๐ŸšฉDuring the churning of the ocean, many treasures came out and one of them was the much desired Amruta (nectar of immortality).
๐ŸšฉAll the Gods and the demons were eyeing the Amruta, and soon they began to dispute over it. Bhagwan Vishnu appeared before them and asked them to sit in separate rows in order for the Amruta to be served to them.
๐ŸšฉHe also put on a condition that they should be content with whatever they would receive. Shri Vishnu then took the form of a very beautiful lady Mohini, and started to distribute the Amruta.
๐ŸšฉThe demons were so attracted by the captivating beauty of Mohini, that they didn't notice that She was only distributing the nectar to the Gods.
๐ŸšฉA demon Rahu saw this and disguised himself as a God and received his portion of the nectar and immediately gulped it. Chandra Dev (Moon God), saw this and promptly informed Bhagwan Vishnu about it. Shri Vishnu decapitated Rahu with His Sudarshan Chakra.
๐ŸšฉRahu's head flung upwards in the sky and his body fell towards the western side of the ocean.
๐ŸšฉKnowing this, Mohini kills Rahu and holds his head in Her hand, whereas his body continues to run out of fear to escape from Her. She stops that body part with her leg and stands on it.

๐ŸšฉSo they sent an expert photographer to get His pictures. The photographer tried to secure Swami's permission to take His pictures but Swami never agreed. The photographer at last decided to take the pictures without His consent.

๐ŸŒบ First of all, Sati took the form of Kali. Her form was fearful, Her hair untied and loose, Her body the color of a dark cloud. She had deep-set eyes and eyebrows shaped like curved swords.
๐ŸŒบShe stood on a corpse, wore a garland of skulls, and earrings made from the bones of corpses. She had four hands โ€“ on one hand, she had the head of a skull, and the other a curved sword with blood dripping on it.
๐ŸŒบShe had mudras on Her other two hands โ€“ one giving freedom from fear and the other giving blessings. She roared and the ten directions were filled with that ferocious sound.
