MOTHER KALI OF KODUNGALLUR

 

So mute acceptance of the legends brings consolation and paves ways for realisation than the hair - splitting arguments, producing more heat than light, only to end up in smoke. Among the many, it is this Kali that killed Daruka utilising the powers imparted to her by Lord Siva in addition the other six powerful gods, whereas it was. Durga responsible the death of Mahishashra, the other name for Daruka. 

Althogh the place of action or names of persons differ, the supression of evil is certain. If proceeded bearing this in mind, the place becomes visit - worthy and deities, adorable.  Now begins the story. The deva danava yuddha prolonged indefinitely, at times asuras subjugating the suras, or the vanquished turning victors with the help of Trio. 

In one of the battles the asuras were totally put to rout rather exterminated except two females Danamati and Darumati. That unlucky two prayed to Lord Brahma for reestablishment of their sway through proper progeny. Lord Brahma advised them to marry Mania Rudra and beget children to fulfil their ambitious. They obeyed.
