Mother Kali — The Adyashakti #89

It is proclaimed by Vedic and Tantric adepts alike that the Divine Mother of the Universe has five main aspects, known as Prakriti Panchaka in Divine Mother scriptures. At the head of these five aspects is Mother Durga, also seen as Mother Kali. She is the Mother of spiritual transformation. Beings who worship Her are not in the body for purposes of enjoyment, wealth, powers, or even sporting in consciousness — in the “many fields of the Lord.” They are present to master awareness and unite it with Her in the highest nonduality. Mother Kali, in Her scripture, The Srimad Devi Bhagavatam, cites two specific pathways along which this ultimate goal can be accomplished. They are Avyaya Yoga and Dharana Yoga, and Her instructions about them grace this dharma art wisdom chart — along with a stunning image of Her and Her precious son, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa.
