Guest guest Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Namaste Santo Thank you for the explaination to aid my understanding. Now I am not ungrateful, I mean this, however yes Chamunda is a name for Kali, but are there some texts, mantras, rituals that are Kali specific. I thought Kaali's bija mantra was Kreem, and while Kleem also represents her, I would love to know more about the "Kreem of Kali", and then hopefully broaden the glow to her representations. Her 100 names makes sense to me in this regard. I believe she also has a 1000 names; please can some one share these with me, with their meaning if possible. Thank you my friends for aiding this ignoramous :-) With love, Vir Now I am curious as to why Santo Sengupta <s.santo.sengupta wrote: On 4/2/06, Vir Rawlley <redderred wrote:Thank you very much Max, I will look these up. Sorry to be a bore, but could you please tell me if there is something Kali specific.

In the 3rd Carita, Ambika Devi first manifests Kali from her third eye to aid in the slaying of the Asuras Canda, Munda and Raktibija. Camunda is the name given to Mother Kali upon the destruction of Canda and Munda, so this mantra in fact does contain Mother Kali's name. And bija mantra "KLEEM" represents Mahakali as well.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Yes, it would be great maybe if we took some time for Mahakali in this group again after all these years?! I also especially like talking about this Navavarana sadhana and the San Jivanini mantra. Sidhi can bring the dead back to life. Good for healing. That's Kali. Can someone explain how She who lops off the head of her devotees can also bring the dead back to life? - Vir Rawlley Monday, April 03, 2006 9:33 PM Re: Kali specific Namaste Santo Thank you for the explaination to aid my understanding.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Namaste Vir, Jai MAA KALI!! Here is something from a Kali Puja book - i hope u like it! :-) "Kala means Darkness; Kali takes away that Darkness. She takes away Darkness from every individual who strives in the path of perfection by performing spiritual disciplines of purifying austerities....." Kala means Time and i is the Cause; Kali, the Cause of Time or She Who is Beyond Time. All existence has its perception in time, and therefore the Cause of Tiem, She Who is Beyond Time, activates Consciousness to perception, allows Consciousness to perceive." Isn't it beautiful - I love Mother Kali -- How She helps all Her children to come out of darkness, out of dirt, out of ego - to truth, to beauty, to love and light! Om Hrim Shrim Krim Parameswari Kalike Swaaha. You had asked about the meaning of "Krim". In this mantra, Swami Satyananda (Devi Mandir) translates it as "Dissolving into Perfection". In the Kali Puja book, there are 100 names of Kali (shatanaam) as well as 1000 Names -- and the 1000 names are soooo beautiful - indescribable. Please let me know if this helps. Thank you very much for this opportunity to share our love for our Divine Mother!

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 the other part of negatives such as Vir has described experiencing (curses) is that it too is Kali prasaad (or Bhairavi, perhaps). One way of looking at riding the tiger...
