Description and curator notes
This twenty-two-verse hymn contains the name sequence beginning Kālī, Kapālinī, Kāntā, Kāmadā, and Kāmasundarī, which identifies the textual family used on KaliDevotion.com. The companion nāmāvalī arranges the names as 108 individual salutations. Names evoke lineage, desire, sacred places, feminine powers, and Kṛṣṇa connections. Introductory and concluding verses explain devotional use and protection. Website spellings and glosses require separate comparison with these Sanskrit witnesses.
