ध्यान गलद्रक्तमुण्डावलीकण्ठमाला महोघोररावा सुदंष्ट्रा कराला । विवस्त्रा श्मशानालया मुक्तकेशी महाकालकामाकुला कालिकेयम् ॥१॥
sanskrit
(Salutations to devi Kalika) from her neck is hanging a garland of (severed) heads from which blood is dripping down, she is making a very terrific sound revealing her large teeth, and her appearance is extremely dreadful to look at, she is without any clothes and residing in the cremation ground; her hair is let loose and free (as is her entire appearance), her entire being is manifesting the great yearning to merge with mahakala (to take the devotees beyond samsara); she is Kalika, the great dark goddess.
