Adya Kali: Approaching the Primordial Dark Goddess Through the Song of Her Hundred Names
In Praise of Adya Kali celebrates the goddess Kali and her worship culture in West Bengal and South Asia. Unlike other modern books on this Dark Goddess, this book provides a worship liturgy—the Song of the Hundred Names of Adya Kali—a spiritual practice that readers can use to establish a direct devotional connection with Kali. Additionally, In Praise of Adya Kali serves as a contextual guide, positioning this practice as a fundamental approach to life. Most significantly, the liturgy's text and accompanying commentaries offer an intimate revelation of how the goddess establishes herself in the bodies of her devotees and intervenes in their lives through unconditional love and acceptance.
The book features an extensive introduction, blending scholarly analysis with personal insight, that delves into the goddess and the potential benefits of these prayers. Aditi Devi offers guidance on creating a Kali shrine, making various offerings to her, and provides a suggested schedule for using the liturgy over the course of 108 nights with a long-term commitment.
"This Song of the Hundred Names is a powerful teaching that all forms are her forms," the author observes. Readers, regardless of gender, are given the opportunity to tap into their internal feminine energies, leading to greater healing and completeness, and a more ready expression of this often overlooked aspect of themselves.
Aditi Devi's extensive spiritual practice and immersion in living Tantric lineages in South Asia underpin this book. Visit aditidevi.com for more information.
