SUPREMACY OF KALI🔻🔱

Devi gives her own description in the Kulachudami:

Kali says; Listen Deva, supremely blissful quintessence, the Lord of Kula, to the very essence of knowledge of ocean of Kula tantra, concealed by my Maya. Image
I am the Great Nature, consciousness & bliss.

Where I am, there are no Brahma, Hari, Shambhu or other devas, nor is there creation, maintenance or dissolution.

Where Iam, there is no attachment, happiness, sadness, liberation, goodness, faith, atheism, guru or disciple. Image
When i, desire creation, I cover myself with my Maya and become triple, becoming ecstatic in my divine play.

I am Vikarini, giving rise to the various things. Image
