Kali काली | Her Sword Falls Like a Verdict | Museum Poster

काली | Her sword is called jnana-khadga, the sword of wisdom, the storyteller says — and it never cuts what should live. Every fall of it removes only the illusions, the lies we tell ourselves, the masks we have grown afraid to take off. See how it rises against the heavens, against the swirling stars themselves. And beneath her, Shiva rests, his crescent moon glowing soft white, knowing the work she does is also his work. The work of love that looks fierce because it must, the work that lets the morning come.
