Kali" Fue despedazada por Vishnu y su cuerpo se distribuye en 51 pedazos que dieron nacimiento a 51 templos como el de Calcutta. La estatua en piedra negra de la diosa Kali, basándose en una flor de loto en plata, nos da la bienvenida al templo.
Considerada como la diosa de la destrucción y de la muerte, y parte importante en el mito de la creación del mundo. Como diosa temible, agrupó bajo su culto a una secta que ha sido históricamente considerada como una de las más sangrientas: la de los Thug, palabra cuyo significado es el de engaño.
Su origen se basa en el libro sagrado del hinduismo, el Purana, que es donde se relata el mito de la creación del mundo anteriormente mencionado. Cuenta la mitología hindú que un demonio habitaba la Tierra y la dominaba, impidiendo que los humanos pudieran establecerse en ella. Kali fue la diosa que se enfrentó a él, pero ocurría que por cada herida que el demonio recibía, y de cada gota de sangre que de ella manaba, surgía un nuevo demonio. Kali entonces creó de su sudor a dos hijos que la ayudaran en la batalla, dándoles dos pañuelos anudados, llamados rumal con los que acabarían con el demonio estrangulándolo.
Homero la menciona como juanita seis brazos en el capitulo donde se va a trabajar en la planta Indu del Sr. Burns, y Apu cambia de deidad segun su conveniencia entre Kali y Ganesh.

Kali" It was broken by Vishnu and its body is distributed in 51 pieces that gave birth to 51 temples like the one of Calcutta. The black stone statue of the Kali goddess, being based on a flower of loto in silver, gives the welcome us to the temple. Considered like the goddess of the destruction and the death, and important part in the myth of the creation of the world. Like frightful goddess, it grouped under his cult a sect that historically has been considered like one of bloodiest: the one of the Thug, word whose meaning is the one of deceit.
Its origin is based on the sacred book of Hinduism, the Purana, that is where the myth of the creation of the world previously mentioned is related. It counts the Hindu mythology that a demon inhabited the Earth dominated and it, preventing that the humans could settle down themselves in her. Kali was the goddess that faced him, but happened that by each wound who the demon received, and from each drop of blood who of her flowed, a new demon arose. Then Kali created of its sweat to two children helped who it in the battle, giving them two tieed handkerchiefs, calls rumal with which they would end the demon strangling it.
Homero mentions like juanita six arms in the chapter where it is going away to work in the Indu plant of Mr. Burns, and Apu changes of deity according to its convenience between Kali and Ganesh.
I love the way that this picture is put together. It is very beautiful, and I keep finding new things to be intrigued by the more that I look at it. Great work!
This is so well done, well thought of, and brilliantly executed!!! I myself worship the Morrigan, a similar figure, and find this deeply moving. great job!
