- Kali seems to be of dark complexion because She is far off. When you know Her, She does not appear dark.
- The forms of Kali and Shyama are three and a half cubits high because of distance. On account of distance, the sun seems small. If you go near, it will look big beyond your imagination.
- Yogamaya means the union of Purusha and Prakriti. Whatever you see is the union of Purusha and Prakriti. In the image of Shiva and Kali, Kali stands on Shiva; he lies like a corpse while Kali looks down at him.
- Fence it around with Kali’s name, and your crop will not be harmed? Take refuge in God and you’ll get everything. This fence of the Divine Mother with long flowing hair is very strong.
- If you reach the Mother of the Universe, you will get love and devotion as well as spiritual knowledge. In bhava samadhi, you see God with form; in Nirvikalpa Samadhi, you see Akhanda Sat-chit-ananda (Indivisible, Absolute Existence-Knowledge-Bliss).
- Kali’s devotees are free in this very life. They are full of unending joy.
- Call on the Divine Mother with a longing heart. The liquid of worldly desire dries up on seeing Her; your attachment to ‘lust and greed’ will fully disappear. It happens at the very moment you realize that He is your own Mother.
- Praying to God addressing Him, ‘Mother, Mother,’ this is very good. They say that one is attracted more by mother than by father. You can force your mother, but you can’t force your father.
- Brahman and Kali are one and the same. They are like fire and its burning power. If one thinks of fire, its burning power immediately comes to mind. When one accepts Kali, one has to accept Brahman.
