According to traditions going back to pre-Vedic times, Kali sprang
from the third eye of the Goddess Durga as a destructive and
terrifying manifestation of feminine power sent to lay waste to the
forces of evil. Throughout India to this day, Kali is worshipped as
the destroyer of bondage, capable of liberating her devotee from
all rules and subjugation. In The Tantric Kali, Daniel Odier
presents the mythology, practices, and rituals of Kali worship in
the Tantric Kaula tradition within Kashmiri Shaivism. He reveals
the practices of Vamachara, commonly known as the Left-hand Path
but more accurately translated as the Path of Shakti. In this
tradition the body itself is Kali's temple, and it is therefore
unnecessary to reject or deny the body to know union with the
divine. Instead, nothing is regarded as pure or impure and there is
complete freedom from rules. Focused on working directly with
forbidden emotions and behaviors, this path allows the seeker to
transcend obstacles to liberation through sexual union. According
to the Kaula Upanishad, "In your behavior do the opposite to what
the norms dictate but remain in consciousness." This is the essence
of Tantra. Kali is absolute reality: manifested as woman
intoxicated by desire, she frees the tantric practitioner from all
desire except union with the divine.
