Kali and Shiva

Mythic Couples/Modern Meanings
The President's Class

Tantra in sanskrit means to weave or loom.... it's not satanic or about spells.

I never had problems with Kali, understanding her as a primal, chaotic principle of creation, a dispenser and giver of life and destroyer of illusion, egoism and selfishness. She is a raging force, untameable, impossible to control, drive or direct, which follows her own wild feminine principles of a unconditional giver. Sadhguru talks a lot about Shiva but I never heard him talking about the Kali/Shiva relation. He talks about Kali in a separate context, and explains that Kali is a mess. Kali is trouble (As if Shiva weren't?)... I appreciated this video and the arguments and points about both deities. Thank you!

[@levcimac]

I wonder if that is because Sadhguru's spirituality is rooted in more masculine principles that are transcendent. The tantrik schools would another example of an Indian spiritual tradition which includes what we would associate as feminine principles.

Isn’t that a women for ya!!!

Kali- shown as a mother anger whose child have been suffered by monster. It’s a symbolism of what extent a mother can go for their children. she is unconsciousness of what she was doing- when women or another dragged to the destruction because of your act- that’s what you get is the symbolism. God were never kicked out from their places in the stories but their children of heaven-

Blessed Kali Ma! Jai Kali Ma!

[@rajdeepvijayaraj4243]

Each story in the Hindu fold has 3 main perspectives - Shaivite, Vaishnavite and Shaktiite. Kali is considered supreme by the Shaktiite school while the Vaishnavite stories may place her at a place of subjugation to Vishnu. So it's important to look at all perspectives. I think while analysing Kali, the Shaktiite texts would be better sources.

Not science fiction,historical fact as real as the earth itself.

[@ArcticXun-936]

Jai Kali Ma, divine mother Goddess 🙏

[@sumitrapohkrel]

Tantra- come out from nature- like witches uses it spells. So, it come out of nature itself, mantras. Who’ see the dark background that holds when the stars appears in it- that background that holds every thing is kali.

[@Scullycats]

She killed innocent people after her blood bath with the demon who stole boon. and so thats why shiva came and laid before her to stop her, the demons duplicate are the ones around her neck.

[@VENNIVETTI]

Maybe Kali stuck out her tongue to taunt Shiva like children do.

[@sumitrapohkrel]

Her tongue stick out when she got into consciousness, nature is naked- did you see plant or or earth having it covered?? Or cloth-

Could it be that they buried there dead cause the smelled so bad and attracted maggots. Or if they were going to abandon the deceased, perhaps they buried them to protect them from being molested or desecrated by enemies or animals, and not necessarily something to do with the Afterlife.? Also about the Aryans.... could it be that the original inhabitants of India called the bringers of the vedas as Aryans because they were more refined, civilized, sophisticated, noble and charitable perhaps and mbe they just happen to be phenotypicallu what we know today as " white'

Mata Kali lastly called her love Shiva, ---‘ Shiva please give some Ganga (ham) to me. ‘ Shiva answered ---- all finished --Idiot, then I stranded more that 20 hour how I will do again in tomorrow. Shiva -- You have a full bottle wine on your leg -- smell it then suggest it’s just U…., my god what nasty, no fear of me! --- No the people not afraid to me. Mata ..---- it is the practice of time, Koli (evil) Koli, Shiva deep blackout-Koli. Yesterday one wife of a priest of Kamakkha married a women pickpocket, Shiva ---the priest is a gambler, first wife fled with a bus driver to save her life…. … Mata … what is about your snakes, … ---Very hopeless
