Kali has another name, Muldakesi, which means complete freedom. The word Kali also means black, and Kali's color is black, the absolute black of the void. Another of Kali's many names is Digamber Ma, the sky clad mother. Kali is naked except for her skirt of human arms, and her necklace of fifty human heads. Fifty is the number of letters in the Sanskrit alphabet, from whose sounds Brahma created the world.
