I think creating is so important because you learn so much about yourself. You learn your taste, you learn your qualities, your mistakes, you discover your imagination and you practice your freedom.

             Kali The Destroyer - Shiva - Black Tantra 

“Your Kundalini is your life force; without it you’re dead.  Thiis is what black tantra hopes to produce, to give the initiate to the dark lodge a near death experience one more threatening than the mystic death of white tantra. speaking from experience… there is nothing more testing than black tantra’s descending serpent. She is now Kali The Destroyer,  the force animating the matter, whereas Shiva is the energy of matter. Kali The Destroyer, Slaying with her sword the false consciousness of man and stripping the “I” from mans heart. She is the beautiful love, but there is no love without death, she is the love yet also she is the fall that created the rise to infinite possibility.”

- The Anonymous Spiritualist

“Her nudity is said to represent totally illumined consciousness, unaffected by maya. Kali is the bright fire of truth, which cannot be hidden by the clothes of ignorance. Such truth simply burns them away.”

“The Goddess Kali is represented as black in color. Black in the ancient Hindu language of Sanskrit is kaala. The feminine form is kali. So she is Kali, the black one. Black is a symbol of The Infinite and the seed stage of all colors. The Goddess Kali remains in a state of inconceivable darkness that transcends words and mind. Within her blackness is the dazzling brilliance of illumination. Kali’s blackness symbolizes her all-embracing, comprehensive nature, because black is the color in which all the colors merge; black absorbs and dissolves them.“Just as all colours disappear in black, so all names and forms disappear in her”
