'''Kali''' is the most fearsome of [[Shiva]]’s consorts. She is depicted as dark blue in color with fierce, blazing eyes. Kali is usually shown with a terrifying countenance, her tongue protruding, wearing a necklace of human skulls or heads and a belt of severed arms. In one hand she holds a sword, in the others she may hold the severed head of a demon, a shield or a noose; her hands may also make the sign of fearlessness and offer blessings and benefits.
'''Kali''' es la más temible de las consortes de Shiva. Se la representa de
color azul oscuro con ojos fieros y resplandecientes, habitualmente con un
semblante aterrador, con la lengua fuera y llevando un collar de calaveras
o cabezas humanas y un cinturón de brazos cortados. En una mano lleva
una espada y en las otras puede llevar la cabeza cortada de un demonio,
un escudo o una soga; sus manos también hacen la señal de la intrepidez
y ofrecen bendiciones y beneficios.


Kali’s dread appearance symbolizes her boundless power. Her destructiveness is seen as ultimately leading to transformation and salvation. The object of her wrath is not the outer form of man but his inner delusions. She shatters the delusions of the ego and destroys ignorance, even as she brings blessings to those who seek to know God. She destroys the form and substance of human creations (with the white-fire, blue-lightning and [[Ruby ray|ruby-ray]] action of her sword) that are not aligned with the will of her consort, thus liberating those who seek the knowledge of God. Kali is a symbol of destruction, yet she bestows blessings upon those who seek knowledge of God, and she is revered by her devotees as the Divine Mother.
