prayer to mother kAli in english..

may dEvi kALi protect us all from evil both in and out, born and unborn, seen and unseen, known and unknown and give us the strength to succeed in the righteous path
Lead us to good from bad, to light from darkness and from death to life
Oh mother of your child, please help lift it to its peak and may it  fulfill its purpose of having taken this valuable birth as a human being
Allow not my thoughts to wander in evil directions
Allow not my actions to wander in evil directions
Allow not my thoughts to touch the evil boundaries
 Allow not my actions to touch the evil boundaries
Allow my thoughts to worship you
Grant only what I deserve
Grant only that which makes me worship you more
Steer my thoughts to you and hence to good
Steer my actions to worshiping you and hence to doing good
Make me understand Make me understand Make me understand

भयंकरि (bhayaMkari) she who creates fear, is fearful. She is most fearful to those who should be afraid of. She is most fearful for those who do no good. She is most fearful for those who is or support evil. She is most fearful for those who indulge in intoxications and adharma अभयंकरि (abhayaMkari) she who removes fear (&) she who is not fearful. She removes the fear of dark. She removes the fear of fighting in a world material, psychological and spiritual निर्भयंकरि (nirbhayaMkari) she who makes one fearless, grants fearlessness. She makes one fearless to face an evil enemy, a quality to approach the supreme truth and to understand the supreme truth  शक्तिस्वरूपिणि (shaktiswarUpiNi) she who has the form of shakti / energy having the form of dEvi kALi. she and pure energy have forms of each other. She is indistinguishable from energy and in-turn energy is indistinguishable from her ज्नानानंदमयि (jnAnAnaMdamayi) she who is filled with the bliss of supreme divine knowledge. she ever possesses one of the highest forms of supreme bliss which is jnaanaanaMda which is bliss of pure divine knowledge दिव्यहासिनि (divyahAsini) she who is with a divine smile. as a mother's smile is to her baby, so is maate kALi's smile to us all, divine, assuring, uplifting, energizing, cleansing and supreme ज्यॊतिरूपिणि (jyOtirUpiNi ) she who has the form of the lamp/light. being jnAnAnaMdamayi, she is also a form of divine light always ready to illumine us in the right path of dharma and pointing away from the path of adharma. She can do so because she is a form of light and knowledge and knowledge and light are synonymous जगज्जननि (jagajjanani) mother of the world. like a mother protecting her baby from the elements, she is constantly protecting us against the evil inside and outside of us, because she is a mother of the world

How to pray to kaali maate.

HOW TO PRAY TO KAALI MAATE

I simply couldn't find a better description of the dance of kALi maate.. Just plug it in, close your outer eyes and she will open your inner ones for you. Its so beautifully composed that you will cry if she comes in front of your mind and stays there for even a second.
 
HOW TO PRAY TO MOTHER KAALI
Play this music, close your eyes and try to imagine her. The higher the sincerity with which you try to imagine her, the more clear she appears to you. She is so beautiful, yet so wrathful. She is a mother to all that is / that will be good and also a nightmare to all that is / that will be evil. 

See her in front of your mind and while there she stands afloat glowing with divine wrath, knowledge and unconditional love, request her, pray to her with your head bowed and kneels down, to cleanse you of all evils. Pray to her and request to cleanse your heart and mind of evils like ill rotten thoughts, intoxicating habits like smoking, drinking and alike. Pray to her to make you equipped from within for whatever saadhana that you may wish to understake. Pray to her to help your saadhana to be a satsaadhana. Pray to her for concentration. Pray to her to help you become human again if have forgotten what it is to be human. Reiterate that you will see only that which is good, hear only that which is good, promote only that which is good and finally do only that which is good and live upto it. Remember, she will not help you if your thoughts are bad and are praying her to achieve bad things which are neither good for you nor for this world in this world or the next. If you approach her with evil intentions, remember, she will burn you from within. Feel her love, feel her motherly hands caressing you. Isn't she so unimaginably powerful, glowing with divine light, with a garland of blood painted heads and covered by severed hands of evils, full of divine knowledge so willing to be disseminated to the minds and hearts of those who submit and pray with sincerity.. Pray:
 
भयंकरि अभयंकरि निर्भयंकरि शक्तिस्वरूपिणि ज्नानानंदमयि दिव्यहासिनि ज्यॊतिरूपिणि जगज्जननि 
क्रुपया माम् पाहि मात्रु काळि ॥
दुष्टजीवालॊचनकाममनॆंद्रियज्नानाज्नानंधंतमॊर्नाशिनि सज्जीवालॊचनकाममनॆंद्रियज्नानानंदसत्सुपॊशिणि
क्रुपया माम् पाहि मात्रु काळि ॥
न काळि समॊ देविर्नकाळि समॊ मात्रुर्नकाळि समॊ गुरुर्नकाळि समॊबंधुर्नकाळि समॊ सखि
क्रुपया माम् पाहि मात्रु काळि ॥
May deVi kaaLi bless the good and burn the evil.
