520 |a The article Goddess Kali in Western Culture - Non-religious Contexts deals with the interpretation of Hindu goddess Kali in the Western hemisphere - in popular culture, psychology, feminism and a little bit in neopaganism, leaving out Kali adaptation in Hindu diaspora and New Age circles for that would take up too much space of this article. Kali is a very mysterious and varied goddess in Hinduism - interpretations of Kali range from personification of a minor, militant goddess' anger in the Puranic literature to a loving Universal Mother in bhakti folk religion and the highest Divinity - the Brahman itself in certain tantric circles. The goddess is quite popular in Western hemisphere as well - one could say that Kali is the most recognized Hindu element between people that do not know anything about Hinduism. Her popularity may be connected to her dark, agressive and sexual - in traditionally Christian cultures the forbidden spheres of life - connotations. In Western culture, where we have either evil and dark or benevolent and light entities, goddess Kali is a unique precedent of dark and at the same time benevolent force. The above-mentioned reasons make Kali a suitable material for popular culture icon (from a decor on T-shirts to a prototype of movie heroes, from a lunch box sticker to a pseudonym of some western porno stars), "strong woman archetype" in feminism, and a variety of symbols in psychology - from "the dark mother" and risks of individuation process in analytical psychology to feminine hysteria and utterly destructive mass forces in psychoanalysis. Kali is attested in individual, spontaneous healing cases as well and also freely joins the neo-pagan "pantheon".
