अरे युगांतर, आ जल्दी अब खोल, खोल मेरा बंधन बंधा हुआ इन जंजीरों से तड़प रहा कब से जीवन देख, कटी पाँखें कैंची से उड़ सकता न जरा भी मन भरा कान, पाँव है लंगड़ा, अँधा बना हुआ लोचन ले जा यह तन ऐसा जीवन, बदले में दे जा यौवन देजा उस युग का मेरा मन, बदले में लेजा सब धन आजा ला दे कण-कण में अब फ़िर से ऐसा परिवर्तन मरता जहाँ आज यह जीवन वहाँ करे यौवन नर्तन

Goddess Kali

Paired Painting

Goddess Kali

In this powerful depiction, the divine Mother stands as the ultimate destroyer of illusion, her form radiating the fierce and protective love that transcends worldly fears. Her dark skin absorbs all light and color, symbolizing the infinite void from which creation springs and into which it eventually returns. Stepping upon the inert form of Lord Shiva, she pauses in her wild dance of dissolution, a potent reminder that consciousness without divine energy is motionless. The garland of skulls and severed arms she wears are not symbols of malice, but trophies of conquered ego, freeing the human soul from the heavy chains of attachment. Through the masterful lithography popularized by the Ravi Varma Press, this profound spiritual vision entered countless homes, inviting devotees to look past external terrors and embrace the liberating grace of the supreme feminine power.
