Among all the Deities (Gods and Goddesses) the Ten Mahavidyas have a very respectable place in the spiritual spheres. All these Goddesses are different forms of Adya Ma Shakti (Mother) who remain ever eager to bestow all favors upon devotees. Hence she has assumed these diverse forms which are capable of blessing one with different boons. These 10 forms are Kali, Tara, Chinnamasta , Shodashi Tripura Sundari, Bhuvneshwari, Tripura Bhairavi, Dhumavati, Baglamukhi, Matangi and Kamla. As per Todala Tantra chapter 10 Lord Shiva has said that Tara Devi is the blue form, Bagala is the tortoise incarnation, Dhumavati is the boar, Chinnamasta is Nrisimha, Bhuvaneshwari is Vamana, Matangi is the Rama form, Tripura is Jamadagni, Bhairavi is Balabhadra, Mahalakshmi is Buddha, and Durga is the Kalki form.

The first Mahavidya is Goddess Kali, seated on a corpse, with long tongue protruding out, greatly terrifying, laughing loudly, with fearful fangs, four arms holding a cleaver, a skull, and giving the mudras bestowing boons and dispelling fear, wearing a garland of skulls, her tongue rolling wildly, completely naked (digambara - clad in the directions), with just a garland of demon-hands round her waist, with heaped locks of a black cascade of hair. Thus one should meditate on Kali, dwelling in the centre of the cremation ground. The Eternal Night - Kali is mentioned as the first amongst the Mahavidyas. Black as the night (ratri) she has a terrible and horrific appearance. The word ratri means "to give," and is taken to mean "the giver" of bliss, of peace, of happiness. Chamunda Ma Kali blesses the worshipper like his son or daughter. Chamunda Roopa is for extreme protection against occult, Black magic and jealousy.Maha Kaali Shaligram | Kali Shaligram Worship

Kali is a divine mother in a ferocious form. She sent her power and energy in the form of Mother Gauri to free the Gods from two very dangerous demons Shumbh and Nishumbh. These demons have conquered the three worlds. Lord Shiva and Mother Gauri in their destructive form are known as Mahakala and Mahakali or Kali. Mahakali has a very large protruding tongue of Kali when she was killing the demons. To calm her Lord Shiva had to lie down on her feets to stop the devastation.
