Want change? Kali will change our self-centered ego view of reality. In the west we call her Mother Nature as a hag or sometimes caliauagh-simple teachings to real spritual liberation!

It is partly correct to say Kali is a goddess of death but She brings the death of the ego as the illusory self-centered view of reality. Nowhere in the Hindu stories is She seen killing anything but demons nor is She associated specifically with the process of human dying like the Hindu god Yama (who really is the god of death). It is true that both Kali and Shiva are said to inhabit cremation grounds and devotees often go to these places to meditate. This is not to worship death but rather it is to overcome the I-am-the-body idea by reinforcing the awareness that the body is a temporary condition. Shiva and Kali are said to inhabit these places because it is our attachment to the body that gives rise to the ego. Shiva and Kali grant liberation by removing the illusion of the ego. Thus we are the eternal I AM and not the body. This is underscored by the scene of the cremation grounds.

I see many people make the Ego out to be something that needs to be obliterated, and that never really happens when you actually go through intense "transformation" your Ego is transformed, and you have complete and utter compassion instead of demonizing a part of yourself.

Got any thoughts on Kali and not tyler?

I think she is only for personal enlightenment and freeing the soul from round after round of re-incarnation-
