Re: Many-armed Hindu Goddess?

Re: Many-armed Hindu Goddess?

I am butting into this, and I did not get a chance to see if there were any
more replies... I am the Head Builder on a mud & recently got a request to
add in Kali. I did a BIT of research on her (and only her, not Shiva or
Ganeesha) Kali does have 4 arms...her is a short desc...

"Her idol is black besmeared with blood; she has red eyes, four arms with
blood-stained hands, matted hair huge fang-like teeth, and a protruding
tongue that drips with blood. She wears a necklace of skulls, earrings of
corpses, and is girdled with serpents. In one hand she has a scimitar, in
another the head of a demon which she holds by his hair, the third hand is
spread flatly open bestowing a blessing and in the fourth she holds another
weapon, usually a spear."
