Legend of Kalibari Temple
Goddess Kali is worshipped with great devotion here in several forms. Some of these forms are Bhadrakali, Bhavani, Durga, Chamunda, Himavati, Kamakshi, Rudrarani, Parvati, Uma and Tara.

She is considered immensely important in Tantric practices and is also considered the Goddess of doomsday and death. She is the source of feminine energy also called Shakti or strength.
