Kalli Maa
KALIKA DEVI
(A Symbol of death and destruction) 
Kali is derived from the word Kaala which stands for
two meanings -
1. time or age 2. darkness. It is believed that there
was a state
of total darkness before the origin of Universe;
no life existed anywhere! Total Chaos! The age of death
and destruction!
Kali Maa is another roop (form) of Durga Maa. She was
created by Durga Maa to help in the fight against demons.
She is the ferocious aspect of Durga. According to the
Puranas, this image of Durga as Kali, so widely worshipped
in eastern parts of India, owes its origin to the battle
of Durga with Shumbha and Nishumbha. She is also known
as the slayer of the demon Raktavija by drinking the
drops of his blood and not allowing them to fall on
the ground.
Actually, death is the cause of a new life and destruction
is the
cause of a new shape. This energy is represented as
Meri Maiya Kalika.
SHE produces the netherworlds and destroys them, to
HER desire or will
