(Sanskrit कलि or काली, “the black one, night, goddess of time”) In the sacred Vedas, this name refers to one of the seven tongues of Agni, the god of fire. The meaning has since changed to refer to the goddess Kali, the consort of Shiva.

The name Kali is derived from ka, the first consonant of Sanskrit, and which can mean “time, pleasure, light, sound, sun, air, soul, wealth, water, head, fire, body,” and much more.

The life, passion, and death of Krishna are similar to that of Jesus. – Samael Aun Weor, The Revolution of the Dialectic
