説明 | This is one of the Hindu statues that impacted the most: Kali (feminine form of Sanskrit kala, "time" or "dark" consort of the Hindu god Shiva). She is frequently depicted as a black, laughing, naked hag with blood-stained teeth, a protruding tongue, and a garland of human skulls. According with the story, she helped a queen to deliver her baby but her arrogant husband refused to pay her dues. Throwing the king to the floor, disemboweled his wife and wore her guts. |
