Balkaran and van Brussel argue that wrathful episodes in both texts belong within an ultimately compassionate portrayal of the goddess. Their reading of the regional text is supplemented by fieldwork on Bhadrakali worship in Kerala.

Its opening teaching passes through a description of correctly performed fire offerings before arguing that ritual alone cannot provide the highest realization. At 1.2.4, Müller translates Kālī as “black” and Karālī as “terrific”: they are two of seven named tongues of sacrificial fire. This is an important lexical and religious comparison for a Kali collection, but the verse does not itself identify these flames with the later goddess Kali or establish a continuous history of her worship. The complete Upanishad allows the verse to be read within its argument rather than detached as a supposed account of goddess origins. The final division describes the knower of Brahman, the dissolution of limiting forms and the transmission of the teaching, ending with homage to the highest rishis. This record covers the entire six-section Muṇḍaka translation within Müller's larger Upanishads, Part II, not a separately printed volume or all the Upanishads in that collection.\n\nKALI-0120 — Kali Library Research Catalogue.\nAccess and reliability assessments below are supplied by the curator's 4–5 November 2026 research release, not a new independent verification.\n\nAuthor / attribution: Traditional Sanskrit Upanishad; translated by F.
