Kali is the Hindu goddess associated with eternal energy.

"She who destroys". Kali means "the black one". Kali is considered the goddess of time and change. Although sometimes presented as dark and violent, her earliest incarnation as a figure of annihilation still has some influence.

She is also revered as Bhavatarini (literally "redeemer of the universe"). Kali is represented as the consort of Lord Shiva, on whose body she is often seen standing. She is the foremost among the Dasa Mahavidyas, ten fierce Tantric goddesses.
