Encountering Kali : in the margins, at the center, in the West /

This title explores one of the most remarkable divinities the world has seen - the Hindu goddess Ka„li„. She is simultaneously understood as a blood-thirsty warrior, a goddess of ritual possession, a Tantric sexual partner, and an all-loving, compassionate mother.
