Kali Puja
Kaali maata is ferocious and fearful form of goddess Shakti. She is the personification of strength and Shakti. She is the omnipotent power and enlightens the divine purity. Kali puja is done as a remembrance of triumph over evil energies. It is done on the night of karthika amavasya in the month of ashwini (oct/nov). It is known to kill ego in people .She is one of the 10 incarnations of Shakti.
Kali puja has a mythological instance. Once upon a time there were 2 demons, shambu and Nishambu got virtues from Lord Shiva and started thinking that were great. They started war on Indra and started disturbing all the gods. Then all the gods went Lord Vishnu who advised them to seek the help of Shakti maatha. Then all gods worshipped goddess Shakti and she took the form of Goddess Shakti and she took the form of Goddess kali and killed both the demons in a fearful way. She emerged/evolved to destroy evil from the world; Dakini and Jogini are the escorts of kali.
People celebrate it with great respect and reverence. All the houses will be decorated with flowers and rangolis. People perform puja at the might time to gain blessings of Kali maatha. Many bajans and parayana’s are done in the memory of her. People lit lamps all over their houses and burn crackers as a symbol of triumph of good over evil.
In all the Shakti peetas, Tantrik puja will be done. All Hindus perform kaali puja with great reverence.
