Kalika Puran

Kalika Puran is a revered Hindu scripture connected to the worship of the goddess Kali. This text, one of the eighteen Mahapuranas, primarily focuses on the divine power of the Mother Goddess (Shakti) in her fearsome form.
The puran provides elaborate narratives about Kali’s origin, her connection with Shiva, and her role in the cosmic balance. It contains philosophic discussions, hymns of devotion, and detailed accounts of Kali worship practices.
The text is particularly significant in Bengal and Odisha regions, where it guides both spiritual practitioners and cultural traditions. As a comprehensive religious guide, it blends mythology, spiritual instruction, and philosophical concepts, making it a vital part of Hindu religious literature.
