Kali Puja

According to myths, goddess Kali was born out of the brow of Goddess Durga during one of her battles with the evil forces. During the battle, Kali was so much in a killing spree that she began destroying everything that came in her sight. To stop her, Lord Shiva threw himself under her feet. Shocked by this, Kali stuck out her tongue in astonishment and put an end to her rampage. Photo: Collected
