The Hindu Goddess Mother Kali statue image.There came a time when there was so much evil that mother durga couldn't take it any more that she grew angry and came to earth as Mother Kali.Kali maa destroyed all the demons and had to drink their blood for our sake for if it fell on the floor the demons would multiply. In her rage she, herself was causing destruction being such a powerful goddess.Toxicated from the demons blood she began to stamp her foot on the ground .She was beseeched by all the Hindu Gods to stop,but she was consumed.Her power is so great that one final stomp would have caused an earthquake powerful enough to destroy the world.
