Paragraph 50

In plain words

"Syamakali has much of a tender aspect; She grants boons and banishes fear. It is She who is worshipped in householders' homes. When there is epidemic, famine, earthquake, drought or flood, Rakshakali must be worshipped. Smasanakali is the form of destruction. She dwells in the cremation ground amid corpses, jackals, dakinis and yoginis. Streams of blood; a garland of heads round Her neck; a girdle of human hands round Her waist. When the world is destroyed, at the great dissolution, the Mother gathers up the seeds of creation. It is like the housewife who keeps a pot of odds and ends and stores all sorts of things in it." Keshab and everyone laughed.
