> Lately, I have done a little reading on kALi
> I am drawn toward images of kALi
This getting drawn from within is Her Grace
The most authentic source on Mother kALi
is the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna
and Sri Ramakrishna the Great Master
Both are publications of the Sri Ramakrishna Mission
> I'm wondering what she is all about.
Keep up the Flame of aspiration based on Wonder
Wonder is a Spiritual Quality
It is the Seed for All Realisations of God
> what personification to use for addressing K?
Since you are being drawn to Mother kALi,
use Her Form for addressing the K issues
I shall post separately the Divine Conversations of Sri Ramakrishna
on His own Personal Spiritual Experiences
Thanks and kind regards
RK Shankar
Here is a Poem on Mother kALi
which Sri Ramakrishna used to sing in in Bengali
O, Mother, Saviour of the helpless, You, the Slayer of Sin!
In You the three Attributes dwell - Light, Restlessness and Inertia.
You create, sustain and destroy the world!
You remove the terrors of this world
The Resplendent and the Indescribable Self are You
You dwell alike in the three, the past, present and future!
You are the Transcendent One beyond the three, the Fourth
You pervade the universe and all manifestation are You
For devotees, You assume many Forms!
You are all the Descents of God on Earth!
You appear with Form, to those who worship You as a Person
You are the Absolute, to those who adore the Formless Truth
All Philosophy seeks to know Your Inmost Nature!
But, none has yet found You our in Your Fullness!
Binding Yourself with attributes, You transcend them yet!
For, You are the All! kALi, You are! You are the Ultimate Nature!
