil at full force. As time continued to move on, the thought of the Goddess began to slowly fade away from my mind. From time to time, I would pass by a statue of the Goddess that I possess, smile and continue on my way. It was very recent that the Goddess' name began to resurface in my mind. Out of nowhere, I began to feel a strong and powerful urge to paint her. I felt as if she was anxiously waiting to come out. Although I had started another painting, I placed it aside and commenced painting her portrait (see the Kali Spiritual Goddess painting above). During the painting process, I was instructed to use certain items. One of the items was wire for her hair. At first, I thought the idea was outlandish. But after completing the process, I was very pleased with the outcome (see the picture below).
Even though I am not a follower of the Goddess, I am a listener. During the process of painting her portrait, information was revealed to me. It felt, at times, as if I was having a conversation with the woman I was painting. As words and images began to unfold, I began to understand her true nature. There is more to the Goddess than what is presented in her paintings and statues. Kali Spiritual Goddess has been misconstrued by many individuals around the globe. She is seen as a dark devilish creature. She is neither dark nor devilish. On the contrary, she is full of light and goodness. She emits light to all of her followers showing them the path to righteousness and enlightenment, Some individuals call her Mother Kali. In fact, she is mother to all of her followers. She protects, guides and nurtures all of her children. And, as a good mother, she finds it necessary to discipline those who have gone astray. Being a follower of the Goddess is not an easy task. It requires honesty, devotion, and willingness to strip oneself of all mundane feelings such as self-centeredness, anger, hate, fear, bigotry, etc. She requires that her children travel deep inside the self, face their demons and yank them out. This could be an arduous and frightening task for some.
Although she can be extremely benevolent, she can also be very disciplinary. Many followers find themselves facing the same life lessons repeatedly. It is her way of letting them know that they have not gotten the lesson right, and more work is needed. What a person believes he or she is doing right, may not be right in her eyes.
There are times when her presence is felt strongly on the planet. It is a time when she is in full force fighting against evil. Additionally, it is a time when destruction is needed in order to reconstruct. Kali’s message is very straightforward- be loyal to yourself and others; destroy all negative behaviors and inner thoughts that are preventing you from reaching enlightenment; and walk in the light.
If you desire her help, just ask her. If you are sincere in your request, she will always be there for you. She will protect and keep you safe from all negative forces. Always remember to never to call her for any evil doings, or selfish motives. If you do, your head may be one of the many she wears around her waist. May Kali Spiritual Goddess watch over you and protect you from all that is evil.
